Introduction It i known that the theory of impulive differential equation have become more important in recent year in ome mathematical model of real procee and phenomena. For the introduction of the baic theory of impulive equation, ee [, 2] and the reference therein. The theory of dynamic equation on time cale ha been developing rapidly and have received much attention in recent year. The tudy unifie exiting reult from the theory of differential and finite difference equation and provide powerful new tool for exploring connection between the traditionally eparated field. We refer to the book by Bohner and Peteron [3, 4]. Recently, the boundary value problem for impulive differential equation have been tudied extenively. To identify a few, we refer to the reader to ee [7, 8, 9,, 8, 2]. However, the correponding theory of uch equation i till in the beginning tage of it development, epecially the impulive dynamic equation on time cale, ee [2, 5, 9]. There i not o much work on impulive boundary value problem 475

To our knowledge, no paper ha conidered the econd-order BVP with integral boundary condition for p-laplacian impulive dynamic equation on time cale. Thi paper fill thi gap in the literature. In thi paper, we are concerned with the exitence of many poitive olution of the following boundary value problem for p-laplacian impulive dynamic equation on time cale (φ p (u (t = f(t, u(t, t [, ] T, t t k, k =, 2,..., m (. u(t k u(t k = I k(u(t k, k =, 2,..., m (.2 αu( u ( = u(, u ( = (.3 where T i a time cale,, T, [, ] T = [, ] T, t k (, T, k =, 2,..., m with < t < t 2 <... < t m <, α >, >, φ p ( i a p-laplacian function, i.e., φ p ( = p 2 for p >, (φ p ( = φ q ( where p q =.

By uing Leggett- William fixed point theorem [4], we alo etablih the exitence of triple poitive olution for BVP (.-(.3. The organization of thi paper i a follow. In ection 2, we provide ome neceary background. In ection 3, the main reult for problem (.-(.3 are given. In ection 4, we give an example. 2.

48 ILKAY YASLAN KARACA, OZLEM BATIT OZEN AND FATMA TOKMAK From (3.4 and Lemma 3., it i eay to obtain the following reult. Lemma 3.3. Aume that (H and (H2 hold. Then T : K K i completely continuou. and We define Ω ρ = u K : min t [,] T u(t < γρ = u K : γ u min t [,] T u(t < γρ K ρ = u K : u < ρ. Lemma 3.4.

Now for convenience we introduce the following notation. Let fa b f(t, u = min min : u [a, b], t [,] T φ p (a fγρ ρ f(t, u = min min : u [γρ, ρ], t [,] T φ p (ρ f ρ = max f(t, u max : u [, ρ], t [,] T φ p (ρ I ρ (k = max I k(u : u [, ρ], l ( mα =, L =.

