Existence results of positive solutions to boundary value problem for fractional differential equation. (English) Zbl 1202.26018
By using the fixed point index, the existence, multiplicity and nonexistence of positive solutions to a class of boundary value problems for fractional differential equations of high oder is considered. An example is given to illustrate the main result.
