Abstract:
By using fixed-point theorem for operators on a cone,
sufficient conditions for the existence of multiple positive
solutions for a third-order boundary-value problem on the half-line
are established. In the case of the p-Laplace operator our results for
p>1 generalize previous known results. The interesting
point lies in the fact that the nonlinear term is allowed to depend
on the first order derivative u'.
