The paper deals with a class of discrete fractional boundary value problems. We construct the corresponding Green's function, analyse it in detail and establish several of its key properties. Then, by using the fixed point index theory, the existence of multiple positive solutions is obtained, and the uniqueness of the solution is proved by a new theorem on an ordered metric space established by M. Jleli, et al. (2012).

In this work we establish existence results for solutions to multipoint boundary value problems for second order difference equations with fully nonlinear boundary conditions involving two, three and four points. Our results are also applied to systems.

This paper is concerned with the delay partial difference equation (1) $A_{m+1,n}+A_{m,n+1}-A_{m,n}+{\Sigma }_{i=1}^u{p}_i{A}_{m-k_i,n-l_i}=0$ where $p_i$ are real numbers, $k_i$ and $l_i$ are nonnegative integers, u is a positive integer. Sufficient and necessary conditions for all solutions of (1) to be oscillatory are obtained.

In this paper we study two classes of delay partial difference equations with constant coefficients. Explicit necessary and sufficient conditions for the oscillation of the solutions of these equations are obtained.

In this research we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the stability of the zero solution of scalar Volterra integro-dynamic equation on general time scales. Our approach is based on the construction of suitable Lyapunov functionals. We will compare our findings with known results and provides application to quantum calculus.

In this paper the authors give necessary and sufficient conditions for the oscillation of solutions of nonlinear delay difference equations of Emden– Fowler type in the form ${\Delta }^2{y}_{n-1}+q_n{y}_{\sigma \left(n\right)}^{\gamma }=g_n$, where $\gamma$ is a quotient of odd positive integers, in the superlinear case $(\gamma >1)$ and in the sublinear case $(\gamma <1)$.

In the paper, conditions are obtained, in terms of coefficient functions, which are necessary as well as sufficient for non-oscillation/oscillation of all solutions of self-adjoint linear homogeneous equations of the form $$\Delta \left(p_{n-1}\Delta y_{n-1}\right)+q{y}_n=0,n\ge 1,$$ where $q$ is a constant. Sufficient conditions, in terms of coefficient functions, are obtained for non-oscillation of all solutions of nonlinear non-homogeneous equations of the type $$\Delta \left(p_{n-1}\Delta y_{n-1}\right)+q_{n}g\left(y_n\right)=f_{n-1},n\ge 1,$$ where, unlike earlier works, $f_n\ge 0$ or $\le 0$ (but $\neg \equiv 0)$ for large $n$. Further, these results are used to obtain...
