By using the cone theory and the Banach contraction mapping principle the existence and uniqueness results are established for singular third-order boundary value problems. The theorems obtained are very general and complement previous known results. 1. Introduction Third-order differential equations arise in a variety of different areas of applied mathematics and physics such as the deflection of a curved beam having a constant or varying cross section three-layer beam electromagnetic waves or gravity-driven flows 1 . Recently third-order boundary value problems have been studied extensively in the literature see . 213 and their references . In this paper we consider the following third-order boundary value problem u f f t u t 0 t6 0 1 u 0 u 0 0 u 1 au fi where f t x 6 C 0 1 X -TO to -to to 0 n 1. Three-point boundary value problems BVPs for short have been also widely studied because of both practical and theoretical aspects. There have been many papers investigating the solutions of three-point BVPs see 2-5 10 12 and references therein. Recently the existence of solutions of third-order three-point BVP has been studied in 2 3 . Guo et al. 2 show the existence of positive solutions for BVP when 1 a 1 n and 2 Boundary Value .
