    Fractional Differential Equations (FDE) are of immense significance as they are great contributors to research fields of applied sciences [1]. They have gained substantial popularity and importance due to their attractive applications in extensive areas of science and engineering [2,3]. In addition to this, Impulsive FDE (I-FDE) have also played an influential role in describing phenomena, particularly in modeling dynamics of populations subject to abrupt changes [4,5]. They provide a realistic framework of modeling systems in fields like control theory, population dynamics, biology, physics, and medicine [6,7]. Similarly, Delay Differential Equations (DDE) are significant because they have the ability to describe processes with retarded time. The importance of DDE in various sciences like biology, physics, economics, medical science, and social sciences has been acknowledged [8,9]. When the above-mentioned classes of equations come to a single platform, and when they are studied combined, they are then called Impulsive Delay FDE (ID-FDE). Such type of equations have been getting worthwhile attention from researchers in the present age. For the theory of ID-FDE and recent development on this topic, one can see [10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22] and the references therein.

    Recently, Khan et al. have defined fractional integral and derivative operators [23]. Unlike other fractional operators, they satisfy properties like continuity, boundedness, linearity and unify some previously-presented operators into a single form. They are defined as under:

    Definition 1 ([23]). Let ϕ be a function that is conformable integrable on the interval [p,q][0,). The left-sided and right-sided Generalized Conformable Fractional (GCF) integral operators σθKνp+ and σθKνq of order ν>0 with θ(0,1], σR, and θ+σ0 are defined by:

    σθKνp+ϕ(τ)=1Γ(ν)τp(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1ϕ(w)wσdθw,τ>p, (1.1)

    and

    σθKνqϕ(τ)=1Γ(ν)qτ(wσ+θτσ+θσ+θ)ν1ϕ(w)wσdθw,q>τ, (1.2)

    respectively, and σθK0p+ϕ(τ)=σθK0qϕ(τ)=ϕ(τ).

    The integral qpdθw, in the Definition 1, represents the conformable integration defined as [24]:

    qpϕ(w)dθw:=qpϕ(w)wθ1dw. (1.3)

    The associated left- and right-sided GCF derivative operators are defined as follows [23]:

    Definition 2. Let ϕ be a function that is conformable integrable on the interval [p,q][0,) such that θ(0,1], σR and θ+σ0. The left- and right-sided GCF derivative operators σθTνp+ and σθTνq of order ν(0,1) are defined, respectively, by:

    σθTνp+ϕ(τ)=τσΓ(1ν)Tθτp(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)νϕ(w)wσdθw,τ>p, (1.4)
    σθTνqϕ(τ)=τσΓ(1ν)Tθqτ(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)νϕ(w)wσdθw,q>τ, (1.5)

    and σθT0p+ϕ(τ)=σθT0qϕ(τ)=ϕ(τ). Here Tθ represents the θth-order conformable derivative with respect to τ, and it is defined as in the following definition.

    Definition 3 ([24]). Consider the real-valued function ϕ defined on the interval [0,). The θth-order conformable derivative Tθ of the function ϕ, where θ(0,1], is defined as:

    Tθϕ(w)={limϵ0ϕ(w+ϵw1θ)ϕ(w)ϵ,w(0,);limw0+Tθϕ(w),w=0. (1.6)

    The relation between ordinary derivative ϕ(w) and the conformable derivative Tθϕ(w), is given as follows [24]:

    Tθϕ(w)=w1θϕ(w). (1.7)

    The conformable operators have gained a considerable attention of many researchers in a very short span of time. Due to their classical properties, they have been used in various fields, for example one can see [25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36] and the references therein. The following Remark 1 highlights that how the GCF operators unify various early-defined operators. Here, the left-sided operators are only taking into account. A similar methodology can be carried out also for the right-sided operator.

