Abstract

This paper is devoted to study of dynamical systems involving nabla half derivative on an arbitrary time scale. We prove existence and uniqueness of the solution of such system supplied with a suitable initial condition. Both Riemann–Liouville and Caputo approaches to noninteger-order derivatives are covered. Under special conditions we present an explicit form of the solution involving a time scales analogue of Mittag–Leffler function. Also an algorithm for solving of such problems on isolated time scales is established. Moreover, we show that half power functions are positive and decreasing with respect to \(t-s\) on an arbitrary time scale.
