Abstract
In this paper we consider the multipoint boundary value problem for a one-dimensional pp-Laplacian: (ϕp(u′))′+f(t,u)=0,t∈(0,1) subject to the boundary value condition: u′(0)=∑i=1n−2αiu′(ξi),u(1)=∑i=1n−2βiu(ξi), where ϕp(s)=|s|p−2s,p>1,ξi∈(0,1)ϕp(s)=|s|p−2s,p>1,ξi∈(0,1) with 0<ξ1<ξ2<⋯<ξn−2<10<ξ1<ξ2<⋯<ξn−2<1, and αi,βiαi,βi satisfy αi,βi∈[0,∞)αi,βi∈[0,∞), 0<∑i=1n−2αi<1, and ∑i=1n−2βi<1. Using a fixed point theorem for operators on a cone, we provide sufficient conditions for the existence of multiple positive solutions to the above boundary value problem.
