In this article, we study the existence of solutions to boundary value problem for nonlinear tempered fractional differential equation with p-Laplacian operator and delay. By introducing an appropriate operator, we establish uniqueness of the solution for this problem via the Banach contraction mapping principle and obtain several existence results by employing the Schaefer's fixed-point theorem, the Leray–Schauder principle, and the Leray–Schauder nonlinear alternative theorem. Finally, a concrete problem is provided to demonstrate the applicability of the obtained theoretical results.
