NONLINEAR NEUTRAL CAPUTO-FRACTIONAL DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS WITH APPLICATIONS TO LOTKA-VOLTERRA NEUTRAL MODEL

Abstract

In this paper, we consider a nonlinear neutral fractional difference equations. By applying Krasnoselskii's fixed point theorem, sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions are established, also the uniqueness of solutions is given. As an application of the main theorems, we provide the existence and uniqueness of the discrete fractional Lotka-Volterra model of neutral type. Our main results extend and generalize the results that are obtained in Azabut.
