New criteria for the existence of non-trivial fixed points in cones
Abstract
We give new criteria for the existence of nontrivial fixed points on cones assuming some monotonicity of the operator on a suitable conical shell. Moreover, we give an application to the existence of multiple solutions for a nonlocal boundary value problem that models the displacement of a beam subject to some feedback controllers.

Strictly positive solutions for one-dimensional nonlinear problems involving the p-Laplacian
Let be a bounded open interval, and let and

positive solutions for elliptic problems of the form in , on . We
mention that our results are new even in the case .Comment: To appear in Bulletin of the Australian Mathematical Societ
