Positive solutions of discrete third-order three-point right focal boundary value problems

We consider linear and nonlinear boundary value problems for third-order difference equations with three-point right focal boundary conditions. In the linear case, the existence of positive solutions corresponding to the first eigenvalue of the problem is established and an interval estimate for the first eigenvalue is obtained. In the nonlinear case, sufficient conditions for the existence and nonexistence of positive solutions are obtained. An example is included at the end of the paper to illustrate the sharpness of our results.     

Uniqueness implies existence and uniqueness criterion for nonlocal boundary value problems for third order differential equations

For the third order differential equation, we consider uniqueness implies existence results for solutions satisfying the nonlocal -point boundary conditions, Uniqueness of solutions of such boundary value problems is intimately related to solutions of the third order equation satisfying certain nonlocal -point boundary conditions. These relationships are investigated as well.

     

Boundary data smoothness for solutions of nonlocal boundary value problems for second order differential equations

Under certain conditions, solutions of the boundary value problem, y^″=f(x,y,y^′), y(x₁)=y₁, and , are differentiated with respect to boundary conditions, where a<x₁<η₁<?<ηm<x₂<b, r₁,…,rm∈R, and y₁,y₂∈R.     

On solutions of third order nonlinear differential equations

The aim of our paper is to study oscillatory and asymptotic properties of solutions of nonlinear differential equations of the third order with deviating argument. In particular, we prove a comparison theorem for properties A and B as well as a comparison result on property A between nonlinear equations with and without deviating arguments. Our assumptions on nonlinearity f are related to its behavior only in a neighbourhood of zero and/or of infinity.     

Concerning solutions of third order self-adjoint differential equations

Summary This work is concerned with the behavior of solutions of third order self-adjoint differential equations. It is well known that products of solutions of a second order self-adjoint equation are solutions of the third order equation. A converse of this fact is established. Existence of oscillatory solutions and asymptotic behavior of nonoscillatory solutions is established. Separation and comparison theorems are obtained for such equations.

Complete second order differential equations in Banach spaces with dynamic boundary conditions

In this paper, we deal with the mixed initial boundary value problem for complete second order (in time) linear differential equations in Banach spaces, in which time-derivatives occur in the boundary conditions. General wellposedness theorems are obtained (for the first time), which are used to solve the corresponding inhomogeneous problems. Examples of applications to initial boundary value problems for partial differential equations are also presented.     

Existence and uniqueness of solutions of boundary value problems for third order nonlinear differential equations

Multiple positive solutions of Dirichlet boundary value problems for second order impulsive differential equations

This paper is devoted to study the existence of multiple positive solutions for the second order Dirichlet boundary value problem with impulse effects. The main results here is the generalization of Liu and Li [L. Liu, F.Y. Li, Multiple positive solution of nonlinear two-point boundary value problems, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 203 (1996) 610-625] for ordinary differential equations. Existence is established via the theory of fixed point index in cones.
