Multiple positive solutions for higher order boundary value problems

From MaRDI portal





In many physical and biological problems only positive solutions are of interest. The author extends the work of \textit{L. H. Erbe}, \textit{S. Hu} and \textit{H. Wang} [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 184, No. 3, 640-648 (1994; Zbl 0805.34021)] to obtain two positive solutions to the boundary value problem \[ u^{(n)}+ f(t,u)= 0,\;0\leq t\leq 1,\;\alpha u^{(n- 2)}(0)- \beta u^{(n-1)}(0)= 0,\;\gamma u^{(n-2)}(1)+ \delta u^{(n-1)}(1)= 0, \] \[ u^{(i)}(0)= 0,\quad 0\leq i\leq n-3, \] when \(f\) is superlinear at one endpoint and sublinear at the other. An example is presented.
