Abstract
In this paper, we study a new class of coupled systems of nonlinear generalized fractional differential equations complemented with coupled nonlocal Riemann–Stieltjes and generalized fractional integral boundary conditions. The nonlinearities also include the lower order generalized fractional derivatives of the unknown functions. We apply the Banach contraction mapping principle and Leray–Schauder alternative to derive the desired results. An illustrative example is also discussed. The results presented in this work are novel in the given configuration and yield some new results as special cases (for details, see the Conclusion section).
