Abstract

The upper and lower solution method is used to discuss the existence of solutions of three-point boundary value problems for the third order nonlinear differential equation y″′ =f(x, y, y′, y″) satisfying the following linear boundary conditions y(j)(a)=α, y(b)=β and y(k)(c)=y, where j, kε{0, 1, 2}, (j, k)≠{2, 2). As a generalization of the results given by Zhao Weili et al. Corresponding theorems for the following nonlinear boundary conditions {g(y(a), y′(a), y″(a))=0 h(y(b),y′(b), y″(b))=0 k(y(c),y′(c), y″(c))=0 are also given.
