LetTbe a time scale anda,b∈T,a<ρ2(b). We study the nonlinear fourth-order eigenvalue problem onT,uΔ4(t)=λh(t)f(u(t),uΔ2(t)),t∈[a,ρ2(b)]T,u(a)=uΔ(σ(b))=uΔ2(a)=uΔ3(ρ(b))=0and obtain the existence and nonexistence of positive solutions when0<λ≤λ*andλ>λ*, respectively, for someλ*. The main tools to prove the existence results are the Schauder fixed point theorem and the upper and lower solution method.

AbstractPositive solutions are obtained for the boundary value problemHere f (t, u) ≥ –M, (M is a positive constant) for (t, u) ∈ [0, 1]×(0, ∞). We will show the existence of two positive solutions by using degree theory together with the upper–lower solution method.

This paper is concerned with the existence and nonexistence of positive solutions for a nonlinear higher-order three-point boundary value problem. The existence results are obtained by applying a fixed point theorem of cone expansion and compression of functional type due to Avery, Henderson, and O’Regan.

We consider a fourth-order four-point boundary value problem for dynamic equations on time scales. By the upper and lower solution method, some results on the existence of solutions of the fourth-order four-point boundary value problem on time scales are obtained. An example is also included to illustrate our results.

By using the well-known Schauder fixed point theorem and upper and lower solution method, we present some existence criteria for positive solution of an -point singular -Laplacian dynamic equation on time scales with the sign changing nonlinearity. These results are new even for the corresponding differential () and difference equations (), as well as in general time scales setting. As an application, an example is given to illustrate the results.
