Multiple positive solutions of periodic boundary value problems for second order impulsive differential equations

This paper is devoted to study the existence of multiple positive solutions for the second order periodic boundary value problem with impulse effects. The main results here are the generalization of Jiang [Daqing Jiang, On the existence of positive solutions to second order periodic BVPs, Acta Math. Sci. 18 (1998) 31–35] for ordinary differential equations. Existence is established via the theory of fixed point index in cones.
