On asymptotic periodic solutions of fractional differential equations and applications.

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of solutions of fractional differential equations of the form D^{\alpha }_Cu(t)=Au(t)+f(t), u(0)=x, 0<\alpha \le 1, (*) where D^{\alpha }_Cu(t) is the derivative of the function u in the Caputo's sense, A is a linear operator in a Banach space \mathbb {X} that may be unbounded and f satisfies the property that \lim _{t\to \infty } (f(t+1)-f(t))=0 which we will call asymptotic 1-periodicity. By using the spectral theory of functions on the half line we derive analogs of Katznelson-Tzafriri and Massera Theorems. Namely, we give sufficient conditions in terms of spectral properties of the operator A for all asymptotic mild solutions of Eq. (*) to be asymptotic 1-periodic, or there exists an asymptotic mild solution that is asymptotic 1-periodic. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
