Multiple nonnegative solutions of systems with coupled nonlinear boundary conditions

Using the theory of fixed point index, we discuss the existence and multiplicity of nonnegative solutions of a wide class of boundary value problems with coupled nonlinear boundary conditions. Our approach is fairly general and covers a variety of situations. We illustrate in an example that all the constants that occur in our theory can be computed.

On four-point nonlocal boundary value problems of nonlinear integro-differential equations of fractional order

In this paper, we prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions for a four-point nonlocal boundary value problem of nonlinear integro-differential equations of fractional order q ∈ (1, 2] by applying some standard fixed point theorems. An illustrative example is also presented.     

Matrix representations of fourth-order boundary value problems with coupled or mixed boundary conditions

An equivalence between a class of regular self-adjoint fourth-order boundary value problems with coupled or mixed boundary conditions and a certain class of matrix problems is investigated. Such an equivalence was previously known only in the second-order case and fourth-order case with separated boundary conditions.     

Existence of solutions for fractional differential equations with multi-point boundary conditions

We discuss the existence of solutions for a nonlinear multi-point boundary value problem of integro-differential equations of fractional order q ∈ (1, 2]. Our analysis relies on the contraction mapping principle and the Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem. Example is provided to illustrate the theory.     

Nonlinear partial differential equations of fourth order under mixed boundary conditions

Solutions to nonlinear partial differential equations of fourth order are studied. Boundary regularity is proved for solutions that satisfy mixed boundary conditions. Various geometric situations including so called triple points are considered. Regularity is measured in Sobolev-Slobodeckii spaces and the results are sharp in this scale. The approach is based on the use of a first order difference quotient method.     

Nonlocal boundary value problem for generalized Hilfer implicit fractional differential equations

In this paper, we derive the equivalent fractional integral equation to the nonlinear implicit fractional differential equations involving Ψ-Hilfer fractional derivative subject to nonlocal fractional integral boundary conditions. The existence of a solution, Ulam–Hyers, and Ulam–Hyers–Rassias stability have been acquired by means of an equivalent fractional integral equation. Our investigations depend on the fixed-point theorem due to Krasnoselskii and the Gronwall inequality involving Ψ-Riemann–Liouville fractional integral. Finally, examples are provided to show the utilization of primary outcomes.     

Time delayed parabolic systems with coupled nonlinear boundary conditions

The aim of this paper is to show the existence and uniqueness of a solution for a system of time-delayed parabolic equations with coupled nonlinear boundary conditions. The time delays are of discrete type which may appear in the reaction function as well as in the boundary function. The approach to the problem is by the method of upper and lower solutions for nonquasimonotone functions.

We give an example to illustrate our results.

Finite difference scheme for time-space fractional diffusion equation with fractional boundary conditions

In this paper, the finite difference scheme is developed for the time-space fractional diffusion equation with Dirichlet and fractional boundary conditions. The time and space fractional derivatives are considered in the senses of Caputo and Riemann-Liouville, respectively. The stability and convergence of the proposed numerical scheme are strictly proved, and the convergence order is O(τ^2−α+h²). Numerical experiments are performed to confirm the accuracy and efficiency of our scheme.     

On solvability of a boundary value problem for a nonhomogeneous biharmonic equation with a boundary operator of a fractional order

This paper is concerned with the solvability of a boundary value problem for a nonhomogeneous biharmonic equation. The boundary data is determined by a differential operator of fractional order in the Riemann-Liouville sense. The considered problem is a generalization of the known Dirichlet and Neumann problems.     

Positive solutions for a singular fractional boundary value problem

We investigate the existence of positive solutions for a system of Riemann-Liouville fractional differential equations, supplemented with uncoupled nonlocal boundary conditions which contain various fractional derivatives and Riemann-Stieltjes integrals, and the nonlinearities of the system are nonnegative functions and they may be singular at the time variable. In the proof of our main theorems, we use the Guo-Krasnosel'skii fixed point theorem.

A general study on random integro-differential equations of arbitrary order

Here the broad study is depending on random integro-differential equations (RIDE) of arbitrary order. The fractional order is in terms of $\psi$-Hilfer fractional operator. This work reveals the dynamical behaviour such as existence, uniqueness and stability solutions for RIDE involving fractional order. Thus initial value problem (IVP), boundary value problem (BVP), impulsive effect and nonlocal conditions are taken in account to prove the results.

The classification of self-adjoint boundary conditions: Separated, coupled, and mixed

There are three basic types of self-adjoint regular and singular boundary conditions: separated, coupled, and mixed. For even order problems with real coefficients, one regular endpoint and arbitrary deficiency index d, we give a construction for each type and determine the number of possible conditions of each type under the assumption that there are d linearly independent square-integrable solutions for some real value of the spectral parameter. In the separated case our construction yields non-real conditions for all orders greater than two. It is well known that no such conditions exist in the second order case. Our construction gives a direct alternative to the recent construction of Everitt and Markus which uses the theory of symplectic spaces. We believe our construction will prove useful in the spectral analysis of these operators and in obtaining canonical forms of self-adjoint boundary conditions. Such forms are known only in the second order, i.e. Sturm-Liouville, case. Even for regular problems of order four no such forms are available.
