Sign-changing solution for a third-order boundary-value problem in ordered Banach space with lattice structure

Abstract

In this paper, the sign-changing solution of a third-order two-point boundary-value problem is considered. By calculating the eigenvalues and the algebraic multiplicity of the linear problem and using a new fixed point theorem in an ordered Banach space with lattice structure, we give some conditions to guarantee the existence for a sign-changing solution.
