Abstract

UDC 517.927, 517.23

We establish the solvability conditions and propose an algorithm for the construction of solution of a weakly nonlinear boundary-value problem for the two-term differential equation with sequential Caputo derivative. A special case in which the sequential derivative is a combination of the ordinary derivative and the Caputo fractional derivative is analyzed.
