Abstract
We study a nonlinear differential equations in the Banach space of real functions and continuous on a
bounded and closed interval. With the help of a suitable theorems (fixed point) and some boundary condi-
tions, the 5th order nonlinear differential equations has at least one positive solution.
Keywords: Fixed-Point Theorem, Banach Space, Nonlinear 5th Order Differential Equations
1. Introduction
In this paper, we are going to study the solvability
nonlinear 5th order differential equations. We will look
for solutions of that equation in the Banach space. The
main tool used in our investigations to existence of
positive solutions for the nonlinear 5th order boundary
value problems. Let us mention that the theory of non-
linear differential equations has many useful applica-
tions in describing numerous events and problems of
the real world. For example, nonlinear differential eq-
uations are often applicable in engineering, mathema-
tical physics, economics and biology [1,2]. The nonli-
near 5th order differential equations studied in this pa-
per is an existence and nonexistence of positive solu-
tions by using object of mathematical investigations
[3-5]. The results presented in this paper seem to be
new and original. They generalize several results ob-
tained up to now in the study of nonlinear differential
equations of several types.

Theorem 2.1 [6,7]
Assume that U is a relatively open subset of convex
set K in Banach space E. Let :NU Kbe a compact
map w ith oU. Then either

2) There uUand (0,1)

Definition 2.1 An operator is called completely con-
tinuous if it is continuous and maps bounded sets into
pre-compacts.

empty closed convex set

which implies that TRu, that is a contraction.
Then th e nonlinear alternative theorem implies that T has
a fixed point u, that is , problem(3.1),(3.2) and (3.3)
has a solution u.
Finally, we give an example to illustrate the results
obtained in this paper.
Example: By using the Equation (3.1) with the condi-
tions (3.2) and (3.3) to solve t he bo u nda ry v alue pr oblem
