Using bifurcation techniques and Sturm comparison theorem, we establish exact multiplicity results of sign-changing or constant sign solutions for the boundary value problemsu″+a(t)f(u)=0,t∈(0,1),u(0)=0, andu(1)=0, wheref∈C(ℝ,ℝ)satisfiesf(0)=0and the limitsf∞=lim|s|→∞(f(s)/s),f0=lim|s|→0(f(s)/s)∈{0,∞}. Weight functiona(t)∈C1[0,1]satisfiesa(t)>0on[0,1].

Using techniques of bifurcation theory we present two exact multiplicity results for boundary value problems of the typeThe first result concerns the case when the nonlinearity is independent of x and behaves like a cubic in u. The second one deals with a class of nonlinearities with explicit x dependence.
