Abstract

In this work, we consider a class of fractional stochastic differential system with Hilfer fractional derivative and Poisson jumps in Hilbert space. We study the existence and uniqueness of mild solutions of such a class of fractional stochastic system, using successive approximation theory, stochastic analysis techniques, and fractional calculus. Further, we study the existence of optimal control pairs for the system, using general mild conditions of cost functional. Finally, we provide an example to illustrate the obtained results.

1. Introduction

The subject of fractional calculus has gained importance and attractiveness due to its applications in widespread fields of engineering and science. Fractional calculus is successful in describing systems which have long-time memory and long-range interaction [13]. Fractional-Order Differential Equations (FODEs) models have been successfully applied in biology systems [3, 4], physics [5, 6], chemistry and biochemistry [7], hydrology [8], engineering [9, 10], medicine [11], finance [12], and control problems [13, 14]. In most cases, the models of FODEs seem to be more regular with the real events compared with integer-order models, because fractional integrals and derivatives allow the explanation of the hereditary and memory properties inherent in various processes and materials [15, 16]. Many authors described the fractional-order models with the most common definitions of fractional derivatives defined by Caputo and Riemann-Liouville sense [17].

Hilfer [5] proposed a general operator for fractional derivative, called “Hilfer fractional derivative,” which combines Caputo and Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives. Hilfer fractional derivative is performed, for example, in the theoretical simulation of dielectric relaxation in glass forming materials. Sandev et al. [18] derived the existence results of fractional diffusion equation with Hilfer fractional derivative which attained in terms of Mittag Leffler functions. Mahmudov and McKibben [19] studied the controllability of fractional dynamical equations with generalized Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative by using Schauder fixed point theorem and fractional calculus. Recently, Gu and Trujillo [20] reported the existence results of fractional differential equations with Hilfer derivative based on noncompact measure method. The set of two parameters in “Hilfer fractional derivative” of order and permits one to connect between the Caputo and Riemann-Liouville derivatives [17, 21, 22]. This set of parameters gives an extra degree of freedom on the initial conditions and produces more types of stationary states. Models with Hilfer fractional derivatives are discussed in [23, 24].

The deterministic models often fluctuate due to noise. Naturally, the extension of such models is necessary to consider stochastic models, where the related parameters are considered as appropriate Brownian motion and stochastic processes. The modeling of most problems in real situations is described by stochastic differential equations rather than deterministic equations. Thus, it is of great importance to design stochastic effects in the study of fractional-order dynamical systems. Chen and Li [25] reported the existence results of fractional stochastic integrodifferential equations with nonlocal initial conditions in Hilbert space. Wang [26] investigated the existence results of fractional stochastic differential equations by using Picard type approximation. Lu and Liu [27] studied, recently, the controllability of fractional stochastic hemivariational inequalities based on multivalued maps and fixed point theorem. The above-mentioned research papers discussed the detail of stochastic differential equations (SDEs) with Brownian motion, Although Brownian motion cannot be used to define the stochastic disturbances in some real systems such as the fluctuations in the financial markets and price dynamics of financial instruments with jumps (see [28]). The authors in [29] studied the existence results of jumps in stock markets and the foreign exchange markets which are based on SDEs with Poisson jumps. Ren et al. [30] reported the existence and stability results of time-dependent stochastic delayed differential equations with Poisson jumps. Recently, Rajivganthi and Muthukumar [31] studied the properties of almost automorphic solutions of fractional stochastic evolution equations with Poisson jumps with the help of solution operator.

To the best of our knowledge, the existence and uniqueness of mild solutions for fractional stochastic differential equations with Hilfer fractional derivative are an untreated topic in the present literature. Herein, we convert the deterministic fractional differential equations into a stochastic fractional differential equation with Hilfer fractional derivative. We then study the existence and uniqueness of mild solutions by using successive approximation. We study the existence and uniqueness of mild solutions by using successive approximation theory. This theory possesses some advantages of linearization for the nonlinear functional with respect to the state variables. We then study the existence of optimal control pairs for the system, using general mild conditions of cost functional.

Consider the fractional stochastic differential equations with Hilfer fractional derivative and Poisson jumps of the formHere, is the Hilfer fractional derivative: and . is the infinitesimal generator of a strongly continuous semigroup of bounded linear operators in Hilbert space The state variable is considered in with a norm and an inner product Let be another separable Hilbert space and is a given -valued Wiener process or Brownian motion with a finite trace nuclear covariance operator .

Frequently, the optimal control problems stand up in system engineering. The main goal of optimal control is to find, in an open-loop control, the optimal values of the control variables for the dynamic system which maximize or minimize a given performance index. The determination of optimal control is a difficult task and is open-ended due to the nonlinear nature of dynamic systems. If the FODEs are described in conjunction with a set of initial conditions and performance index, they become Fractional Optimal Control Problems (FOCPs). The FOCP refers to optimization of the performance index subject to dynamical constraints on the control and state which have fractional-order models. There has been some work done in the area of deterministic FOCPs in finite dimensional spaces [32, 33] and infinite dimensional cases [34, 35]. Ren and Wu [36] discussed the optimal control problem associated with multivalued SDEs with Levy jumps by using Yosida approximation theory. Ahmed [37] studied the existence and optimal control of stochastic initial boundary value problems subject to boundary noise. Rajivganthi et al. [38] investigated the optimal control results of fractional stochastic neutral differential equations in Hilbert space. Motivated by the work done by the authors [20, 35, 38], in this paper, we study additionally the sufficient conditions that guarantee the optimal control results for the fractional stochastic system (1).

This paper is prepared as follows. In Section 2, we provide some remarks, definitions, and lemmas which are useful to prove the main results. Suitable sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness of (1) are studied in Section 3. Optimal control results are discussed in Section 4. An example is given in Section 5 to verify the theoretical results. We then conclude the paper in the last Section.

Assume that Using , we have By definition of infimum, there exists a minimizing sequence feasible pair , such that as Since , is bounded. Thus, there exists and a subsequence extracted from (still called ) such that weakly in Moreover, from the convexity and closeness of and Mazur’s Theorem, we know that Suppose that and are the mild solutions of (28) corresponding to and , respectively. and satisfy the following equations, respectively: From the boundedness of and , Lemma 8, one can verify that there exists a positive number such that Then, for . Using the continuous operator and Lebesgue’s dominated convergence theorem, we have Consequently, as Thus, by and Balder’s theorem [40], we obtain This shows that attains its minimum at

6. Concluding Remarks

In this paper, we studied the existence of solutions and optimal control results of fractional stochastic differential equations with Hilfer fractional derivative and Poisson jumps. The existence and uniqueness of mild solutions for the system have been obtained by using the successive approximation theory and stochastic analysis techniques. New sufficient conditions for optimal control results of fractional stochastic control system have been deduced. Throughout an example, the effectiveness of the obtained results is proven, under suitable conditions, for fractional stochastic partial differential equations with Poisson jumps.

The optimal control analysis for fractional stochastic differential inclusions with distributed delays, time varying delays, and impulsive effects will be our future work.
