Solvability and optimal controls of fractional delay evolution inclusions with Clarke subdifferential

This article investigates the solvability and optimal controls of systems monitored by fractional delay evolution inclusions with Clarke subdifferential type. By applying a fixed-point theorem of condensing multivalued maps and some properties of Clarke subdifferential, an existence theorem concerned with the mild solution for the system is proved under suitable assumptions. Moreover, an existence result of optimal control pair that governed by the presented system is also obtained under some mild conditions. Finally, an example is given to illustrate our main results.
