Abstract

In this paper, we study the boundary value problem with anti-periodic boundary conditions involving the Caputo fractional \(q\)-derivative. By means of the Banach contraction mapping principle and Scheafer fixed point theorem, some results of the existence and uniqueness of solutions are obtained. At last, examples are presented to illustrate our main results.
