In this paper, we consider the nabla fractional order boundary value problemand derive sufficient conditions for the existence of positive solutions by an application of Krasnoselskii's fixed point theorem on a Banach space. Later, we derive sufficient conditions for the existence of a unique solution by applying Rus's contraction mapping theorem in a metric space, where two metrics are employed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
