We are concerned with the following third-order three-point boundary value problem:u′′′t=ft, ut,   t∈0, 1,   u′0=u1=0and u′′η-αu′1=0,whereα∈0, 1andη∈(14+α)/(24-3α),1. Although the corresponding Green’s function is sign-changing, we still obtain the existence of at least two positive and decreasing solutions under some suitable conditions onfby using the two-fixed-point theorem due to Avery and Henderson.

We are concerned with the following third-order three-point boundary value problem:u‴(t)=f(t,u(t)),t∈[0,1],u′(0)=u(1)=0,u″(η)+αu(0)=0, whereα∈[0,2)andη∈[2/3,1). Although corresponding Green's function is sign-changing, we still obtain the existence of monotone positive solution under some suitable conditions onfby applying iterative method. An example is also included to illustrate the main results obtained.

This paper is concerned with the following second-order three-point boundary value problemu″t+β2ut+λqtft,ut=0,t∈0 , 1,u0=0,u(1)=δu(η), whereβ∈(0,π/2),δ>0,η∈(0,1), andλis a positive parameter. First, Green’s function for the associated linear boundary value problem is constructed, and then some useful properties of Green’s function are obtained. Finally, existence, multiplicity, and nonexistence results for positive solutions are derived in terms of different values ofλby means of the fixed point index theory.

We are concerned with the existence of positive solutions for the nonlinear third-order three-point boundary value problemu′′′(t)+λg(t)f(u(t))=0,0<t<1,u(0)=αu(η),u′(0)=u′′(1)=0, where0<η<1,0<α<1,λis a positive parameter,g:(0,1)→[0,∞),  and  f:[0,∞)→[0,∞)is continuous. We construct Green’s function for the associated linear boundary value problem and obtain some useful properties of Green’s function. Finally, by using fixed-point index theorem in cones, we establish the existence results of positive solutions for the boundary value problem an example illustrates the application of the results obtained.

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.
