Abstract
In this paper, we study a class of nth-order boundary value problems for impulsive differential equations with integral boundary conditions and p-Laplacian. The Leray–Schauder fixed point theorem is used to investigate the existence of at least one positive solution. We also consider the existence of at least three positive solutions by using a fixed-point theorem in a cone due to Avery-Peterson. As an application, we give an example to demonstrate our results.
