Abstract

We discuss the existence and non-existence of non-negative, non-decreasing solutions of certain perturbed Hammerstein integral equations with derivative dependence. We present some applications to nonlinear, second order boundary value problems subject to fairly general functional boundary conditions. The approach relies on classical fixed point index theory.
