Multiple Positive Solutions to Multipoint Boundary Value Problem for a System of Second-Order Nonlinear Semipositone Differential Equations on Time Scales
We study a system of second-order dynamic equations on time scales (p1u1∇)Δ(t)-q1(t)u1(t)+λf1(t,u1(t),u2(t))=0,t∈(t1,tn),(p2u2∇)Δ(t)-q2(t)u2(t)+λf2(t,u1(t), u2(t))=0, satisfying four kinds of different multipoint boundary value conditions, fi is continuous and semipositone. We derive an interval of...

| Summary: | We study a system of second-order dynamic equations on time scales (p1u1∇)Δ(t)-q1(t)u1(t)+λf1(t,u1(t),u2(t))=0,t∈(t1,tn),(p2u2∇)Δ(t)-q2(t)u2(t)+λf2(t,u1(t), u2(t))=0, satisfying four kinds of different multipoint boundary value conditions, fi is continuous and semipositone. We derive an interval of λ such that any λ lying in this interval, the semipositone coupled boundary value problem has multiple positive solutions. The arguments are based upon fixed-point theorems in a cone. |
