Nontrivial solutions for a nonlinear multi-point boundary value problem of fractional order. (English) Zbl 1197.34003

Summary: We investigate the existence of nontrivial solutions for a multi-point boundary value problem for fractional differential equations. Under certain growth conditions on the nonlinearity, several sufficient conditions for the existence of nontrivial solution are obtained by using Leray-Schauder nonlinear alternative. As an application, some examples to illustrate our results are given.
