Multiple positive solutions of a boundary value problem for ordinary differential equations.
The fourth order periodic boundary value problem , 0 < t < 2π, with , i = 0,1,2,3, is studied by using the fixed point index of mappings in cones, where F is a nonnegative continuous function and 0 < m < 1. Under suitable conditions on F, it is proved that the problem has at least two positive solutions if m ∈ (0,M), where M is the smallest positive root of the equation tan mπ = -tanh mπ, which takes the value 0.7528094 with an error of .
In this paper, using a fixed point theorem on a convex cone, we consider the existence of positive solutions to the multipoint one-dimensional -Laplacian boundary value problem with impulsive effects, and obtain multiplicity results for positive solutions.
We study the existence of positive solutions to the singular boundary value problem for a second-order FDE ⎧ u'' + q(t) f(t,u(w(t))) = 0, for almost all 0 < t < 1, ⎨ u(t) = ξ(t), a ≤ t ≤ 0, ⎩ u(t) = η(t), 1 ≤ t ≤ b, where q(t) may be singular at t = 0 and t = 1, f(t,u) may be superlinear at u = ∞ and singular at u = 0.
