Description
Summary:In this paper, we study nonlinear differential equations with Caputo fractional derivatives with respect to other functions and impulses. The main characteristic of the impulses is that the time between two consecutive impulsive moments is defined by random variables. These random variables are independent. As the distribution of these random variables is very important, we consider the Erlang distribution. It generalizes the exponential distribution, which is very appropriate for describing the time between the appearance of two consecutive events. We describe a detailed solution to the studied problem, which is a stochastic process. We define the p-exponential stability of the solutions and obtain sufficient conditions. The study is based on the application of appropriate Lyapunov functions. The obtained sufficient conditions depend not only on the nonlinear function and impulsive functions, but also on the function used in the fractional derivative. The obtained results are illustrated using some examples.
