摘要
For a given positive integer N, we provide conditions on the nonlinear function f which guarantees that the boundary value problem y " + f(y) = 0, 0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 1, y(0) = 0, y(1) = 0, has N positive solutions. We use a shooting method based on elementary estimates.
