Positive solutions for second-order singular difference equation with nonlinear boundary conditions. (English) Zbl 1524.39030

Summary: In this paper, we discuss the existence of positive solutions for the second-order singular difference equation boundary value problem \[ \begin{cases} -\Delta^2 u(t-1) = \lambda g(t)f(u), &t\in[1, T]_{\mathbb{Z}},\\ u(0) = 0,\\ \Delta u(T) + c(u(T+1))u(T+1) = 0, \end{cases} \] where \(\lambda > 0\) is a positive parameter, \(f: (0, \infty)\rightarrow\mathbb{R}\) is continuous, and is allowed to be singular at 0. The existence of positive solutions is established via introducing a new complete continuous operator.
