Summary

Introduction

In this work, using variational methods and critical point theory, we study the fractional difference boundary value problem. Atici and Eloe [ ] considered the existence of positive solutions for the following twopoint boundary value problem for a nonlinear finite fractional difference equation:. In [ ], the authors used the mountain pass theorem, a linking theorem, and Clark’s theorem to establish the existence of multiple solutions for a fractional difference boundary value problem with a parameter. We note that there are many papers in the literature [ – ] which discuss discrete problems via variational and critical point theory. In [ ], Tian and Henderson studied the nth order nonlinear difference equation n r(t – n) nx(t – n) + f t, x(t) = , t ∈ Z, and established some existence results for anti-periodic solutions under various assumptions on the nonlinearity. Assuming an Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz type condition, we show that problem ( . ) has many solutions if the nonlinearity is odd
