Abstract

By using the fixed point theory for completely continuous operator, this paper investigates the existence of positive solutions for a class of fourth-order impulsive boundary value problems with integral boundary conditions and one-dimensional p-Laplacian. Moreover, we offer some interesting discussion of the associated boundary value problems. Upper and lower bounds for these positive solutions also are given, so our work is new.
