Ulam-Type Stability Results for Fractional Integro-Delay Differential and Integral Equations via the ψ-Hilfer Operator
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: In this article, we investigate a nonlinear ψ-Hilfer fractional order Volterra integro-delay differential equation (ψ-Hilfer FRVIDDE) and a nonlinear ψ-Hilfer fractional Volterra delay integral equation (ψ-Hilfer FRVDIE), both of which incorporate multiple variable time delays. We establish sufficient conditions for the existence of a unique solution and the Ulam–Hyers stability (U-H stability) of both the ψ-Hilfer FRVIDDE and ψ-the Hilfer FRVDIE through two new main results. The proof technique relies on the Banach contraction mapping principle, properties of the Hilfer operator, and some additional analytical tools. The considered ψ-Hilfer FRVIDDE and ψ-Hilfer FRVDIE are new fractional mathematical models in the relevant literature. They extend and improve some available related fractional mathematical models from cases without delay to models incorporating multiple variable time delays, and they also provide new contributions to the qualitative theory of fractional delay differential and fractional delay integral equations. We also give two new examples to verify the applicability of main results of the article. Finally, the article presents substantial and novel results with new examples, contributing to the relevant literature.
