Abstract

We consider the problem y"=a(x,y)(y-b), (0$$y(0)=0,\;y^{\prime}(1)=g(y({\xi}),\;y^{\prime}({\xi})),\;{\xi}$$ fixed in (0,1). This is a model of steady-state heat conduction in a rod when the heat flux at the end x=1 is determined by observation of the temperature and heat flux at some interior point ${\xi}$. We establish conditions sufficient for existence, uniqueness, and positivity of solutions.
