Positive solutions of superlinear semipositone singular Dirichlet boundary value problems

From MaRDI portal





This interesting paper is devoted to the existence of positive solutions for the semipositone Dirichlet boundary value problem \[ u+f(t,u)+q(t)=0, \quad t\in (0,1),\qquad u(0)=u(1)=0, \] where \(f:(0,1)\times[0,\infty)\to [0,\infty)\) is continuous \(q:(0,1)\to (-\infty, \infty)\) is Lebesgue integrable, \(f\) may be singular at \(t=0,1\) and \(q\) can have finitely many singularities. The authors obtain sufficient conditions which imply that the considered BVP has at least one \(C[0,1]\cap C^2(0,1)\) positive solution. The proof is based on the properties of the fixed-point index for positive completely continuous operators in a cone.
