description This paper investigates the existence of positive solutions to a two-point boundary value problem (BVP) for singular fractional differential equations in Banach space and presents a number of new results. First, by constructing a novel cone and using the fixed point index theory, a sufficient condition is established for the existence of at least two positive solutions to the approximate problem of the considered singular BVP. Second, using Ascoli-Arzela theorem, a sufficient condition is obtained for the existence of at least two positive solutions to the considered singular BVP from the convergent subsequence of the approximate problem. Finally, an illustrative example is given to support the obtained new results.
