Abstract: In this paper, we apply certain measure of noncompactness and fixed point theorem of Darbo type to
derive the existence and limit property of solutions to quadratic Erdélyi-Kober type integral equations of
fractional order with three parameters. Moreover, we also present the uniqueness and another existence
results of the solutions to the above equations. Finally, two examples are given to illustrate the obtained
results.

1. Introduction the traditional integer order calculus was mentioned al-
ready in 1695 by Leibnitz and L’Hospital. The subject
of fractional calculus has become a rapidly growing area
Fractional calculus has been introduced since the end of and has found applications in diverse fields ranging from
the nineteenth century by Liouville and Riemann, but the physical sciences, engineering to biological sciences and
concept of non-integer calculus, as a generalization of economics. It draws a great application in nonlinear oscil-
lations of earthquakes, many physical phenomena such as
