Abstract
Existence of positive solutions of the two-point boundary value problem y” = λ2f(x,y),y(0) = a > 0, y(1) = b ≥ 0 is studied, where λ2 > 0 and [formula omitted] but [formula omitted]. It is shown that positive solutions exist provided λ2 is sufficiently small but that no positive solutions exist for λ2 large.
