Multiple positive solutions for multi-point boundary value problems with a p-Laplacian on the half-line

Abstract

This paper deals with the existence of multiple positive solutions for multi-point boundary value problems with p-Laplacian on infinite intervals. By using three fixed point theorems in cones, especially a five functionals fixed point theorem, we obtain the sufficient conditions for the existence of at least one, two and three positive solutions, respectively. Two examples are also given in this paper to illustrate the main results.
