On the fractional version of Leibniz rule

Abstract

This manuscript is dedicated to prove a new inequality that involves an important case of Leibniz rule regarding Riemann-Liouville and Caputo fractional derivatives of order $\alpha\in(0,1)$. In the context of partial differential equations, the aforesaid inequality allows us to address the Faedo-Galerkin method to study several kinds of partial differential equations with fractional derivative in the time variable; particularly, we apply these ideas to prove the existence and uniqueness of solution to the fractional version of the 2D Stokes equations in bounded domains.
