Abstract
In this paper, we consider the following mixed fractional resonant boundary value problem with p(t)-Laplacian operator
where \(^{C} D^{\beta }_{0^{+}}\) is Caputo fractional derivative, \(D^{\alpha }_{0^{+}}\) is Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative, \(\varphi _{p(t)}\) is p(t)-Laplacian operator, \(p(t)>1\), \(p(t)\in C^{1}[0, T]\) with \(p(0)=p(T)\). Under the appropriate conditions of the nonlinear term, the existence of solutions for the above mixed fractional resonant boundary value problem is obtained by using the continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory, which enrich the existing literatures. In addition, an example is included to demonstrate the main result.
