We consider the existence, multiplicity of positive solutions for the integral boundary value problem with φ-Laplacian φut ft, ut, ut 0, t ∈ 0,1, u0 01urgrdr,
u1 01urhrdr, whereφis an odd, increasing homeomorphism fromRontoR. We show that it has at least one, two, or three positive solutions under some assumptions by applying fixed point theorems. The interesting point is that the nonlinear termfis involved with the first-order derivative explicitly.

We are interested in the existence of positive solutions for the integral boundary value problem

whereφ, f, g, andhsatisfy the following conditions.
H1φ is an odd, increasing homeomorphism from R onto R, and there exist two increasing homeomorphismsψ1andψ2of0,∞onto0,∞such that
ψ1uφv≤φuv≤ψ2uφv ∀u, v >0. 1.2
H2f : 0,1 × 0,∞× −∞,∞ → 0,∞ is continuous. g, h ∈ L10,1 are nonnegative, and 0<01gtdt <1, 0<01htdt <1.
The assumptionH1on the functionφwas first introduced by Wang1,2, it covers two important cases:φu uandφu |u|p−2u, p >1. The existence of positive solutions for two above cases received wide attentionsee3–10. For example, Ji and Ge4studied the multiplicity of positive solutions for the multipoint boundary value problem

where φps |s|p−2s, p > 1. They provided sufficient conditions for the existence of at least three positive solutions by using Avery-Peterson fixed point theorem. In5, Feng et al. researched the boundary value problem

where the nonlinear termfdoes not depend on the first-order derivative andφps |s|p−2s,
p >1. They obtained at least one or two positive solutions under some assumptions imposed on the nonlinearity offby applying Krasnoselskii fixed point theorem.
As for integral boundary value problem, whenφu uis linear, the existence of positive solutions has been obtainedsee8–10. In8, the author investigated the positive solutions for the integral boundary value problem

The main tools are the priori estimate method and the Leray-Schauder fixed point theorem. However, there are few papers dealing with the existence of positive solutions when φ
satisfiesH1andf depends on bothuandu. This paper fills this gap in the literature. The aim of this paper is to establish some simple criteria for the existence of positive solutions of BVP1.1. To get rid of the difficulty offdepending onu, we will define a special norm in Banach spaceinSection 2.
2. Preliminaries
The basic space used in this paper is a real Banach spaceC10,1with norm ·

K
u∈C10,1|ut≥0, u1

uthtdt, uis concave on0,1
. 2.1
It is obvious thatKis a cone inC10,1.
Lemma 2.1see7. Letu∈K, η∈0,1/2, thenut≥ηmax0≤t≤1|ut|,t∈η,1−η.
Lemma 2.2. Let u ∈ K, then there exists a constant M > 0 such that max0≤t≤1|ut| ≤
Mmax0≤t≤1|ut|.
Proof. The mean value theorem guarantees that there existsτ ∈0,1, such that
u1 uτ

htdt. 2.2
Moreover, the mean value theorem of differential guarantees that there existsσ∈τ,1, such
that

So we have

2.4
DenoteM 2−01htdt/1−01htdt; then the proof is complete.
Lemma 2.3. Assume that (H1), (H2) hold. Ifuis a solution of BVP1.1, there exists a uniqueδ ∈
0,1, such thatuδ 0andut≥0,t∈0,1.
Proof. From the fact that φu −ft, ut, ut < 0, we know that φut is strictly decreasing. It follows thatutis also strictly decreasing. Thus,utis strictly concave on0, 1. Without loss of generality, we assume thatu0 min{u0, u1}. By the concavity of
u, we know thatut ≥ u0,t ∈ 0,1. So we getu0 01utgtdt ≥ u001gtdt. By 0<01gtdt <1, it is obvious thatu0≥0. Hence,ut≥0,t∈0,1.
Lemma 2.4. Assume that (H1), (H2) hold. Supposeuis a solution of BVP1.1; then

Lemma 2.5. T:K → Kis completely continuous.
Proof. Letu∈K; then from the definition ofT, we have

