Cid, J.A.; Franco, D.; Minhós, F.
Positive fixed points and fourth-order equations.
(English)
[J] Bull. Lond. Math. Soc. 41, No. 1, 72-78 (2009). ISSN 0024-6093; ISSN 1469-2120/e

Consider the boundary value problem \aligned u^{(4)} &=\lambda f(t,u,u', u'',u'''),\quad t\in (0,1),\\ u(0) &= u(1)= 0= u''(0)= u''(1).\endaligned\tag{*} The authors first improve a fixed point theorem essentially combining the monotone iterative technique with fixed point theorems of cone expansions or compression type. Then they apply it to prove the existence of at least one positive solution of $(*)$ for some open interval of $\lambda$.
