Abstract

In this note we consider the boundary value problem y ' ' = f ( x , y , y ' ) ( x [ 0 , X ] ; X > 0 ) , y ( 0 ) = 0 , y ( X ) = a > 0 ; where f is a real function which may be singular at y = 0 . We prove an existence theorem of positive solutions to the previous problem, under different hypotheses of Theorem 2 of L.E. Bobisud [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 173 (1993), 69–83], that extends and improves Theorem 3.2 of D. O’Regan [J. Differential Equations 84 (1990), 228–251].
