  • Dealing with high order coupled systems of FDEs through nonlinear p-Laplacian operator. We analyze existence, uniqueness & Hyer-Ulam stability (HUS) of the solutions by means of topological degree method. For this purpose, we transform the supposed problem into an integral system via Green�s function(s) and assume certain operator equivalent to the integral form of the problem. Then after, the results are proved with some necessary assumptions.
