In this paper, we study some existence results for fractional differential equations subject to some kind of initial conditions. First, we focus on the linear problem and we give an explicit form of solutions by reduction to an integral problem. We analyze some properties of the solutions to the linear problem in terms of its coefficients. Then we provide examples of application of the mentioned properties. Secondly, with the help of this theory, we study the nonlinear problem subject to initial value conditions. By using the upper and lower solutions method and the monotone iterative algorithm, we show the existence and localization of solutions to the nonlinear fractional differential equation.
Keywords: Fractional differential equations, comparison results, upper and lower solutions, existence of solutions, monotone iterative technique.
