Tóm tắt

In this paper, we study the p-Laplacian model involving the Caputo fractional derivative with Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions. Using a fixed point theorem, we prove the existence of at least three solutions of the model. As an application, an example is included to illustrate the main results.