    Remark 1. (1) The following well-known Katugampula fractional derivative operator is obtained when θ=1 is put in the Definition 2 [37]:

    σ1Tνp+ϕ(τ)=τσΓ(1ν)T1τp(τσ+1wσ+1σ+1)νϕ(w)wσdw,τ>p. (1.8)

    (2) For σ=0 in the Definition 2, the New Riemann-Liouville type conformable fractional derivative operator is obtained as given below [23]:

    0θTνp+ϕ(τ)=1Γ(1ν)Tθτp(τθwθθ)ν1ϕ(w)dθw,τ>p. (1.9)

    (3) Using the definition of conformable integral given in the Eq (1.3) and the L'Hospital rule, it is straightforward that when θ0 in Eq (1.9), we get the Hadamard fractional derivative operator as under [23]:

    00+Tνp+ϕ(τ)=1Γ(1ν)T0+τp(logτw)ν1ϕ(w)dww,τ>p. (1.10)

    (4) For θ=1 in Eq (1.9), the well-known Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative operator is obtained as under [23]:

    01Tνp+ϕ(τ)=1Γ(1ν)T1τp(τw)ν1ϕ(w)dw,τ>p. (1.11)

    (5) For the case ν=1,σ=0 in Definition 2, we get the conformable fractional derivatives. And when θ=ν=1, σ=0 we get ordinary derivatives [23].

    The inverse property of the newly introduced GCF derivative operators is given below, which will be used in the proofs of our results.

    Theorem 1 ([23]). Let σR, θ(0,1] such that σ+θ0 and ν(0,1). For any continuous function ϕ:[p,q][0,)R, in the domain of σθKνp+ and σθKνq we have:

    σθTνp+σθKνp+ϕ(r)=ϕ(r), (1.12)

    Similarly

    σθTνqσθKνqϕ(r)=ϕ(r). (1.13)

    One of the fundamental theorems in mathematical analysis, in the theory of double integrals, is Fubini's theorem. This theorem allows the order of integration to be changed in certain iterated integrals. This is stated as follows [38]:

    Theorem 2 (Fubini's Theorem). Let ϕ:SR2R is a continuous function on S:=[p1,q1]×[p2,q2]. Then

    q1p1q2p2ϕ(r,s)drds=q2p2q1p1ϕ(r,s)dsdr, (1.14)

    where s[p1,q1], r[p2,q2].

    The scope and novelty of the present paper is that it addresses a new class of generalized fractional impulsive delay differential equations. This class is defined using newly introduced GCF operators which are the generalizations of fractional operators of the types Katugampola, Riemann-Lioville, Hadamard, Riemann-Lioville's type, conformable and ordinary or classical operators [23]. That is, while considering the generalized problem containing GCF operators, we work with various (above-mentioned) operators at the same time. Therefore, the paper combines various previously defined operators (or work) into a single form and is expected to provide a unique platform for the researchers working with different operators in this field. Moreover, since researchers commonly face the problem of choosing a convenient approach or a suitable operator to solve a problem, thus this kind of study, in which one can work with several operators at a time, is helpful in this regard.

    In the present work, we start by stating the GCFDE with delay and impulse terms as under:

    {σθTντ+kϕ(τ)=f(τ,ϕτ),k=0,1,2,...m,τ;Δϕ(τk)=Ik(ϕ(τk)),k=1,2,3...m;ϕ(τ)=ψ(τ),τ[ω,0], (2.1)

    where σθTντ+k is the GCF derivative of order ν(0,1), θ(0,1] and σR where σ+θ0, ω is a non-negative real number and 0=τ0<τ1<τ2...<τm+1=T. Also f:×RR (i.e fC(×R,R)), where :=[0,T]{τ1,τ2,...τm}. Moreover, we fix 0=[τ0,τ1] and k=(τk,τk] for k=1,2,3...m. Further, Ik:RR, Δϕ(τk)=ϕ(τ+k)ϕ(τk), where ϕ(τk) and ϕ(τ+k) denotes the left and right hand limits of the function ϕ at the point τk respectively such that ϕ(τk)=ϕ(τk). If ϕ:[ω,T]R, then for any τ:=[0,T], define ϕτ by ϕτ(η)=ϕ(τ+η), where η[ω,0]. Also ψ:[ω,0]R is such that ψ(0)=0.

