Abstract:

In this paper, the authors  consider the properties of Green's function for the nonlinear fractional differential equation boundary-value problem
Dα0+u(t)=f(t, u(t)), 0<t<1, 
u(0)=u(1)=u'(0)=u'(1)=0,
where 3<α≤4 is a real number, and Dα0+ is the standard Riemann-Liouville differentiation, and f: [0,1]×[0, ∞)→[0, ∞) is continuous.
 As an application of Green's function, the authors give some multiple positive solutions for nonlinear by means of some fixed-point theorem on cones.

Key words: Fractional differential equation, Boundary-value problem, Positive solution, Fractional Green’s function, Fixed-point theorem
