Abstract

In this paper, we study a boundary value problem of nonlinear fractional dif-ferential equations of order q (1 < q  2) with non-separated integral boundary conditions. Some new existence and uniqueness results are obtained by using some standard fixed point theorems and Leray-Schauder degree theory. Some illustrative examples are also presented. We extend previous results even in the integer case q = 2.
