On Eigenvalue Intervals for Discrete Second Order Boundary Value Problems

In this paper, we consider discrete second order three-point boundary value problems. By exploring the properties of the associated Green's function and applying Guo-Krasnosel'skii's fixed point theorem, we show the existence of eigenvalue intervals.

On Eigenvalue Intervals and Eigenfunctions of Nonresonance Singular Dirichlet Boundary Value Problems

In this paper we shall consider the nonresonance Dirichlet boundary value problemwhere λ>0 is a parameter, p>0 is a constant. Intervals of A are determined to ensure the existence of a nonnegative solution of the boundary value problem. For λ=1, we shall also offer criteria for the existence of eigenfunctions. The main results include and improve on those of [2,4,6,8].     

Boundary Value Problems for First Order Stochastic Differential Equations

In this paper, we present a new technique to study nonlinear stochastic differential equations with periodic boundary value condition （in the sense of expectation）. Our main idea is to decompose the stochastic process into a deterministic term and a new stochastic term with zero mean value. Then by using the contraction mapping principle and Leray-Schauder fixed point theorem, we obtain the existence theorem. Finally, we explain our main results by an elementary example.

Solvability of a Kind of Sturm–Liouville Boundary Value Problems with Impulses via Variational Methods

The purpose of this paper is to use a three critical point theorem due to Ricceri to obtain the existence of at least three solutions for the following Sturm–Liouville boundary value problem with impulses

$\begin{cases}(\phi_{p}(x'(t)))'=(a(t)\phi_{p}(x)+\lambda f(t,x)+\mu h(x))g(x'(t)),\quad \mbox{a.e. }t\in[0,1],\\\Delta G(x'(t_{i}))=I_{i}(x(t_{i})),\quad i=1,2,\ldots,k,\\\alpha_{1}x(0)-\alpha_{2}x'(0)=0,\\\beta_{1}x(1)+\beta_{2}x'(1)=0,\end{cases}$

where p>1, φ _p (x)=|x|^p?2 x, λ, μ are positive parameters, \(G(x)=\int_{0}^{x}\frac{(p-1)|s|^{p-2}}{g(s)}\,ds\). The interest is that the nonlinear term includes x′. We exhibit the existence of at least three solutions and h(x) can be an arbitrary C ¹ functional with compact derivative. As an application, an example is given to illustrate the results.

     

Discontinuous Sturm–Liouville Problems with Eigenparameter-Dependent Boundary and Transmissions Conditions

The purpose of this paper is to study a Sturm–Liouville problem with discontinuities in the case when an eigenparameter appears not only in the differential equation but it also appears in both the boundary and transmission conditions. We suggest a new approach for the definition of a suitable Hilbert space and a symmetric linear operator defined in this space in such a way that the considered problem can be interpreted as the eigenvalue problem of this operator and for construction and approximation of a fundamental solution. We apply these results to find asymptotic formulas of eigenvalues and corresponding eigenfunctions.

Inverse Scattering Problems for Sturm–Liouville Operators with Spectral Parameter Dependent on Boundary Conditions

In this paper, we consider the inverse scattering problem for the Sturm–Liouville operator on the half-line [0,∞) with Herglotz function of spectral parameter in the boundary condition. The scattering data of the problem is defined, and its properties are investigated. The main equation is obtained for the solution of the inverse problem and it is shown that the potential is uniquely recovered in terms of the scattering data.     

Sturm–Liouville Problems with Coupled Boundary Conditions and Lagrange Interpolation Series

This paper is concerned with the application of the Kramer sampling theorem to Sturm–Liouville problems with coupled boundary conditions. The analysis is restricted to the case when the spectrum of the boundary value problem is simple. In all such cases, it is shown that Kramer analytic kernels can be defined and that each kernel has an associated analytic interpolation function to give the Lagrange interpolation series.     

On Boundary Value Problems with the Shift for Nonlinear Elliptic Equations of Second Order

In this paper, we consider the boundary value problem with the shift for nonlinear uniformly elliptic equations of second order in a multiply connected domain,For this sake, we propose a modified boundary value problem for nonlinear elliptic systems of first order equations, and give a priori estimates of solutions for the modified boundary value problem. Afterwards we prove by using the Schauder fixedpoint theorem that this boundary value problem with some conditions has a solution. The result obtained is the generlization of the corresponding theorem on the Poincar boundary value problem.

Existence of Positive Solutions to Fourth Order Quasilinear Boundary Value Problems

In this paper, we generalize the fixed point theorem of cone expansion and compression of norm type to the theorem of functional type. As an application, the existence of positive solutions for some fourth-order beam equation boundary value problems is obtained. The emphasis is put on that the nonlinear term is dependent on all lower order derivatives.
