Abstract.  In this paper, we establish the existence and uniqueness of a strong solution for a semilinear fractional differential equation by using Rothe’s method. Thereafter, we show the continuous dependence of the solution on the initial data and the stability of the solution.
Keywords: Rothe’s method; Fractional differential equation; Strong solution; a priori estimate.
