Variational Method to the Fractional Impulsive Equation with Neumann Boundary Conditions

We study the multiplicity of solutions for a class of fractional differential equations influenced by both instantaneous and non-instantaneous impulses, subject to Neumann boundary conditions. A key contribution of this paper is that we have established a new variational structure and successfully applied critical point theory to investigate the impulsive fractional Neumann boundary value problem. By using the critical point theorem, we give some new criteria to guarantee that the impulsive problem has at least three solutions. An example is also given to illustrate the main results.
