Fractional Langevin Equation Involving Two Fractional Orders: Existence and Uniqueness Revisited

We consider the nonlinear fractional Langevin equation involving two fractional orders with initial conditions. Using some basic properties of Prabhakar integral operator, we find an equivalent Volterra integral equation with two parameter Mittag–Leffler function in the kernel to the mentioned equat...
