We investigate the problem of existence of positive solutions for the nonlinear third-order three-point boundary value problemu‴(t)+λa(t)f(u(t))=0,0<t<1,u(0)=u′(0)=0,u″(1)=∝u″(η), whereλis a positive parameter,∝∈(0,1),η∈(0,1),f:(0,∞)→(0,∞),a:(0,1)→(0,∞)are continuous. Using a specially constructed cone, the fixed point index theorems and Leray-Schauder degree, this work shows the existence and multiplicities of positive solutions for the nonlinear third-order boundary value problem. Some examples are given to demonstrate the main results.
