In this paper, we discuss the existence of positive solutions of the conformable fractional differential equation T α x ( t ) + f ( t , x ( t ) ) = 0 , t ∈ [ 0 , 1 ] , subject to the boundary conditions x ( 0 ) = 0 and x ( 1 ) = λ ∫ 0 1 x ( t ) d t , where the order α belongs to ( 1 , 2 ] , T α x (...