    Also we define BC(A)={ϕ:A:=[ω,T]R}, it is easy to show that BC(A) is a Banach space with the norm defined by ||ϕ(τ)||=supτA|ϕ(τ)|.

    A motivation to study the system in Eq (2.1), as compare to other systems in the literature, is that it contains fractional operators having such properties which are not satisfied by those obtained earlier [24]. These operators are simple, friendly (while dealing with them) and have properties analogous to ordinary derivative and integral operators [23]. Moreover, there are some classes of differential equations which cannot be solved easily using previous definitions of fractional derivatives. An example of such type of equation has been given by Khalil et. al., in the paper [24]. Therefore, to establish results related to the solution of such type of problems, we have chosen a generalized problem in the form of Eq (2.1), which covers equations of the type given in [24] as well others in the literature.

    To establish our main results, first we need to prove the following lemma.

    Lemma 1. Let ϕ:[p,q][0,)R be a conformable integrable function. Then for 0<ν<1, θ(0,1], σR such that σ+θ0, we have:

    σθKνp+σθTνp+ϕ(r)=ϕ(r)ϕ(p),r[p,q]. (2.2)

    Similarly

    σθKνqσθTνqϕ(r)=ϕ(q)ϕ(r),r[p,q]. (2.3)

    Proof. First using definition of the integral operator σθKνp+ (Eq (1.1)), then of the derivative operator σθTνp+ (Eq (1.4)), and then definition of conformable derivative and integral operators (Eq (1.7) and Eq (1.3)) in sequence, we have:

    σθKνp+σθTνp+ϕ(r)=1Γ(ν)rp(rσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1σθTνp+ϕ(w)wσdθw=1Γ(1ν)Γ(ν)rp(rσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1Tθwp(wσ+θsσ+θσ+θ)νϕ(s)sσdθsdθw=1Γ(1ν)Γ(ν)rp(rσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1ddwwp(wσ+θsσ+θσ+θ)νϕ(s)sσ+θ1dsdw=σ+θΓ(1ν)Γ(ν)rp(rσ+θwσ+θ)ν1I(w)dw, (2.4)

    where

    I(w)=ddwwp(wσ+θsσ+θ)νsσ+θ1ϕ(s)ds.

    To find the value of I(w), Let duds=u(s)=sσ+θ1(wσ+θsσ+θ)ν, v(s)=ϕ(s). Using integration by parts formula, we get:

    wpu(s)v(s)ds=u(p)v(p)wpu(s)v(s)ds=u(p)v(p)+wp(wσ+θsσ+θ)ν+1(σ+θ)(ν+1)ϕ(s)ds. (2.5)

    This means that:

    I(w)=ddwwpu(s)v(s)ds=ddwwp(wσ+θsσ+θ)ν+1(σ+θ)(ν+1)ϕ(s)ds. (2.6)

    Thanks to Lebnitz rule of differentiating integral:

    wwpϕ(w,s)ds=ϕ(w,w)+wpwϕ(w,s)ds.

    We have from Eq (2.6):

    I(w)=wp(wσ+θsσ+θ)νwσ+θ1ϕ(s)ds. (2.7)

    Putting value of I(w) in Eq (2.4), we get:

    σθKνp+σθTνp+ϕ(r)=σ+θΓ(1ν)Γ(ν)rpwp(rσ+θwσ+θ)ν1(wσ+θsσ+θ)νwσ+θ1ϕ(s)dsdw. (2.8)

    Switching the order of integration (using Fubini's Theorem) and changing variables to u by defining wσ+θ=sσ+θ+(rσ+θsσ+θ)u, we have:

    σθKνp+σθTνp+ϕ(r)=1Γ(1ν)Γ(ν)rp10uν(1u)ν1ϕ(s)dudθs=rpϕ(s)ds=ϕ(r)ϕ(p), (2.9)

    where in the last step fundamental theorem of calculus has been used and in the second last step definition of Euler Beta function B and its relation with Gamma function have been used as under:

    10uν(1u)ν1du=B(ν,1ν)=Γ(ν)Γ(1ν). (2.10)

    The proof of the Eq (2.3) is same to the procedure developed for the proof of Eq (2.2). It can easily be obtained by first applying the definition of σθKνq and then of σθTνq. The rest of the process is same as above. This completes our proof.

