Existence of solutions for a four-point boundary value problem of a nonlinear fractional differential equation

In this paper, we discuss a four-point boundary value problem for a nonlinear differential equation of fractional order. The differential operator is the Riemann-Liouville derivative and the inhomogeneous term depends on the fractional derivative of lower order. We obtain the existence of at least o...
