Positive solutions for a fractional boundary value problem with p-Laplacian operator

Abstract

In this paper, we are mainly concerned with positive solutions for a p-Laplacian fractional boundary value problem. By virtue of Jensen’s inequalities and some new properties of the Green function of the problem, we adopt the Krasnoselskii-Zabreiko fixed point theorem to establish the results of existence and multiplicity of the positive solutions. Finally, a uniqueness theorem is established by using a fixed point theorem of concave operator and an example is given to illustrate the result.
