Existence and uniqueness of positive solution for nonlinear singular 2mth-order continuous and discrete lidstone boundary value problems

By fixed point theorem of a mixed monotone operators, we study Lidstone boundary value problems to nonlinear singular 2mth-order differential and difference equations, and provide sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of positive solution to Lidstone boundary value problem for 2mth-order ordinary differential equations and 2mth-order difference equations. The nonlinear term in the differential and difference equation may be singular.
