Qualitative Analysis of Nonlinear Systems Involving Hadamard-Type Fractional Derivatives with Nonlocal Boundary Conditions and Stability Properties

Abstract

This paper establishes a comprehensive analysis of a coupled system of nonlinear Hadamard-type fractional differential equations subject to generalized nonlocal integral boundary conditions. The distinct logarithmic kernel of the Hadamard derivative makes this framework particularly suitable for modeling scale-invariant processes and ultraslow diffusion phenomena. The existence and uniqueness of solutions are rigorously investigated using fixed point theory: Banach’s contraction principle ensures uniqueness, while the Leray-Schauder nonlinear alternative guarantees existence under more general growth conditions. Furthermore, the system is proven to be Ulam-Hyers stable, ensuring that approximate solutions remain close to exact solutions, which is crucial for the robustness of the model in practical applications. The theoretical findings are effectively validated through two detailed numerical examples, demonstrating the applicability of the established results to different classes of nonlinearities.OPEN ACCESS Received: 22/08/2025 Accepted: 03/11/2025
