Near viability for fully nonlinear differential inclusions

We consider the nonlinear differential inclusion x′(t) ∈ Ax(t) + F(x(t)), where A is an m-dissipative operator on a separable Banach space X and F is a multi-function. We establish a viability result under Lipschitz hypothesis on F, that consists in proving the existence of solutions of the differential inclusion above, starting from a given set, which remain arbitrarily close to that set, if a tangency condition holds. To this end, we establish a kind of set-valued Gronwall’s lemma and a compactness theorem, which are extensions to the nonlinear case of similar results for semilinear differential inclusions. As an application, we give an approximate null controllability result.     

On local solutions of degenerate differential inclusions

We study the existence and properties of local solution sets for differential inclusions of the form (Ax)′ ∈ F(t, x), where A is a closed linear surjective operator with nontrivial null space and F is a compact set-valued mapping.     

Theoremes de Viabilite Pour les Inclusions Differentielles du Second Ordre

This paper gives conditions ensuring the existence for an initial value (x ₀,v ₀) of a solution to the second order differential inclusionx″(t) ∈F[x(t),x′(t)],x(0)=x ₀,x′(0)=v ₀ such thatx(t) ∈K for allt whereK is a nonempty given subset ofR ⁿ .      

On the existence and stability of periodic and almost periodic solutions of quasilinear equations with maxima

We study the problem of existence of periodic and almost periodic solutions of the scalar equation x′ (t) = − δx(t) + pmax _{u∈[t − h, t]} x(u) + f(t) where δ, p ∈ R, with a periodic (almost periodic) perturbation f(t). For these solutions, we establish conditions of global exponential stability and prove uniqueness theorems.

New approach to the numerical solution of forward-backward equations

This paper is concerned with the approximate solution of functional differential equations having the form: x′(t) = αx(t) + βx(t - 1) + γx(t + 1). We search for a solution x, defined for t ∈ [−1, k], k ∈ ℕ, which takes given values on intervals [−1, 0] and (k-1, k]. We introduce and analyse some new computational methods for the solution of this problem. Numerical results are presented and compared with the results obtained by other methods.      

Characterization of polyanalytic functions by meromorphic extensions from chains of circles

Let C _t = {z ∈ ℂ: |z − c(t)| = r(t), t ∈ (0, 1)} be a C ¹-family of circles in the plane such that lim _t→0+ C _t = {a}, lim _t→1− C _t = {b}, a ≠ b, and |c′(t)|² + |r′(t)|² ≠ 0. The discriminant set S of the family is defined as the closure of the set {c(t) + r(t)w(t), t ∈ [0, 1]}, where w = w(t) is the root of the quadratic equation ̅c′(t)w ² + 2r′(t)w + c′(t) = 0 with |w| < 1, if such a root exists.     

An Application of a Mountain Pass Theorem

We are concerned with the following Dirichlet problem: −Δu(x) = f(x, u), x∈Ω, u∈H ¹ ₀(Ω), (P) where f(x, t) ∈C (×ℝ), f(x, t)/t is nondecreasing in t∈ℝ and tends to an L ^∞-function q(x) uniformly in x∈Ω as t→ + ∞ (i.e., f(x, t) is asymptotically linear in t at infinity). In this case, an Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz-type condition, that is, for some θ > 2, M > 0, 0 > θF(x, s) ≤f(x, s)s, for all |s|≥M and x∈Ω, (AR) is no longer true, where F(x, s) = ∫ ^s ₀ f(x, t)dt. As is well known, (AR) is an important technical condition in applying Mountain Pass Theorem. In this paper, without assuming (AR) we prove, by using a variant version of Mountain Pass Theorem, that problem (P) has a positive solution under suitable conditions on f(x, t) and q(x). Our methods also work for the case where f(x, t) is superlinear in t at infinity, i.e., q(x) ≡ +∞. Received June 24, 1998, Accepted January 14, 2000.     

Existence of the mild solution for some fractional differential equations with nonlocal conditions

We are concerned in this paper with the existence of mild solutions to the Cauchy Problem for the fractional differential equation with nonlocal conditions: D ^q x(t)=Ax(t)+t ⁿ f(t,x(t),Bx(t)), t∈[0,T], n∈ℤ⁺, x(0)+g(x)=x ₀, where 0<q<1, A is the infinitesimal generator of a C ₀-semigroup of bounded linear operators on a Banach space X.     

3–global attractivity of the zero solution of the “food limited” type functional differential equation

We obtain 3/2-condition for global attractivity to occur in the “food-limited” type functional differential equationx′ (t) + [1 +x(t)][1 −cx(t)]F(t, x(·)) = 0. These results contain and improve all corresponding theorems in literature.     