2.13
So Tut is monotone decreasing continuous and Tuδ 0. Hence, Tut is nonnegative and concave on0, 1. By computation, we can getTu1 01Tuthtdt. This shows that TK ⊂ K. The continuity ofT is obvious since φ−1, f is continuous. Next, we prove thatTis compact onC10,1.
Let D be a bounded subset of K and m > 0 is a constant such that 01fτ, uτ, uτdτ < mforu∈D. From the definition ofT, for anyu∈D, we get
|Tut|<

Tut< φ−1m, 0≤t≤1.
2.14
Hence,TD is uniformly bounded and equicontinuous. So we have thatTD is compact on
|φTut1−φTut2|< ε. SoφTDis compact onC0,1; it follows thatTDis compact onC0,1. Therefore,TDis compact onC10,1.
Thus,T:K → Kis completely continuous.
It is easy to prove that each fixed point ofTis a solution for BVP1.1.
Lemma 2.6see1. Assume that (H1) holds. Then foru, v∈0,∞,
ψ2−1uv≤φ−1uφv≤ψ1−1uv. 2.15
To obtain positive solution for BVP1.1, the following definitions and fixed point theorems in a cone are very useful.
Definition 2.7. The mapαis said to be a nonnegative continuous concave functional on a cone of a real Banach spaceEprovided thatα:K → 0,∞is continuous and
αtx 1−ty≥tαx 1−tαy 2.16
for allx, y∈Kand 0≤t≤1. Similarly, we say the mapγis a nonnegative continuous convex functional on a cone of a real Banach spaceEprovided thatγ:K → 0,∞is continuous and
γtx 1−ty≤tγx 1−tγy 2.17
for allx, y∈Kand 0≤t≤1.
Letγ and θbe a nonnegative continuous convex functionals onK,αa nonnegative continuous concave functional onK, andψa nonnegative continuous functional onK. Then for positive real numbera, b, c, andd, we define the following convex sets:
Pγ, du∈K|γu< d,
Pγ, α, b, du∈K|αu≥b, γu≤d,
Pγ, θ, α, b, c, du∈K|αu≥b, θu≤c, γu≤d,

1Tu ≤ u,u∈K∩∂Ω1, andTu ≥ u,u∈K∩∂Ω2; 2Tu ≥ u,u∈K∩∂Ω1, andTu ≤ u,u∈K∩∂Ω2.
ThenT has at least one fixed point inΩ2\Ω1.

Theorem 3.1. Assume that (H1) and (H2) hold. In addition, suppose that one of following conditions is satisfied.
iThere exist two constantsr, Rwith0< r <N/LRsuch that

Proof. iLetΩ1{u∈K| u1< r},Ω2 {u∈K| u1< R}.
Foru∈∂Ω1, we obtainu∈0, randu ∈−r, r, which impliesft, u, u≥φr/N.

This implies that
Tu1≤ u1 foru∈∂Ω2. 3.6
Therefore, byTheorem 2.8, it follows thatT has a fixed point inΩ2\Ω1. That is BVP1.1has at least one positive solution such that 0< r ≤ u1≤R.
iiConsideringf∞< ψ11/2L, there existsρ0>0 such that
ft, u, v≤ψ1
1 2L
φucvc fort∈0,1, ucvc≥2ρ0. 3.7
ChoosingM > ρ0such that
maxft, u, v| ucvc≤2ρ0
≤ψ1
1 2L
then for allρ > M, letΩ3{u∈K| u1< ρ}. For everyu∈∂Ω3, we haveucuc≤2ρ. In the following, we consider two cases.
Case 1ucuc≤2ρ0. In this case,
ft, u, u≤ψ1

ft, u, u≤ψ1

φucuc≤ψ1
1 2L
φ2ρ≤φρ L
. 3.10
Then it is similar to the proof of3.6; we haveTu1≤ u1foru∈∂Ω3.
Next, turning tof0> ψ21/N, there exists 0< ξ < ρsuch that
ft, u, v≥ψ2
1
N
φucvc fort∈0,1, ucvc≤2ξ. 3.11
LetΩ4{u∈K| u1 < ξ}. For everyu∈∂Ω4, we haveucuc≤2ξ. So
ft, u, u≥ψ2

