Positive solutions for a kind of third-order multipoint boundary value problem under the nonresonant conditions and the resonant conditions are considered. In the nonresonant case, by using the Leggett-Williams fixed point theorem, the existence of at least three positive solutions is obtained. In the resonant case, by using the Leggett-Williams norm-type theorem due to O’Regan and Zima, the existence result of at least one positive solution is established. It is remarkable to point out that it is the first time that the positive solution is considered for the third-order boundary value problem at resonance. Some examples are given to demonstrate the main results of the paper.

We investigate the problem of existence of positive solutions for the nonlinear third-order three-point boundary value problemu‴(t)+λa(t)f(u(t))=0,0<t<1,u(0)=u′(0)=0,u″(1)=∝u″(η), whereλis a positive parameter,∝∈(0,1),η∈(0,1),f:(0,∞)→(0,∞),a:(0,1)→(0,∞)are continuous. Using a specially constructed cone, the fixed point index theorems and Leray-Schauder degree, this work shows the existence and multiplicities of positive solutions for the nonlinear third-order boundary value problem. Some examples are given to demonstrate the main results.
