Stability and Controllability of Coupled Neutral Impulsive ϱ-Fractional System with Mixed Delays

This study examines a comprehensive class of coupled nonlinear ϱ-Hilfer fractional neutral impulsive integro-differential systems with mixed delays and non-local initial conditions. The primary contribution of this study is the creation of a unified analytical framework that encompasses coupled interactions, neutral-type dependencies, and impulsive disturbances, which have been studied separately by researchers. We utilize the Banach contraction principle and Krasnoselskii’s fixed-point theorem to provide suitable conditions for the existence and uniqueness of solutions within the product space of piecewise continuous weighted functions. In addition to existence, we examine Ulam–Hyers–Rassias (UHR) stability using a generalized Gronwall inequality, which guarantees the system’s robustness against functional perturbations. We also develop a controllability framework and a feedback control law that steer the system towards the desired terminal states. The theoretical results are supported by a numerical simulation using a complex kernel, implemented via a modified predictor-corrector algorithm, which validates the practical effectiveness of the proposed control and stability outcomes.
