Abstract: We investigate a class of singular -point -Laplacian boundary value problem on time scales with the sign changing nonlinearity. By using the well-known Schauder fixed point theorem and upper and lower solutions method, some new existence criteria for positive solutions of the boundary value problem are presented. These results are new even for the corresponding differential and difference equations , as well as general time scales setting. As an application, an example is given to illustrate the results.

Some new results are obtained for the existence of at least single, twin or triple positive solutions of the above problem by using Krasnosel''skii''s fixed point theorem, new fixed point theorem due to Avery and Henderson and Leggett–Williams fixed point theorem.