Complete rank theorem of advanced calculus and singularities of bounded linear operators

Let E and F be Banach spaces, f: U ⊂ E → F be a map of C ^r (r ⩾ 1), x ₀ ∈ U, and ft (x ₀) denote the FréLechet differential of f at x ₀. Suppose that f′(x ₀) is double split, Rank(f′(x ₀)) = ∞, dimN(f′(_{x 0})) > 0 and codimR(f′(x ₀)) s> 0. The rank theorem in advanced calculus asks to answer what properties of f ensure that f(x) is conjugate to f′(x ₀) near x ₀. We have proved that the conclusion of the theorem is equivalent to one kind of singularities for bounded linear operators, i.e., x ₀ is a locally fine point for f′(x) or generalized regular point of f(x); so, a complete rank theorem in advanced calculus is established, i.e., a sufficient and necessary condition such that the conclusion of the theorem to be held is given.      

Local conjugacy theorem, rank theorems in advanced calculus and a generalized principle for constructing Banach manifolds

Applications of locally fine property for operators are further developed. LetE andF be Banach spaces andF:U(x ₀)⊂E→F be C¹ nonlinear map, whereU (x ₀) is an open set containing pointx ₀∈E. With the locally fine property for Frechet derivativesf′(x) and generalized rank theorem forf′(x), a local conjugacy theorem, i. e. a characteristic condition forf being conjugate tof′(x ₀) near x₀,is proved. This theorem gives a complete answer to the local conjugacy problem. Consequently, several rank theorems in advanced calculus are established, including a theorem for C¹ Fredholm map which has been so far unknown. Also with this property the concept of regular value is extended, which gives rise to a generalized principle for constructing Banach submanifolds.     

Quasiperiodic solutions of higher dimensional Duffing’s equations via the KAM theorem

In this paper, we consider the higher dimensional second order differential equations of the formẍ + ∇F(x,t) = 0,x ∈R ⁿ with a class of weakly coupled potentials F( x, t ), periodically depending on t. We prove the existence of infinitely many quasi-periodic solutions for such equations via the KAM theorem.

On a smooth solution of a boundary-value problem

We study a periodic boundary-value problem for the quasilinear equation u _tt −u _xx =F[u, u _t , u _x ], u(x, 0)=u(x, π)=0, u(x + ω, t) = u(x, t), x ∈ ℝ t ∈ [0, π], and establish conditions that guarantee the validity of a theorem on unique solvability.

On analytic solutions of operator differential equations

We find conditions on a closed operator A in a Banach space that are necessary and sufficient for the existence of solutions of a differential equation y′(t) = Ay(t), t ∈[0,∞),in the classes of entire vector functions with given order of growth and type. We present criteria for the denseness of classes of this sort in the set of all solutions. These criteria enable one to prove the existence of a solution of the Cauchy problem for the equation under consideration in the class of analytic vector functions and to justify the convergence of the approximate method of power series. In the special case where A is a differential operator, the problem of applicability of this method was first formulated by Weierstrass. Conditions under which this method is applicable were found by Kovalevskaya.     

The nonlinear version of Pazy’s local existence theorem

LetX be a real Banach space,U ⊂X a given open set,A ⊂X×X am-dissipative set andF:C(0,a;U) →L ^∞(0,a;X) a continuous mapping. Assume thatA generates a nonlinear semigroup of contractionsS(t): {ie221-2}) → {ie221-3}), strongly continuous at the origin, withS(t) compact for allt>0. Then, for eachu ₀ ∈ {ie221-4}) ∩U there existsT ∈ ]0,a] such that the following initial value problem: (du(t))/(dt) ∈Au(t) +F(u)(t),u(0)=u ₀, has at least one integral solution on [0,T]. Some extensions and applications are also included.     

Directionally Continuous Selections and Nonconvex Evolution Inclusions

In Bressan and Staicu, Set-Valued Anal. 2 (1994), 415–437, qualitative properties for solutions of the evolution inclusion Ax+F(t,x), with A generator of a contractive semigroup and F a lower semicontinuous closed valued multifunction defined on compact subset of R×cl(D(A)), were deduced as corollaries of similar properties for solutions of the evolution inclusion Ax+G(t,x), where G is upper semicontinuous compact convex valued, obtained from a suitable directionally continuous selection from F.In this paper we prove that the compactness assumption on the domain of F can be avoided.     

Conditions for the existence and uniqueness of bounded solutions of nonlinear differential equations

We establish conditions required for the existence and uniqueness of bounded solutions of the nonlinear differential equation f₁( \fracdx(t)dt ) = f₂( x(t) ) {f_1}\left( {\frac{{dx(t)}}{{dt}}} \right) = {f_2}\left( {x(t)} \right) , t ∈ ℝ.     

On linear selections of convex set-valued maps

We study continuous subadditive set-valued maps taking points of a linear space X to convex compact subsets of a linear space Y. The subadditivity means that φ(x ₁ + x ₂) ⊂ φ(x ₁) + φ(x ₂). We characterize all pairs of locally convex spaces (X, Y) for which any such map has a linear selection, i.e., there exists a linear operator A: X → Y such that Ax ∈ φ(x), x ∈ X. The existence of linear selections for a class of subadditive maps generated by differences of a continuous function is proved. This result is applied to the Lipschitz stability problem for linear operators in Banach spaces.
