The author deals with the \(p\)-Laplacian dynamic equation on a time scale \[ [\phi_p(u^\Delta(t))]^\nabla+a(t)f(u(t))=0 \] subject to the boundary condition \(u(0)-B_0(u^\Delta(\eta))=0\), \(u^\Delta(T)=0\) or \(u(T)+B_1(u^\Delta(\eta))=0\), \(u^\Delta(0)=0\), where \(\phi_p\) is the \(p\)-Laplacian operator given by \(\phi_p(u)=| u| ^{p-2}u\) for \(p>1\). Moreover, \(f:(0,\infty)\to(0,\infty)\) is supposed to be continuous, \(a:{\mathbb T}\to[0,\infty)\) does not vanish on a closed interval and \(B_0,B_1\) satisfy appropriate linear growth bounds. Using a fixed point theorem on cones due to \textit{R. I. Avery} and \textit{A. C. Peterson} [Comput.\ Math.\ Appl.\ 42, No.\ 3--5, 313--322 (2001; Zbl 1005.47051)], the authors derive two sufficient conditions for the existence of at least three positive solutions of the above three-point boundary value problem. Two examples illustrate their results.
