Abstract

‎In this paper‎, ‎we formulate the sixth-order boundary value problem as Fredholm integral equation by finding Green's function and obtain the sufficient conditions for existence and multiplicity of positive solution for this problem‎. ‎Also nonexistence results are obtained‎. ‎An example is given to illustrate the results of paper‎.
