Fractional Cauchy Problems for Infinite Interval Case-II

Abstract

We consider fractional abstract Cauchy problems on infinite intervals. A fractional abstract Cauchy problem for possibly degenerate equations in Banach spaces is considered. This form of degeneration may be strong and some convenient assumptions about the involved operators are required to handle the direct problem. Required conditions on spaces are also given, guaranteeing the existence and uniqueness of solutions. The fractional powers of the involved operator B X have been investigated in the space which consists of continuous functions u on [ 0 , ∞ ) without assuming u ( 0 ) = 0 . This enables us to refine some previous results and obtain the required abstract results when the operator B X is not necessarily densely defined.