P-LAPLACIAN IMPULSIVE DYNAMIC EQUATIONS ON TIME SCALES 48 Proof. We only conider the condition (H3. If (H4 hold, then the proof i imilar to that of the cae when (H3 hold. By Lemma 3.3, we know that the operator T : K K i completely continuou. Firt, we how that i K (T, K ρ =. In fact, by (3.4, f ρ < φ p (l and I ρ (k < lρ, we have for u K ρ, (T u(t = = = < = t ( f(, u( φ q ( ( σ(φ q f(r, u(r r I k (u(t k ( t k I k (u(t k t k <t ( f(, u( φ q ( φ q f(r, u(r r I k (u(t k α α ( ( ( ( α lρ = lρ [ (m α ( f(, u( φ q f(r, u(r r f(r, u(r r I k (u(t k f(r, u(r r f(r, u(r r α I k (u(t k f(, u( α I k (u(t k φ p (lρ α lρ α lρ m ] = ρ, i.e., T u < u for u K ρ. By (i of Theorem 2.4, we obtain that i K (T, K ρ =. Secondly, we how that i K (T, Ω ρ2 =. Let e(t. Then e K. We claim that u T u λe, u Ω ρ2, λ >. Suppoe that there exit u Ω ρ2 and λ > uch that u = T u λ e. (3.5
482 ILKAY YASLAN KARACA, OZLEM BATIT OZEN AND FATMA TOKMAK Then, Lemma 3.2, Lemma 3.4 (d and (3.5 imply that for t [, ] T u = T u λ e γ T u λ γ f(, u( λ > γ φ p (Lρ 2 λ = γ Lρ 2 λ = γρ 2 λ, i.e., γρ 2 > γρ 2 λ, which i a contradiction. Hence by (ii of Theorem 2.4, it follow that i K (T, Ω ρ2 =. Finally, imilar to the proof of i K (T, K ρ =, we can prove that i K (T, K ρ3 =. Since ρ < γρ 2 and Lemma 3.4 (b, we have K ρ K γρ2 Ω ρ2. Similarly with ρ 2 < ρ 3 and Lemma 3.4 (b, we have Ω ρ2 K ρ2 K ρ3. Therefore (iii of Theorem 2.4 implie that BVP (.-(.3 ha at leat two poitive olution u, u 2 with u Ω ρ2 \ K ρ, u 2 K ρ3 \ Ω ρ2. Theorem 3.5 can be generalized to obtain many olution. Theorem 3.6. Suppoe (H and (H2 hold. Then we have the following aertion. (H5 If there exit ρ i 2m i= (, with ρ < γρ 2 < ρ 2 < ρ 3 < γρ 4 <... < γρ 2m < ρ 2m < ρ 2m uch that f ρ2m < φ p (l, I ρ2m < lρ 2m, (m =, 2,..., m, m, fγρ ρ2m > φ p (L, (m =, 2,..., m, then problem (.-(.3 ha at leat 2m olution in K.

Theorem 3.7. Suppoe (H and (H2 hold. Then we have the following aertion. (H7 If there exit ρ i 2m i= (, with ρ < ρ 2 < γρ 3 < ρ 3 <... < ρ 2m < γρ 2m < ρ 2m uch that f ρ2m γρ 2m > φ p (L, (m =, 2,..., m, m, f ρ2m < φ p (l, I ρ2m < lρ 2m, (m =, 2,..., m, then problem (.-(.3 ha at leat 2m olution in K.

Let < d < a < γb < b c and aume that condition (H, (H2 hold, and the following condition hold: (H9 There exit a contant c k uch that I k (y c k for k =, 2,..., m; (H fa b > φ p (L; (H f c φ p (R, f d < φ p (R where < R < α, d > α α R c k ( α α Then the BVP (.-(.3 ha at leat three nonnegative olution u, u 2, and u 3 in K c uch that. u < d, a < (u 2 and u 3 > d with (u 3 < a. Proof. By (H and (H2, T : K K i completely continuou. For u K, let θ(u = min u(t, t [,] T then it i eay to check that θ i a nonnegative continuou concave functional on K with θ(u u for u K. Let u K c, by (H9 and (H we have T u = max T u(t t [,] T = max t [,] T ( f(, u( t ( ( σ(φ q f(r, u(r r I k (u(t k I k (u(t k ( t k t k <t ( φ p (Rc φ q ( φ q φ p (Rc r ( α = Rc α c k < c, that i T u < c. φ q ( φ p (Rc r c k f(r, u(r r c k

Next, we how that u K(θ, a, b : θ(u > a = and θ(t u > a for u K(θ, a, b. In fact, take u(t = ab 2 > a, o u u K(θ, a, b : θ(u > a. Alo, u K(θ, a, b and (H condition imply that θ(t u = min (T u(t = T u( t [,] T = f(, u( > > ( σ(φ q ( I k (u(t k ( t k f(, u( c k f(r, u(r r ( a( φ p = a. Finally, we how that θ(t u > a for u K(θ, a, c with T u > b. From Lemma 3.2, we have θ(t u = min (T u(t γ T u > γb > a. t [,] T
P-LAPLACIAN IMPULSIVE DYNAMIC EQUATIONS ON TIME SCALES 485 So θ(t u > a i atified. Therefore all of the condition of Theorem 2.5 hold. Hence BVP (.-(.3 ha at leat three poitive olution u, u 2 and u 3 uch that u < d, a < θ(u 2 and u 3 > d with θ(u 3 < a. 4. Example Example 4..
