Existence of positive solutions of third-order boundary value problems with integral boundary conditions in Banach spaces

This paper deals with positive solutions of a third-order differential equation in ordered Banach spaces, ( φ ( − x ″ ( t ) ) ) ′ = f ( t , x ( t ) ) , t ∈ J , subject to the following integral boundary conditions: x ( 0 ) = θ , x ″ ( 0 ) = θ , x ( 1 ) = ∫ 0 1 g ( t ) x ( t ) d t , where θ is the ze...

Description
Summary:This paper deals with positive solutions of a third-order differential equation in ordered Banach spaces, ( φ ( − x ″ ( t ) ) ) ′ = f ( t , x ( t ) ) , t ∈ J , subject to the following integral boundary conditions: x ( 0 ) = θ , x ″ ( 0 ) = θ , x ( 1 ) = ∫ 0 1 g ( t ) x ( t ) d t , where θ is the zero element of E , g ∈ L [ 0 , 1 ] is nonnegative, φ : R → R is an increasing and positive homomorphism, and φ ( 0 ) = θ 1 . The arguments are based upon the fixed-point principle in cone for strict set contraction operators. Meanwhile, as an application, we also give an example to illustrate our results.
