Positive Solutions of Eigenvalue Problems for a Class of Fractional Differential Equations with Derivatives

By establishing a maximal principle and constructing upper and lower solutions, the existence of positive solutions for the eigenvalue problem of a class of fractional differential equations is discussed. Some sufficient conditions for the existence of positive solutions are established.
