Description
Summary:In this paper, we study the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions to a class of multipoint boundary value problems for singular fractional differential equations with the p-Laplacian operator. Here, the nonlinear source term f permits singularity with respect to its time variable t. Some fixed-point theorems such as the Leray-Schauder nonlinear alternative, the Schauder fixed-point theorem, and the Banach contraction mapping principle and the properties of the Gauss hypergeometric function are used to prove our main results. And by employing the upper and lower solutions technique, we derive a new approach to obtain the maximal and minimal solutions to the given problem. Finally, we present some examples to demonstrate our existence and uniqueness results.
