Abstract In this paper, a general nonlinear discrete fractional boundary value problem is considered, of order between one and two. The main result is an existence theorem, proving the existence of at least one solution to the boundary value problem, subject to validity of a certain key inequality that allows unrestricted growth in the problem. The proof of this existence theorem is accomplished by using Brouwer's fixed point theorem as well as two other main results of this paper, namely, first, a result showing that the solutions of the boundary value problem are exactly the solutions to a certain equivalent integral representation, and, second, the establishment of solutions satisfying certain a priori bounds provided the key inequality holds. In order to establish the latter result, several novel discrete fractional inequalities are developed, each of them interesting in itself and of potential future use in different contexts. We illustrate the usefulness of our existence results by presenting two examples.

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 consider singular nonlinear Hadamard fractional boundary value problems. Using properties of Green’s function and a fixed point theorem, we show that the problem has positive solutions which blow up. Finally, some examples are provided to explain the applications of the results.

We discuss the existence of solution for the fully fourth-order boundary value problemu(4)=f(t,u,u′,u′′,u′′′),0≤t≤1,u(0)=u(1)=u′′(0)=u′′(1)=0. A growth condition onfguaranteeing the existence of solution is presented. The discussion is based on the Fourier analysis method and Leray-Schauder fixed point theorem.

We consider a discrete fractional boundary value problem of the formΔαu(t)=f(t+α-1,u(t+α-1)),  t∈[0,T]ℕ0:={0,1,…,T},  u(α-2)=0,  u(α+T)=Δ-βu(η+β),where1<α≤2,β>0,η∈[α-2,α+T-1]ℕα-2:={α-2,α-1,…,α+T-1}, andf:[α-1,α,…,α+T-1]ℕα-1×ℝ→ℝis a continuous function. The existence of at least one solution is proved by using Krasnoselskii's fixed point theorem and Leray-Schauder's nonlinear alternative. Some illustrative examples are also presented.

We study the existence of solutions for the boundary value problem-Δνy1(t)=f(y1(t+ν-1),y2(t+μ-1)),-Δμy2(t)=g(y1(t+ν-1),y2(t+μ-1)),y1(ν-2)=Δy1(ν+b)=0,y2(μ-2)=Δy2(μ+b)=0, where1<μ,ν≤2,f,g:R×R→Rare continuous functions,b∈N0. The existence of solutions to this problem is established by the Guo-Krasnosel'kii theorem and the Schauder fixed-point theorem, and some examples are given to illustrate the main results.

We consider a high-order three-point boundary value problem. Firstly, some new existence results of at least one positive solution for a noneigenvalue problem and an eigenvalue problem are established. Our approach is based on the application of three different fixed point theorems, which have extended and improved the famous Guo-Krasnosel’skii fixed point theorem at different aspects. Secondly, some examples are included to illustrate our results.

In this work, we explore the existence results for the hybrid Caputo–Hadamard fractional boundary value problem (CH-FBVP). The inclusion version of the proposed BVP with a three-point hybrid Caputo–Hadamard terminal conditions is also considered and the related existence results are provided. To achieve these goals, we utilize the well-known fixed point theorems attributed to Dhage for both BVPs. Moreover, we present two numerical examples to validate our analytical findings.

This work is devoted to the existence of positive solutions for a fractional boundary value problem with fractional integral deviating argument. The proofs of the main results are based on Guo-Krasnoselskii fixed point theorem and Avery and Peterson fixed point theorem. Two examples are given to illustrate the obtained results, ending the paper.

AbstractExistence results for the three-point fractional boundary value problem $$\begin{aligned}& D^{\alpha}x(t)= f \bigl(t, x(t), D^{\alpha-1} x(t) \bigr),\quad 0< t< 1, \\& x(0)=A, \qquad x(\eta)-x(1)=(\eta-1)B, \end{aligned}$$ Dαx(t)=f(t,x(t),Dα−1x(t)),0<t<1,x(0)=A,x(η)−x(1)=(η−1)B, are presented, where $A, B\in\mathbb{R}$A,B∈R, $0<\eta<1$0<η<1, $1<\alpha\leq2$1<α≤2. $D^{\alpha}x(t)$Dαx(t) is the conformable fractional derivative, and $f: [0, 1]\times\mathbb{R}^{2}\to\mathbb{R}$f:[0,1]×R2→R is continuous. The analysis is based on the nonlinear alternative of Leray–Schauder.
