This paper investigates the existence of positive solutions of nonresonant singular boundary value problem of second order differential equations. A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of C[0, 1] positive solutions as well as C1[0, 1] positive solutions is given by means of the method of lower and upper solutions with the fixed point theorems.

AbstractThe singular boundary-value problem $(g(x'))'=\mu f(t,x,x')$, $x'(0)=0$, $x(T)=b>0$ is considered. Here $\mu$ is the parameter and $f(t,x,y)$, which satisfies local Carathéodory conditions on $[0,T]\times(\mathbb{R}\setminus\{b\})\times(\mathbb{R}\setminus\{0\})$, may be singular at the values $x=b$ and $y=0$ of the phase variables $x$ and $y$, respectively. Conditions guaranteeing the existence of a positive solution to the above problem for suitable positive values of $\mu$ are given. The proofs are based on regularization and sequential techniques and use the topological transversality theorem.AMS 2000 Mathematics subject classification: Primary 34B16; 34B18

AbstractThe authors study the singular boundary value problem with fractional q-derivatives $\begin{gathered} - (D_q^\nu u)(t) = f(t,u),t \in (0,1), \hfill \\ (D_q^i u)(0) = 0,i = 0,...,n - 2,(D_q u)(1) = \sum\limits_{j = 1}^m {a_j (D_q u)(t_j ) + \lambda ,} \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $, where q ∈ (0, 1), m ≥ 1 and n ≥ 2 are integers, n − 1 < ν ≤ n, λ ≥ 0 is a parameter, f: (0, 1] × (0,∞) → [0,∞) is continuous, a i ≥ 0 and t i ∈ (0, 1) for i = 1, …,m, and D qν is the q-derivative of Riemann-Liouville type of order ν. Sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence of positive solutions. Their analysis is mainly based on a nonlinear alternative of Leray-Schauder.
