Abstract

This paper investigates the following singular systems of nonlinear second-order three-point boundary value problems

\(\left\{ \begin{array} {ll} -u''=f(t,v), & {t\in(0,1)} \\ -v''=g(t,u), & {t\in(0,1)} \\ u'(0)=v'(0)=0, & u(1)={\alpha u'(\eta)},v(1)=\alpha v'(\eta) \\ \end{array} \right.\)

Where η ∈ (0,1), α < 0, Under some weaker conditions, the existence of positive solutions is obtained by applying the fixed point theorem of cone expansion and compression.
