In this discussion, we explore the existence of at least three unique solutions for discrete fractional boundary value problems featuring a p-Laplacian operator, provided suitable hypotheses on nonlinear terms are met. Our approach primarily relies on variational methods and critical points theorems. Additionally, we present an example to demonstrate the implications of our findings.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessThree SolutionsDiscrete EquationFractionalVariational MethodsArticleQ3Q2WOS:001413597800001
