Abstract

Of concern is the Cauchy problems for fractional integro-differential equations with nonlocal initial conditions. Using a new strategy in terms of the compactness of the semigroup generated by the operator in the linear part and approximating technique, a new existence theorem for mild solutions is established. An application to a fractional partial integro-differential equation with a nonlocal initial condition is also considered.