N
φucuc≥ψ2

. 3.12
Then like in the proof of3.3, we haveTu1≥ u1foru∈∂Ω4. Hence, BVP1.1has at least one positive solution such that 0< ξ≤ u1≤ρ.
iiiThe proof is similar to theiandii; here we omit it.
In the following, we present a result for the existence of at least two positive solutions of BVP1.1.
Theorem 3.2. Assume that (H1) and (H2) hold. In addition, suppose that one of following conditions is satisfied.
If0 < ψ11/2L,f∞< ψ11/2L, and there existsm

4. The Existence of Three Positive Solutions
In this section, we impose growth conditions onf which allow us to applyTheorem 2.9of BVP1.1.
Let the nonnegative continuous concave functional α, the nonnegative continuous convex functionalsγ,θ, and nonnegative continuous functionalψbe defined on coneKby
γu max
0≤t≤1u
t, ψu θu max
0≤t≤1|ut|, αu η≤mint≤1−η|ut|. 4.1
By Lemmas2.1and2.2, the functionals defined above satisfy
ηθu≤αu≤ψu θu, u1maxγu, θu≤Mγu, 4.2
for allu∈K. Therefore, the condition2.19ofTheorem 2.9is satisfied.
Theorem 4.1. Assume that (H1) and (H2) hold. Let0< a < b≤dη/11−01htdt/01ht1− tdtand suppose thatfsatisfies the following conditions:
P1ft, u, v≤φdfort, u, v∈0,1×0, Md×−d, d;
P2ft, u, v> φb/ηKfort, u, v∈η,1−η×b,b/η1 1−01htdt/01ht1− tdt×−d, d.
P3ft, u, v< φa/Lfort, u, v∈0,1×0, a×−d, d;
Then BVP1.1has at least three positive solutionsu1, u2, andu3satisfying
max 0≤t≤1u
it≤d fori1,2,3, η≤mint≤1−η|u1t|> b,
max0≤t≤1|u2t|> a with minη≤t≤1−η|u2t|< b, max0≤t≤1|u3t|< a,
4.3
whereLdefined as3.1,Kmin{η1/2ψ2−11/2−sds,1/21−ηψ2−1s−1/2ds}.
Proof. We will show that all the conditions ofTheorem 2.9are satisfied.
If u ∈ Pγ, d, then γu max0≤t≤1|ut| ≤ d. With Lemma 2.2 implying max0≤t≤1|ut| ≤Md, so byP1, we haveft, ut, ut≤φdwhen 0≤t≤1. Thus

To check conditionS1ofTheorem 2.9, we choose

Let
c b η
⎛

⎠. 4.6
Thenu0t ∈Pγ, θ, α, b, c, dandαu0> b, so{u∈ Pγ, θ, α, b, c, d|αu > b}/∅. Hence, foru∈Pγ, θ, α, b, c, d, there isb≤ut≤c,|ut| ≤dwhenη≤t≤1−η. From assumption P2, we have
ft, ut, ut> φ
b ηK
fort∈η,1−η. 4.7
It is similar to the proof of assumptioniofTheorem 3.1; we can easily get that
αTu min
η≤t≤1−η|Tut| ≥ηmax0≤t≤1|Tut|> b foru∈P
γ, θ, α, b, c, d. 4.8
This shows that conditionS1ofTheorem 2.9is satisfied. Secondly, foru∈Pγ, α, b, dwithθTu> c, we have
αTu≥ηθTu≥ηc > b. 4.9
Thus conditionS2ofTheorem 2.9holds.
Finally, asψ0 0< a, there holds 0∈/Rγ, ψ, a, d. Suppose thatu∈Rγ, ψ, a, dwith
ψu a; then by the assumptionP3,
ft, ut, ut< φa L
fort∈0,1. 4.10
So like in the proof of assumptioniofTheorem 3.1, we can get
ψTu max
0≤t≤1|Tut|< a. 4.11
Thus BVP1.1has at least three positive solutionsu1, u2, andu3satisfying