    To proceed further, we need to prove another lemma, which transforms our proposed generalized problem to an integral equation as under:

    Lemma 2. Let fC(,R) and σθTντ+kϕ(τ) denotes the νth-order GCF derivative of the function ϕBC(A). Then ϕ is a solution of the problem:

    {σθTντ+kϕ(τ)=f(τ),k=0,1,2,...m,τ;Δϕ(τk)=Ik(ϕ(τk)),k=1,2,3...m;ϕ(τ)=ψ(τ),τ[ω,0], (2.11)

    if and only if ϕ satisfies the following integral equation:

    ϕ(τ)={ψ(τ),τ[ω,0];1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw+kj=1Ij(ϕ(τj))+k1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw,τk,k=0,1,2,...m. (2.12)

    Proof. Firstly, suppose that ϕ satisfies Eq (2.11). Then for τ[ω,0] the result follows directly. For k=0, we have from Eq (2.11) (taking into account τ0=0) that:

    σθTν0+ϕ(τ)=f(τ),τ0=[τ0,τ1]. (2.13)

    Now applying the operator σθKν0+ from the left to both sides of the Eq (2.13) and using Eq (2.2) (keeping in mind that ϕ(0)=0) we have:

    ϕ(τ)=1Γ(ν)τ0(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw,τ0, (2.14)

    which is Eq (2.12) for k=0.

    Now when k=1 in Eq (2.11), we have I1(ϕ(τ1))=ϕ(τ+1)ϕ(τ1), using Eq (2.14) and also we know that ϕ(τ1)=ϕ(τ1), thus:

    ϕ(τ+1)=I1(ϕ(τ1))+1Γ(ν)τ10(τσ+θ1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw. (2.15)

    Also we have

    σθTντ+1ϕ(τ)=f(τ),τ(τ1,τ2]. (2.16)

    Applying the operator σθKντ+1 to both sides of the Eq (2.16), using Eq (2.2) and then putting values from Eq (2.15), we get for τ1=(τ1,τ2]:

    ϕ(τ)=ϕ(τ+1)+1Γ(ν)ττ1(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw=I1(ϕ(τ1))+1Γ(ν)τ10(τσ+θ1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw+1Γ(ν)ττ1(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw, (2.17)

    which is Eq (2.12) for k=1.

    Similarly for k=2, we have from Eq (2.11), ϕ(τ+2)=ϕ(τ2)+I2(ϕ(τ2))=ϕ(τ2)+I2(ϕ(τ2)). Using Eq (2.17):

    ϕ(τ+2)=ϕ(τ2)+I2(ϕ(τ2))=I1(ϕ(τ1))+1Γ(ν)τ10(τσ+θ1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw+1Γ(ν)τ2τ1(τσ+θ2wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw+I2(ϕ(τ2))=2j=1Ij(ϕ(τj))+1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw. (2.18)

    Also from Eq (2.11):

    σθTντ+2ϕ(τ)=f(τ),τ(τ2,τ3]. (2.19)

    Applying the operator σθKντ+2 to both sides of the Eq (2.19), using Eq (2.2) and then using Eq (2.18) we have for τ2=(τ2,τ3]:

    ϕ(τ)=σθKντ+2f(τ)+ϕ(τ+2)=1Γ(ν)ττ2(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw+2j=1Ij(ϕ(τj))+1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw, (2.20)

    which is Eq (2.12) for k=2.

