Existence of solutions to fractional differential equations with three-point boundary conditions at resonance with general conditions

Abstract

This paper presents a new technique to investigate the existence of solutions to fractional three-point boundary value problems at resonance in a Hilbert space. Based on the proposed method, the restricted conditions $A^2\xi^{2\alpha-2}=A\xi^{\alpha-1}$ and $A^2\xi^{2\alpha-2}=I$ on the operator $A$, which have been used in \cite{Zhou2}, are removed. It is shown that the system under consideration admits at least one solution by applying coincidence degree theory. Finally, an illustrative example is presented.
