Description
Summary:Nonlinear scalar Riemann-Liouville fractional differential equations with a constant delay and impulses are studied and initial conditions and impulsive conditions are set up in an appropriate way. The definitions of both conditions depend significantly on the type of fractional derivative and the presence of the delay in the equation. We study the case of a fixed lower limit of the fractional derivative and the case of a changeable lower limit at each impulsive time. Integral representations of the solutions in all considered cases are obtained. Existence results on finite time intervals are proved using the Banach principle.