    Continuing in the same way, the solution ϕ(τ) for τk,k=0,1,2,3...m, can be generally written as:

    ϕ(τ)=1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw+kj=1Ij(ϕ(τj))+k1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw. (2.21)

    Conversely, if ϕ satisfies Eq (2.12), the proof is easy and it can be obtained by direct computations. Suppose for τ[ω,0], once again the result follows directly. Now we check for τk. For this when k=0, the Eq (2.12) implies that for τ0=[τ0,τ1]:

    ϕ(τ)=1Γ(ν)ττ0=0(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw=σθKντ+0f(τ). (2.22)

    Applying the operator σθTντ+0 to both sides of Eq (2.22) using Eq (1.12) we have:

    σθTντ+0ϕ(τ)=f(τ),τ[τ0,τ1]. (2.23)

    Similarly when k=1, we have from Eq (2.12):

    ϕ(τ)=1Γ(ν)ττ1(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw+I1(ϕ(τ1))+1Γ(ν)τ1τ0(τσ+θ1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw,τ(τ1,τ2]. (2.24)

    Applying the operator σθTντ+1 to both sides of Eq (2.24) using the Eq (1.12) we have:

    σθTντ+1ϕ(τ)=f(τ),τ(τ1,τ2]. (2.25)

    Since ϕ(τ+1) denotes right hand limit of the function ϕ at the point τ1, thus from the Eq (2.24), we get:

    ϕ(τ+1)=I1(ϕ(τ1))+1Γ(ν)τ1τ0(τσ+θ1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw. (2.26)

    Also for τ=τ1, we can write from Eq (2.22):

    ϕ(τ1)=ϕ(τ1)=1Γ(ν)τ1τ0=0(τσ+θ1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w)wσdθw. (2.27)

    Combining Eq (2.27) and Eq (2.26):

    I1(ϕ(τ1))=ϕ(τ+1)ϕ(τ1). (2.28)

    Similarly for k=2,3,4...m, the procedure is same as above. This completes the proof.

    We set S0={z/zC(,R),z(0)=0}. For each zS0, we define the function ¯z by:

    ¯z(τ)={z(τ),τ;0,τ[ω,0]. (2.29)

    If ϕ is a solution of Eq (2.1), then ϕ(.) can be decomposed as ϕ(τ)=¯z(τ)+g(τ) for τ[ω,T], which implies that ϕτ=¯zτ+gτ, for τ[0,T], where:

    g(τ)={0,τ;ψ(τ),τ[ω,0]. (2.30)

    Therefore taking into account the above Lemma 2 and the definition of ϕτ, we may say that the problem in Eq (2.1) can be transformed into the following fixed point operator, Θ=S0R,

    Θz(τ)=1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,¯zw+gw)wσdθw+kj=1Ij(¯z(τj))+k1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,¯zw+gw)wσdθw, (2.31)

    where τk,k=0,1,2,3...m.

    In the following theorem we prove our main result.

    Theorem 3. Consider the functions f:×RR and Ik:RR, and let the following conditions hold:

    (1) There exists a continuous function, h:[0,T]R+, such that

    |f(τ,aτ)f(τ,bτ)|h(τ)supw[0,τ]|a(w)b(w)|,a,bR,τ[0,T]. (2.32)

    (2) There exists a constant Mk>0, such that

    |Ik(a)Ik(b)|Mk|ab|,k=1,2...m;m+1i=1Tν(σ+θ)hi(σ+θ)νΓ(ν+1)+mj=1Mj<1,hk=supτ[0,T]h(τ). (2.33)

    (3) There exists a constant L>0, such that |f(τ,gτ)|L, where g is defined as in Eq. (2.30).

    Then there exist a unique solution of the Eq (2.1) in the set S0.

