Minimal solutions for two point boundary value problems

We consider the two point boundary value problemy″=f(x,y,y′), x∈[a,b], y(a)=A, y(b)=B. Assumingf satisfies the Carathéodory conditions, there exist under and overfunctions α and β, respectively, andf satisfies a suitable growth condition fory lying between α and β, we prove that the two point boundary value problem has a minimal solution in the region bounded by the under overfunctions. Our results extend results of G. Scorza Dragoni and G. Zwirner. They also include analogues of results of K. Ako and of the author for the casef is continuous.

The method of lower and upper solutions for third order singular four point boundary value problems

We mainly study the existence of positive solutions for the following third order singular four point boundary value problem $$\begin{cases}x^{(3)}(t)+f(t,x,x',-x'')=0,\quad 0<t<1,\\x(0)-\alpha x(\xi)=0,\quad x'(1)-\beta x'(\eta)=0,\quad x''(0)=0.\end{cases}$$ where 0≤α<1, 0≤β<1, 0<ξ<1,0<η<1. And we obtain some necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of C ²[0,1] positive solutions by means of the lower and upper solution method. Our nonlinearity f(t,x,y,z) may be singular at x,y,z,t=0 and/or t=1.

On the numerical integration of a boundary value problem involving a fourth order linear differential equation

A finite difference method for the numerical integration of the linear two-point boundary value problem $$y^{(4)} + f(x)y = g(x),y(a) = A_1 ,y(b) = A_2 ,y''(a) = B_1 ,y''(b) = B_2$$ is constructed and analyzed. The method usesf′,f″,g′,g″ at the boundary points to obtain anO(h ⁶) global error, while requiring only the solution of a system of linear equations associated with a five-band matrix. A typical numerical example is included to demonstrate the practical usefulness of the numerical procedure as well.

Semigroup-valued solutions of some composite equations

Let X be a linear space over the field K of real or complex numbers and (S, °) be a semigroup. We determine all solutions of the functional equation $$f(x+g(x)y)=f(x)\circ f(y)\quad \text{for}\quad x,y\in X$$ in the class of pairs of functions (f,g) such that f : X → S and g : X → K satisfies some regularity assumptions. Several consequences of this result are presented.     

On an exponential-cosine functional equation

The exponential cosine functional equationf(x + y) + (2f ²(y) – f(2y))f(x – y) = 2f(x)f(y) is studied in some detail whenf is a complex valued function defined on a Banach space. We supply conditions which ensure continuity off everywhere under the hypothesis thatf is continuous at a point. We also find solutions of the functional equation which are continuous at some point.     

Triple positive solutions for a class of third-order p-Laplacian singular boundary value problems

In this work, we study the existence of triple positive solutions for one-dimensional p-Laplacian singular boundary value problems $$\begin{array}{l}(\phi_p(y''(t)))'+f(t)g(t,\,y(t),\,y'(t),\,y''(t))=0,\quad 0<t<1,\\[3pt]ay(0)-by'(0)=0,\qquad cy(1)+dy'(1)=0,\qquad y''(0)=0,\end{array}$$ where φ _p (s)=|s| ^p?2 s,?p>1, g:[0,?1]×[0,?+∞)×R ²?[0,?+∞) and f:(0,?1)?[0,?+∞) are continuous. The nonlinear term f may be singular at t=0 and/or t=1. Firstly, Green’s function for the associated linear boundary value problem is constructed. Then, by making use of a fixed point theorem due to Avery and Peterson, sufficient conditions are obtained that guarantee the existence of triple positive solutions to the above boundary value problem. The interesting point is that the nonlinear term g involved with the first-order and second-order derivatives explicitly.     

Positive Lyapunov exponent for generic one-parameter families of unimodal maps

Letf _{a a∈A} be a C² one-parameter family of non-flat unimodal maps of an interval into itself anda* a parameter value such that

1. f_a* satisfies the Misiurewicz Condition,
2. f_a* satisfies a backward Collet-Eckmann-like condition,
3. the partial derivatives with respect tox anda of f _a ⁿ (x), respectively at the critical value and ata*, are comparable for largen.

Thena* is a Lebesgue density point of the set of parameter valuesa such that the Lyapunov exponent of f_a at the critical value is positive, and f_a admits an invariant probability measure absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure. We also show that given f_a* satisfying (a) and (b), condition (c) is satisfied for an open dense set of one-parameter families passing through f_a*.     

The existence of multiple positive solutions for a?class of?semipositone Dirichlet boundary value problems

In this paper, we consider the existence of multiple positive solutions for the following singular semipositone Dirichlet boundary value problem: $$\left\{\begin{array}{l}-x''(t)=p(t)f(t, x) +q(t),\quad t\in(0,1),\\[4pt]x(0) =0,\qquad x(1) = 0,\end{array}\right.$$ where p:(0,1)??[0,+??) and f:[0,1]×[0,+??)??[0,+??) are continuous, q:(0,1)??(???,+??) is Lebesgue integrable. Under certain local conditions and superlinear or sublinear conditions on f, by using the fixed point theorem, some sufficient conditions for the existence of multiple positive solutions are established for the case in which the nonlinearity is allowed to be sign-changing.

Krein’s Theorems for a Dissipative Boundary Value Transmission Problem

Let us consider the differential expression $$\ell (y)=-y^{\prime \prime }+q(x)y,\quad x\in I:=[0,c)\cup (c,\infty ),$$ where c is a transmission point and is regular for the differential expression ?(y). We assume that Weyl’s limit-circle case holds for the differential expression ?(y) on I. In this paper, using Krein’s theorems, we investigate the completeness of the root vectors of a singular dissipative boundary value transmission problem generated by ?(y).     

Elementary Graphs with Respect to <Emphasis Type="Italic">f</Emphasis>-Parity Factors

This note concerns the f-parity subgraph problem, i.e., we are given an undirected graph G and a positive integer value function \({f : V(G) \rightarrow \mathbb{N}}\), and our goal is to find a spanning subgraph F of G with deg _F ≤ f and minimizing the number of vertices x with \({\deg_F(x) \not\equiv f(x) \, {\rm mod} \, {2}}\) . First we prove a Gallai–Edmonds type structure theorem and some other known results on the f-parity subgraph problem, using an easy reduction to the matching problem. Then we use this reduction to investigate barriers and elementary graphs with respect to f-parity factors, where an elementary graph is a graph such that the union of f-parity factors form a connected spanning subgraph.     

Existence of solutions to a class of nonlinear second order two-point boundary value problems

In this paper, the existence and multiplicity results of solutions are obtained for the second order two-point boundary value problem −u^″(t)=f(t,u(t)) for all t∈[0,1] subject to u(0)=u^′(1)=0, where f is continuous. The monotone operator theory and critical point theory are employed to discuss this problem, respectively. In argument, quadratic root operator and its properties play an important role.

The admissible convex domains include triangles and parallelograms with a vertex at the origin and sections of unit disk.     

On generalized idempotents,lattice-dilations and contractions inf-rings

This paper falls into two related parts, concerned respectively with generalized idempotents (associated to superunities and subunities) and with lattice-dilations and contractions in anf-ringA. We characterize the mappings F∶:A→A satisfying ¦F(x) — F(y)¦=u ¦x — y¦ (u-dilations) as the mappings of the formF(x)=x(u — 2e) +b, withe being a generalized idempotent andb depending only onF, and obtain an analogous result for lattice-contractions. The structure of the sets of all the homogeneous ones (both cases) is studied and is related with the algebraic and lattice-theoretic properties of the ring.
