In this paper, we study the existence of at least three solutions for a three-point boundary value problem. By constructing and showing an appropriate separable and reflexive Banach space, a new multiplicity result of the three-point boundary value problem is established. Our main tool is based upon variational method and three-critical-point theorem.

We study a multiplicity result for the perturbedp-Laplacian equation−Δpu−λg(x)|u|p−2u=f(x,u)+h(x) in ℝN, where1<p<Nandλis nearλ 1, the principal eigenvalue of the weighted eigenvalue problem−Δpu=λg(x)|u|p−2uinℝN. Depending on which sideλis fromλ 1, we prove the existence of one or three solutions. This kind of result was firstly obtained by Mawhin and Schmitt (1990) for a semilinear two-point boundary value problem.

A class of nonlinear elliptic problems driven byp(x)-Laplacian-like with a nonsmooth locally Lipschitz potential was considered. Applying the version of a nonsmooth three-critical-point theorem, existence of three solutions of the problem is proved.

Throughout this paper, via the Schauder fixed-point theorem, a generalization of Krasnoselskii’s fixed-point theorem in a cone, as well as some inequalities relevant to Green’s function, we study the existence of positive solutions of a nonlinear, fractional three-point boundary-value problem with a term of the first order derivative ( a C D α x ) ( t ) = f ( t , x ( t ) , x ′ ( t ) ) , a < t < b , 1 < α < 2 , x ( a ) = 0 , x ( b ) = μ x ( η ) , a < η < b , μ > λ , where λ = b − a η − a and a C D α denotes the Caputo’s fractional derivative, and f : [ a , b ] × R × R → R is a continuous function satisfying the certain conditions.

In this paper we prove the existence of two intervals of positive real parameters λ for a Dirichlet boundary value problem involving the p-Laplacian which admit three weak solutions, whose norms are uniformly bounded with respect to λ belonging to one of the two intervals. Our main tool is a three critical points theorem due to G. Bonanno [A critical points theorem and nonlinear differential problems, J. Global Optim., 28:249–258, 2004].

This paper investigates the solvability of a class of higher-order fractional two-point boundary value problem (BVP), and presents several new results. First, Green’s function of the considered BVP is obtained by using the property of Caputo derivative. Second, based on Schaefer’s fixed point theorem, the solvability of the considered BVP is studied, and a sufficient condition is presented for the existence of at least one solution. Finally, an illustrative example is given to support the obtained new results.
