An exact multiplicity result of positive solutions for the boundary value problems u Xa t f u 0 t e 0 1 u 0 0 u 1 0 is achieved where A is a positive parameter. Here the function f 0 to 0 to is C2 and satisfies f 0 f s 0 f u 0 for u e 0 s u s to for some s e 0 to . Moreover f is asymptotically linear and f can change sign only once. The weight function a 0 1 0 to is C2 and satisfies a t 0 3 a t 2 2a t a t for t e 0 1 . Using bifurcation techniques we obtain the exact number of positive solutions of the problem under consideration for A lying in various intervals in R. Moreover we indicate how to extend the result to the general case. 1. Introduction Consider the problem u Xa t f u 0 t e 0 1 u 0 0 u 1 0 where A 0 is a parameter and a e C2 0 1 is a weight function. The existence and multiplicity of positive solutions for ordinary differential equations have been studied extensively in many literatures see for example 1-3 and references therein. Several different approaches such as the Leray-Schauder theory the fixed-point theory the lower and upper solutions theory and the shooting method etc .