    Proof. Using the method of successive approximations, we define a sequence of functions zn:[0,T]R,n=0,1,2... as follows:

    z0(τ)=0,zn(τ)=Θzn1(τ). (2.34)

    Since z0(τ)=0, we can say from Eq (2.29) that ¯z0(w)=z0(w)=0,w=[0,T], then we have:

    |z1(τ)z0(τ)|=|Θz0(τ)z0(τ)|1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1|f(w,g(w))|wσdθw+kj=1|Ij(0)|+k1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1|f(w,g(w))|wσdθwL(τσ+θτσ+θk)ν(σ+θ)νΓ(ν+1)+ki=1L(τσ+θiτσ+θi1)ν(σ+θ)νΓ(ν+1)+kj=1|Ij(0)|k+1i=1L(τσ+θiτσ+θi1)ν(σ+θ)νΓ(ν+1)+kj=1|Ij(0)|:=Θ0. (2.35)

    Moreover

    |zn(τ)zn1(τ)|=|Θzn1(τ)Θzn2(τ)|1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1|f(w,(¯zn1)w+gw)f(w,(¯zn2)w+gw)|wσdθw+k1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1|f(w,(¯zn1)w+gw)f(w,(¯zn2)w+gw)|wσdθw+kj=1|Ij(¯zn1)(τj)Ij(¯zn2)(τj)|

    which shows that ||znzn1||Θ1||zn1zn2||, with Θ1<1. It can be seen that for any 0<n<t, we have:

    ||ztzn||||zn+1zn||+||zn+2zn+1||+||zn+3zn+2||...+||ztzt1||(Θn1+Θn+11+Θn+21...+Θt11)||z1z0||=Θn11Θ1||z1z0||. (2.37)

    For large values of n,t, when n, then from above inequality Eq (2.37), it is clear that ||ztzn||0. This implies that zn is a cauchy sequence in the Banach space BC(). By definition of the Banach space, since it is a complete normed linear space, where every cauchy sequence converges to a limit in it (in our case say z) so ||znz||0, as n. Which shows that zn(τ) is uniformly convergent to z(τ).

    Next we will show that z(τ) is a solution of the Eq (2.1). Keeping the Eq (2.29) and Eq (2.30) in mind, we proceed:

    |1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,(¯zn)w+gw)wσdθw1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,¯zw+gw)wσdθw|1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1|f(w,(¯zn)w+gw)f(w,¯zw+gw)|wσdθw1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1h(w)supx[0,w]|¯zn(x)¯z(x)|wσdθw=1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1h(w)supx[0,w]|zn(x)z(x)|wσdθw. (2.38)

    Since zn(τ)z(τ), as n. By definition of convergence, for any ϵ>0, there exists a sufficiently large number p0>0, such that for n>p0, we have

    |zn(x)z(x)|<min{(σ+θ)νΓ(ν+1)ϵmi=0hiT(σ+θ)ν,ϵmj=1Mj}. (2.39)

    Therefore, using Eq (2.38) we get:

    |1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,((¯zn)w+gw)wσdθw1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,¯zw+gw)wσdθw|<ϵ. (2.40)

    And also

    |k1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,((¯zn)w+gw)wσdθwk1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,¯zw+gw)wσdθw|k1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1|f(w,(¯zn)w+gw)f(w,¯zw+gw)|wσdθwk1i=0h(τi)(τ(σ+θ)νiτ(σ+θ)νi1)Γ(ν+1)(σ+θ)νsupx[0,w]|zn(x)z(x)|dθw<ϵ. (2.41)

    Also

    |kj=1Ij(¯zn(τj))kj=1Ij(¯z(τj))|kj=1Mj|¯zn(τj)¯z(τj)|=kj=1Mj|zn(τj)z(τj)|<ϵ. (2.42)

    In consequence, we can see that for a sufficiently large number n>p0:

    |z(τ)Θz(τ)||z(τ)zn+1(τ)|+|zn+1(τ)Θzn(τ)|+|Θzn(τ)Θz(τ)||z(τ)zn+1(τ)|+|zn+1(τ)[1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,((¯zn)w+gw)wσdθw+k1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,((¯zn)w+gw)wσdθw+kj=1Ij(¯zn(τj))]| (2.43)
    +|1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,((¯zn)w+gw)wσdθw+k1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,((¯zn)w+gw)wσdθw+kj=1Ij(¯zn(τj))[1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,((¯z)w+gw)wσdθw+k1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1f(w,((¯z)w+gw)wσdθw+kj=1Ij(¯z(τj))]| (2.44)

    using Eq. (2.40), Eq (2.41) and Eq (2.42) we get that |z(τ)Θz(τ)|0. This shows that z(τ) is the solution of Eq (2.1).

