Positive solutions of higher order fractional integral boundary value problem with a parameter

In this paper, we study a higher-order fractional differential equation with integral boundary conditions and a parameter. Under different conditions of nonlinearity, existence and nonexistence results for positive solutions are derived in terms of different intervals of parameter. Our approach relies on the Guo–Krasnoselskii fixed point theorem on cones

On a singular Riemann–Liouville fractional boundary value problem with parameters

We investigate the existence of positive solutions for a nonlinear Riemann–Liouville fractional differential equation with a positive parameter subject to nonlocal boundary conditions, which contain fractional derivatives and Riemann–Stieltjes integrals. The nonlinearity of the equation is nonnegative, and it may have singularities at its variables. In the proof of the main results, we use the fixed point index theory and the principal characteristic value of an associated linear operator. A related semipositone problem is also studied by using the Guo–Krasnosel’skii fixed point theorem

Existence and asymptotic analysis of positive solutions for a singular fractional differential equation with nonlocal boundary conditions

In this paper, we focus on the existence and asymptotic analysis of positive solutions for a class of singular fractional differential equations subject to nonlocal boundary conditions. By constructing suitable upper and lower solutions and employing Schauder’s fixed point theorem, the conditions for the existence of positive solutions are established and the asymptotic analysis for the obtained solution is carried out. In our work, the nonlinear function involved in the equation not only contains fractional derivatives of unknown functions but also has a stronger singularity at some points of the time and space variables

Positive solutions for nonlinear singular differential systems involving parameter on the half-line

By using the upper-lower solutions method and the fixed-point theorem on cone in a special space, we study the singular boundary value problem for systems of nonlinear second-order differential equations involving two parameters on the half-line. Some results for the existence, nonexistence and multiplicity of positive solutions for the problem are obtained

A sufficient and necessary condition of existence of blow-up radial solutions for a k-Hessian equation with a nonlinear operator

In this paper, we establish the results of nonexistence and existence of blow-up radial solutions for a k-Hessian equation with a nonlinear operator. Under some suitable growth conditions for nonlinearity, the result of nonexistence of blow-up solutions is established, a sufficient and necessary condition on existence of blow-up solutions is given, and some further results are obtained.&nbsp

The convergence analysis and error estimation for unique solution of a p-Laplacian fractional differential equation with singular decreasing nonlinearity

© 2018, The Author(s). In this paper, we focus on the convergence analysis and error estimation for the unique solution of a p-Laplacian fractional differential equation with singular decreasing nonlinearity. By introducing a double iterative technique, in the case of the nonlinearity with singularity at time and space variables, the unique positive solution to the problem is established. Then, from the developed iterative technique, the sequences converging uniformly to the unique solution are formulated, and the estimates of the error and the convergence rate are derived

Multiple Positive Solutions of a Second Order Nonlinear Semipositone m

In this paper, we study a general second-order m-point boundary value problem for nonlinear singular dynamic equation on time scales uΔ∇(t)+a(t)uΔ(t)+b(t)u(t)+λq(t)f(t,u(t))=0, t∈(0,1)𝕋, u(ρ(0))=0, u(σ(1))=∑i=1m-2αiu(ηi). This paper shows the existence of multiple positive solutions if f is semipositone and superlinear. The arguments are based upon fixed-point theorems in a cone
