By using the fixed-point index theory in a cone and defining a linear operator, we obtain the existence of at least one positive solution for the third-order boundary value problem with integral boundary conditions
where f : [0, 1] × R+ × R- → R+ is a nonnegative function. The associated Green's function for the above problem is also used, and a new reproducing cone also used.