    Now we show that the solution is unique. On contrary suppose that there exists two solutions z1 and z2 of Eq (2.1). Then

    |z1(τ)z2(τ)|1Γ(ν)ττk(τσ+θwσ+θσ+θ)ν1h(w)supx[0,w]|¯z1(x)¯z2(x)|wσdθw+k1i=01Γ(ν)τi+1τi(τσ+θi+1wσ+θσ+θ)ν1h(w)supx[0,w]|¯z1(x)¯z2(x)|wσdθw+kj=1Ij|¯z1(τj)¯z2(τj)|(v+1p=1hpTν(σ+θ)(σ+θ)νΓ(ν+1)+vq=1Mq)||z1z2||. (2.45)

    Using the condition 2 in the theorem hypothesis, the uniqueness of the solution of Eq (2.1) follows immediately, which completes the proof.

    To illustrate the obtained results, some examples are presented in this section.

    Example 1. A particular GCF differential equation with delay and impulse is considered as follows:

    {11T12τ+kϕ(τ)=1(10+τ)2|ϕτ|(1+|ϕτ|),τ[0,2],τ34,k=0,1;Δϕ(34)=|ϕ(34)|12+|ϕ(34)|;ϕ(τ)=ψ(τ)=eτ12,τ[ω,0], (3.1)

    where ω is a non-negative constant. Here, σ=1,θ=1,ν=12,τ0=0,τ1=34,τ2=T=2,f(τ,ϕτ)=|ϕτ|(10+τ)2(1+|ϕτ|) and I(ϕ)=|ϕ|12+|ϕ| are fixed in Eq (2.1). Moreover ϕτ(s)=ϕ(τ+s), for s[ω,0], τ[0,2], ϕ[0,).

    To check whether a unique solution of the problem in Eq (3.1) exists or not, we have to verify all the three conditions of the Theorem 3. We consider:

    |f(τ,aτ)f(τ,bτ)|=1(10+τ)2||aτ|1+|aτ||bτ|1+|bτ|||aτbτ|(10+τ)2h(τ)supw[0,τ]|a(w)b(w)|, (3.2)

    where h(τ)=1(10+τ)2, which shows that the condition 1 of Theorem 3 is satisfied.

    Also we have:

    |I(a)I(b)|=12|ab|(12+a)(12+b)112|ab|,a,b>0, (3.3)

    where M1=112, also from above h1=supτ[0,2]h(τ)=supτ[0,2]1(10+τ)2=1100. Now we can see by putting values of all the parameters that:

    m+1i=1hiTν(σ+θ)(σ+θ)νΓ(ν+1)+mi=1Mi<1, (3.4)

    which shows that the condition 2 of Theorem 3 is also satisfied.

    Finally:

    f(τ,ϕτ)=|ϕτ|(10+τ)2(1+|ϕτ|)1(10+τ)21100,τ[0,2]. (3.5)

    So the condition 3 of Theorem 3 is also satisfied.

    Now using the Theorem 3, it is concluded that the solution of the Eq (3.1) exists and it is unique.

    Example 2. Consider the following ID-FDE containing GCF derivative operator of order 23, with the parameters σ=100,θ=50.

    {10050T23k+ϕ(τ)=eτ(50+|ϕτ|)(9+eτ),τ[0,1],τ12;Δϕ(12)=|ϕ(¯12)|300+|ϕ(¯12)|;ϕ(τ)=ψ(τ)=eτ12,τ[ω,0]. (3.6)

    To check whether there exist a unique solution for the equation (3.6), we proceed as follows. Since the Eq (3.6) is a special case of the Eq (2.1) with f(τ,ϕ)=eτ(9+eτ)(50+|ϕτ|), for τ[0,1],τ12, also I(ϕ)=|ϕ|300+|ϕ|, and ψ(τ)=eτ12, for τ[ω,0]. All we have to do is to verify the three conditions of Theorem 3. To check this, we first consider:

    |f(τ,aτ)f(τ,bτ)|eτ|aτbτ|9+eτh(τ)supw[0,τ]|a(w)b(w)|, (3.7)

    where h(τ)=eτ9+eτ, and h=supτ[0,1]h(τ)=110, which shows that the condition 1 of Theorem 3 is satisfied.

