### Abstract

Positive solutions to the boundary value problem, $$\left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}l} {{{y}\ifmmode{''}\else''\fi = - f{\left( {x,y{\left( {w{\left( x \right)}} \right)}} \right)},} \hfill} & {{0 < x < 1,} \hfill} \\ {{\alpha y{\left( x \right)} - \beta {y}\ifmmode{'}\else'\fi{\left( x \right)} = \xi {\left( x \right)},} \hfill} & {{a \leqslant x \leqslant 0,} \hfill} \\ {{\gamma y{\left( x \right)} + \delta {y}\ifmmode{'}\else'\fi{\left( x \right)} = \eta {\left( x \right)},} \hfill} & {{1 \leqslant x \leqslant b,} \hfill} \\ \end{array} } \right.$$ are obtained by applying the Schauder fixed point theorem, where w(x) is a continuous function defined on [0, 1] and f(x, y) is a function defined on (0, 1)×(0, ∞), which satisfies certain restrictions and may have singularity at y=0. The result corrects and improves an existence theorem due to Erbe and Kong[1].
