Abstract

We present two global existence results for an initial value problem associated to a large class of fractional differential equations. Our approach differs substantially from the techniques employed in the recent literature. By introducing an easily verifiable hypothesis, we allow for immediate applications of a general comparison type result from [V. Lakshmikantham, A.S. Vatsala, Basic theory of fractional differential equations, Nonlinear Anal. TMA 69 (2008), 2677–2682].
