The Cauchy problem for a singularly perturbed Volterra integro-differential equation

The Cauchy problem for a singularly perturbed Volterra integro-differential equation is examined. Two cases are considered: (1) the reduced equation has an isolated solution, and (2) the reduced equation has intersecting solutions (the so-called case of exchange of stabilities). An asymptotic expansion of the solution to the Cauchy problem is constructed by the method of boundary functions. The results are justified by using the asymptotic method of differential inequalities, which is extended to a new class of problems.     

Impulsive anti-periodic boundary value problem of first-order integro-differential equations

This paper is concerned with the anti-periodic boundary value problem of first-order nonlinear impulsive integro-differential equations. We first establish a new comparison principle, and then obtain the existence of extremal solutions by upper-lower solution and monotone iterative techniques. Some examples are presented to illustrate the main results.     

On the uniform asymptotic stability for a linear integro-differential equation of Volterra type

In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition on the uniform asymptotic stability of the zero solution of a linear integro-differential equation of Volterra type where the ordinary part is ax(t). We put emphasis on the case a>0. The proofs of our results are carried out by using the root analysis of the characteristic equation. In Section 5 we give some conjectures.     

Periodic boundary value problems for first-order impulsive dynamic equations on time scales

This paper deals with the periodic boundary value problem for a class of first-order impulsive dynamic equations on time scales. We introduce a new notion of lower and upper solutions, which extends the classical lower and upper solutions. The existence of extremal solutions is presented by virtue of the method of lower and upper solutions coupled with monotone iterative technique. An example is also included to illustrate the main results.     

On well-posedness of an initial value problem for nonlinear second-order impulsive integro-differential equations of Volterra type in Banach spaces

In this paper, we develop an existence and uniqueness theorem of the solution to an initial value problems for a class of second-order impulsive integro-differential equations of Volterra type in a real Banach space by using the generalized Banach fixed point theorem. An explicit iterative scheme for the solution and an error estimate of the approximation sequence for the initial value problem are also derived. Two examples are presented to demonstrate the application of our results.     

Boundary value methods for Volterra integral and integro-differential equations

New and effective quadrature rules generated by boundary value methods are introduced. We employ the introduced quadrature rules to construct quadrature methods for the second kind Volterra integral equations and Volterra integro-differential equations. These methods are shown to be effective and possess excellent convergence properties. The nonlinear multigrid method is applied to solve the discrete systems derived from the introduced numerical scheme. Numerical simulations are presented and confirm the efficiency and accuracy of the methods.     

A method for solving the linear boundary value problem for an integro-differential equation

A method for solving the linear boundary value problem for an integro-differential equation is proposed that is based on interval partition and the introduction of additional parameters. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of the problem are obtained.     

Mixed value problem for nonlinear integro-differential equation with parabolic operator of higher power

We study the questions of one-valued solvability of mixed value problem for nonlinear integro-differential equation, consisting a parabolic operator of higher power. By the aid of Fourier series of separation variables the considering problem we can reduce to study the countable system of nonlinear integral equations, one-valued solvability of which will be proved by the method of successive approximations. The convergence of Fourier series will be studied by means of integral identity.     

Variational approach for a p-Laplacian boundary value problem on time scales

In this paper, we study a second-order p-Laplacian dynamic equation on a periodic time scale subject to certain boundary value conditions. The variational structure of the above-mentioned boundary value problem is presented. Some new results on the existence of at least one or three distinct periodic solutions are established by means of the saddle point theorem, the least action principle as well as the three critical point theorem.

An even-order three-point boundary value problem on time scales

We study the even-order dynamic equation (−1)ⁿx^(Δ∇)n(t)=λh(t)f(x(t)), t∈[a,c] satisfying the boundary conditions x^(Δ∇)i(a)=0 and x^(Δ∇)i(c)=βx^(Δ∇)i(b) for 0?i?n−1. The three points a,b,c are from a time scale , where 0<β(b−a)<c−a for b∈(a,c), β>0, f is a positive function, and h is a nonnegative function that is allowed to vanish on some subintervals of [a,c] of the time scale.     

Existence of positive solutions for singular boundary value problem on time scales

This paper deals with a class of boundary value problem of singular differential equations on time scales. The conditions we used here differ from those in the majority of papers as we know. An existence theorem of positive solutions is established by using the Krasnosel'skii fixed point theorem and an example is given to illustrate it.     

Initial boundary value problem for generalized logarithmic improved Boussinesq equation

In this paper, we consider the initial boundary value problem for generalized logarithmic improved Boussinesq equation. By using the Galerkin method, logarithmic Sobolev inequality, logarithmic Gronwall inequality, and compactness theorem, we show the existence of global weak solution to the problem. By potential well theory, we show the norm of the solution will grow up as an exponential function as time goes to infinity under some suitable conditions. Furthermore, for the generalized logarithmic improved Boussinesq equation with damped term, we obtain the decay estimate of the energy. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
