Abstract

In this paper, a generalized Darbo’s fixed-point theorem associated with Hausdorff measure of noncompactness is established. Then we apply this new variant fixed-point theorem to study some fractional differential equations in Banach spaces via the technique of measure of noncompactness. Many novel existence and uniqueness results for solutions are obtained under the more general conditions.