    Also we have:

    |I(a)I(b)|=300|ab|(300+a)(300+b)1300|ab|,a,b>0, (3.8)

    where:

    v+1p=1hpTν(σ+θ)(σ+θ)νΓ(ν+1)+vq=1Mq=1300(150)23Γ(53)+1300<1. (3.9)

    Thus the condition 2 of Theorem 3 also holds true.

    Finally:

    f(τ,ϕτ)=eτ(50+|ϕτ|)(9+eτ)eτ9+eτ110, (3.10)

    where τ[0,1]. So the condition 3 of Theorem 3 is also satisfied.

    Thus using Theorem 3, it is established that solution of the Eq (3.6) exists and it will be unique.

    Example 3. Consider another ID-FDE containing GCF derivative operator of order 37, with the parameters σ=2,θ=5.

    {25T37k+ϕ(τ)=τ(τ218)2100(15+|ϕτ|+12cosτ),τ[0,2],τ32;Δϕ(32)=14arctanϕ(32);ϕ(τ)=ψ(τ)=e3τe3τ3,τ[ω,0]. (3.11)

    To verify existence of a unique solution for the Eq (3.11), we proceed as follows. Since the Eq (3.11) is a special case of the Eq (2.1) with f(τ,ϕ)=τ(τ218)2100(15+|ϕτ|+12cosτ), for τ[0,2],τ32, also I(ϕ)=14arctanϕ(32), and ψ(τ)=e3τe3τ3, for τ[ω,0]. We have to verify the three conditions of Theorem 3. To check this, we first consider:

    |f(τ,aτ)f(τ,bτ)|τ(τ218)2100|aτbτ|h(τ)supw[0,τ]|a(w)b(w)|, (3.12)

    where h(τ)=τ(τ218)2100, and h=supτ[0,2]h(τ)=9613200, which shows that the condition 1 of Theorem 3 is satisfied.

    Also we have:

    |I(a)I(b)|=14|arctanaarctanb|=14|arctan(ab1+ab)|π8|ab|,a,b>0, (3.13)

    where:

    v+1p=1hpTν(σ+θ)(σ+θ)νΓ(ν+1)+vq=1Mq=961π3200×(150)23Γ(53)+π8<1. (3.14)

    Thus the condition 2 of Theorem 3 also holds true.

    Finally:

    f(τ,ϕτ)=f(τ,ϕ)=τ(τ218)2100(15+|ϕτ|+12cosτ)<τ(τ218)21009613200, (3.15)

    where τ[0,2]. So the condition 3 of Theorem 3 is also satisfied.

    Hence in the light of Theorem 3, it can be claimed that solution of the Eq (3.11) will exist and it will be unique.

    A new generalized class of ID-FDE has been constructed successfully. A sufficient criterion for the existence and uniqueness of the solution of this type of systems have been developed. The results have been supported by the successive approximation method. All the results have been given in terms of newly introduced GCF operators. To illustrate the obtained results, some particular examples have been presented. The present attempt also allows direct applications of the obtained results to FDE of the types Katugampola, Riemann-Liovilles, Hadamard, New Riemann-Lioville's, conformable and ordinary differential equations, which can be considered as special cases of our established results.

    Since there exist many fractional derivative and integral operators, which have been defined with the passage of time. Each operator satisfies some useful properties and also has some flaws. In most of the cases there arises a confusion regarding selection of a suitable fractional operator for solving a given mathematical problem. In this context, there is a need for such operators that combine most of the previously defined operators into a single form. In this regard, GCF operators nicely fulfill this criterion using which one can work with multiple number of operators at the same time.
