Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions of a kind of multi-point boundary value problems for nonlinear fractional differential equations with p-Laplacian operator using the Banach contraction mapping principle. Furthermore, some examples are given to illustrate our results.
