Abstract

The existence of at least two positive solutions is presented for the singular second-order boundary value problems {1p(t)(p(t)x^'(t))^'+@F(t)f(t,x(t),p(t)x^'(t))=0,00p(t)x^'(t)=0,x(1)=0 using the fixed point index, where @!"0^11p(r)dr=+~ and f may be singular at x=0 and px^'=0. The solutions we construct may be unbounded.
