Existence Of Positive Solutions

This study concerns the existence of positive solutions to classes of boundary value problems of the form−∆u = g(x,u), x ∈ Ω,u(x) = 0, x ∈ ∂Ω,where ∆ denote the Laplacian operator, Ω is a smooth bounded domain in RN (N ≥ 2) with ∂Ω of class C2, and connected, and g(x, 0) < 0 for some x ∈ Ω (semipositone problems). By using the method of sub-super solutions we prove the existence of positive solution to special types of g(x,u).

Abstract In this paper, we consider the existence of multiple positive solutions for the 2𝑛th order 𝑚-point boundary value problem: where (0,1), 0 < ξ 1 < ξ 2 < ⋯ < ξ 𝑚–2 < 1. Using the Leggett–Williams fixed point theorem, we provide sufficient conditions for the existence of at least three positive solutions to the above boundary value problem. The associated Green's function for the above problem is also given.
