Maximum principles for a family of nonlocal boundary value problems
<p/> <p>We study a family of three-point nonlocal boundary value problems (BVPs) for an <it>n</it>th-order linear forward difference equation. In particular, we obtain a maximum principle and determine sign properties of a corresponding Green function. Of interest, we show th...
