Abstract

We consider the following impulsive boundary value problem, x″(t)=f(t,x,x′), t∈J\{t1,t2,…,tk}, Δx(ti)=Ii(x(ti),x′(ti)), Δx′(ti)=Ji(x(ti),x′(ti)), i=1,2,…,k, x(0)=(0), x′(1)=∑j=1m−2αjx′(ηj). By using the coincidence degree theory, a general theorem concerning the problem is given. Moreover, we get a concrete existence result which can be applied more conveniently than recent results. Our results extend some work concerning the usual m-point boundary value problem at resonance without impulses.
