The Atılım University Department of Mathematics was founded in 2000 and it offers education in English. The Department offers students the opportunity to obtain a certificate in Mathematical Finance or Cryptography, aside from their undergraduate diploma. Our students may obtain a diploma secondary to their diploma in Mathematics with the Double-Major Program; as well as a certificate in their minor alongside their diploma in Mathematics through the Minor Program. Our graduates may pursue a career in academics at universities, as well as be hired in sectors such as finance, education, banking, and informatics. Our Department has been accredited by the evaluation and accreditation organization FEDEK for a duration of 5 years (until September 30th, 2025), the maximum FEDEK accreditation period achievable. Our Department is globally and nationally among the leading Mathematics departments with a program that suits international standards and a qualified academic staff; even more so for the last five years with our rankings in the field rankings of URAP, THE, USNEWS and WEBOFMETRIC.

Abstract

The problem of the existence and uniqueness of solutions of boundary value problems (BVPs) for a nonlinear fractional differential equation of order 2<alpha <= 3 is studied. The BVP is transformed into an integral equation and discussed by means of a fixed point problem for an integral operator. Conditions for the existence and uniqueness of a fixed point for the integral operator are derived viab-comparison functions on completeb-metric spaces. In addition, estimates for the convergence of the Picard iteration sequence are given. An estimate for the Green's function related with the problem is provided and employed in the proof of the existence and uniqueness theorem for the solution of the given problem. Illustrative examples are presented to support the theoretical results.
