摘要
We are concerned with the unit interval right focal boundary value problem -x((4)) (t) = f(x(t)), x(0) = x'(q) = x"(r) = x"' (1) = 0. Under various assumptions on f and the real numbers 0 < q < r < 1 we prove the existence of positive solutions for this boundary value problem by applying a generalization of the Leggett-Williams fixed point theorem, the Five Functionals Fixed-Point Theorem.
