Existence of mild solutions for fractional nonautonomous evolution equations of Sobolev type with delay.

In this paper, we deal with a class of nonlinear fractional nonautonomous evolution equations with delay by using Hilfer fractional derivative, which generalizes the famous Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative. The definition of mild solutions for the studied problem was given based on an operator family generated by the operator pair [Formula: see text] and probability density function. Combining the techniques of fractional calculus, measure of noncompactness, and fixed point theorem with respect to k -set-contractive, we obtain a new existence result of mild solutions. The results obtained improve and extend some related conclusions on this topic. At last, we present an application that illustrates the abstract results.
