Abstract

IntroductionNeumann boundary value problems have been studied by many authors. We are mainly interested in the semi-positone case. This paper deals with the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions of a superlinear semi-positone singular Neumann boundary value problem.PreliminariesThe proof of our main results relies on a nonlinear alternative of Leray-Schauder type, the method of upper and lower solutions and on a well-known fixed point theorem in cones.Main resultsWe obtained the existence of at least two different positive solutions.

Summary

Introduction

It is well known that the existence of positive solutions of boundary value problems has been studied by many authors in [ – ] and references therein. They mainly considered the case of p(x) ≡ and q(x) ≡. In [ ], the authors studied positive solutions of Neumann boundary problems of second order impulsive differential equations in the positone case, based on a nonlinear alternative principle of Leray-Schauder type and a well-known fixed point theorem in cones. This paper attempts to study the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions of second order superlinear singular Neumann boundary value problems in the semi-positone case. In Section , we state and prove the main results of this paper
