Abstract

This paper deals with existence and uniqueness of solutions for several boundary value problems of fractional differential equations with p-Laplacian operator using fixed-point theorems in cone and coincidence degree theory. The main results enrich and extend some existing literatures. Some examples are given to illustrate our main results.
