We establish the existence of positive solutions of the Sturm–Liouville problem
where
We assume g and to be non-negative, continuous functions, a(s) is a positive continuous function, c≥0, p>1, and the function h is sub-quadratic with respect to u′. We combine a priori estimates with a fixed-point result of Krasnosel'skii to obtain the existence of a positive solution.
