We discuss the existence of positive solutions to the following fractionalm-point boundary value problem with changing sign nonlinearityD0+αu(t)+λf(t,u(t))=0,0<t<1,u(0)=0,D0+βu(1)=∑i=1m-2ηiD0+βu(ξi), whereλis a positive parameter,1<α≤2,0<β<α-1,0<ξ1<⋯<ξm-2<1with∑i=1m-2ηiξiα-β-1<1,D0+αis the standard Riemann-Liouville derivative,fand may be singular att=0and/ort=1and also may change sign. The work improves and generalizes some previous results.

We investigate the problem of existence of positive solutions for the nonlinear third-order three-point boundary value problemu‴(t)+λa(t)f(u(t))=0,0<t<1,u(0)=u′(0)=0,u″(1)=∝u″(η), whereλis a positive parameter,∝∈(0,1),η∈(0,1),f:(0,∞)→(0,∞),a:(0,1)→(0,∞)are continuous. Using a specially constructed cone, the fixed point index theorems and Leray-Schauder degree, this work shows the existence and multiplicities of positive solutions for the nonlinear third-order boundary value problem. Some examples are given to demonstrate the main results.

We discuss the existence of positive solutions to a class of fractional boundary value problem with changing sign nonlinearity and advanced argumentsDαx(t)+μh(t)f(x(a(t)))=0,t∈(0,1),2<α≤3,μ>0,x(0)=x′(0)=0,x(1)=βx(η)+λ[x],β>0, and  η∈(0,1),whereDαis the standard Riemann-Liouville derivative,f:[0,∞)→[0,∞)is continuous,f(0)>0, h :[0,1]→(−∞,+∞), anda(t)is the advanced argument. Our analysis relies on a nonlinear alternative of Leray-Schauder type. An example is given to illustrate our results.

A discrete three-point boundary value problemΔ2xk−1+λfk(xk)=0,k=1,2,…,n, x0=0,axl=xn+1, is considered, where1≤l≤nis a fixed integer,ais a real constant number, andλis a positive parameter. A characterization of the values ofλis carried out so that the boundary value problem has the positive solutions. Particularly, in this paper the constantacan be negative numbers. The similar results are not valid for the three-point boundary value problem of differential equations.

We are concerned with the following nonlinear three-point fractional boundary value problem:D0+αut+λatft,ut=0,0<t<1,u0=0, andu1=βuη, where1<α≤2,0<β<1,0<η<1,D0+αis the standard Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative,at>0is continuous for0≤t≤1, andf≥0is continuous on0,1×0,∞. By using Krasnoesel'skii's fixed-point theorem and the corresponding Green function, we obtain some results for the existence of positive solutions. At the end of this paper, we give an example to illustrate our main results.

We discuss the existence of positive solutions of a boundary value problem of nonlinear fractional differential equation with changing sign nonlinearity. We first derive some properties of the associated Green function and then obtain some results on the existence of positive solutions by means of the Krasnoselskii's fixed point theorem in a cone.

We investigate the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for the following singular fractional three-point boundary value problemD0+αu(t)+f(t,u(t))=0, 0<t<1, u(0)=u′(0)=u′′(0)=0,u′′(1)=βu′′(η), where3<α≤4,D0+αis the standard Riemann-Liouville derivative andf:(0,1]×[0,∞)→[0,∞)withlim t→0+f(t,·)=∞(i.e.,fis singular att=0). Our analysis relies on a fixed point theorem in partially ordered metric spaces.
