### Positive solutions of nonresonant singular boundary value problem of second order differential equations

#### Abstract

This paper investigates the existence of positive solutions of nonresonant singular boundary value problem of second order differential equations. A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of $C[0,1]$ positive solutions as well as $C^1[0,1]$ positive solutions is given by means of the method of lower and upper solutions with the fixed point theorems.
