Description
Summary:Abstract This paper concerns a new kind of fractional differential equation of arbitrary order by combining a multi-point boundary condition with an integral boundary condition. By solving the equation which is equivalent to the problem we are going to investigate, the Green’s functions are obtained. By defining a continuous operator on a Banach space and taking advantage of the cone theory and some fixed point theorems, the existence of multiple positive solutions for the BVPs is proved based on some properties of Green’s functions and under the circumstance that the continuous functions f satisfy certain hypothesis. Finally, examples are provided to illustrate the results.
