Multiplicity of positive solutions for fractional differential equation with \(p\)-Laplacian boundary value problems (Q341175): Difference between revisions

Summary: We investigate the existence of multiple positive solutions of fractional differential equations with \(p\)-Laplacian operator \[ \begin{aligned} & D_{a^+}^\beta(\phi_p(D_{a^+}^\alpha u(t))) = f(t, u(t)), \quad a < t < b, \\ & u^{\left(j\right)} \left(a\right) = 0, j = 0,1, 2, \ldots, n - 2, u^{(\alpha_1)}(b) = \xi u^{(\alpha_1)}(\eta), \phi_p(D_{a^+}^\alpha u(a)) = 0 = D_{a^+}^{\beta_1}(\phi_p(D_{a^+}^\alpha u(b))),\end{aligned} \] where \(\beta \in(1,2]\), \(\alpha \in(n - 1, n], n \geq 3\), \(\xi \in(0, \infty)\), \(\eta \in(a, b)\), \(\beta_1 \in(0,1]\), \(\alpha_1 \in \{1,2, \ldots, \alpha - 2 \}\) is a fixed integer, and \(\phi_p(s) = | s |^{p - 2} s, p > 1, \phi_p^{- 1} = \phi_q,(1 / p) +(1 / q) = 1\), by applying Leggett-Williams fixed point theorems and fixed point index theory.
