On boundary-value problems for second order perturbed differential inclusions

This article studies the existence of solutions to boundary-value problems for second order multi-valued perturbed differential inclusions under the mixed Lipschitz and Carathéodory conditions. The existence of extremal solutions is also obtained under certain monotonicity conditions and the weaker nonconvexity conditions for multi-valued functions.     

Nonlinear boundary value problems for second order differential inclusions

In this paper, we study a class of nonlinear value boundary problems for second order differential inclusions with nonlinear perturbations, which satisfy the generalized Hartman condition weaker than that considered in some papers. Using techniques from multivalued analysis, theory of monotone operators and fixed points, we prove the existence of solutions in both “convex” and “nonconvex” cases. Our framework can be incorporated with Dirichlet, Neumann, and mixed boundary problems.     

Bifurcation of periodic solutions in differential inclusions

Ordinary differential inclusions depending on small parameters are considered such that the unperturbed inclusions are ordinary differential equations possessing manifolds of periodic solutions. Sufficient conditions are determined for the persistence of some of these periodic solutions after multivalued perturbations. Applications are given to dry friction problems.

Existence of solutions for nonlinear singular boundary value problems

Existence of solutions to the two-point boundary value problem (p(t)y')' = q(t)f(t, y,p(t)y'), y(l) = 0, lim_t→0+ p(t)y'(t) = 0 is established under a variety of conditions. Here p(0) = 0 is allowed, and q is not assumed to be continuous at 0, so the problem may be doubly singular. In addition, the Dirichlet problem for this differential equation is investigated

Boundary controllability of non-linear stochastic differential inclusions

The article is concerned with the boundary controllability of non-linear stochastic differential inclusions in a Banach space. Sufficient conditions for the boundary controllability are obtained by using a fixed point theorem for condensing maps due to Leray–Schauder non-linear alternative.     

Solvability of strongly nonlinear boundary value problems for second order differential inclusions

In this paper we study a problem for a second order differential inclusion with Dirichlet, Neumann and mixed boundary conditions. The equation is driven by a nonlinear, not necessarily homogeneous, differential operator satisfying certain conditions and containing, as a particular case, the p$p$-Laplacian operator. We prove the existence of solutions both for the case in which the multivalued nonlinearity has convex values and for the case in which it has not convex values. The presence of a maximal monotone operator in the equation make the results applicable to gradient systems with non-smooth, time invariant, convex potential and differential variational inequalities.     

Nonlinear boundary value problems for second order differential equations with causal operators

In this paper we deal with second order differential equations with causal operators. To obtain sufficient conditions for existence of solutions we use a monotone iterative method. We investigate both differential equations and differential inequalities. An example illustrates the results obtained.     

Splitting methods for second‐order initial value problems

We consider implicit integration methods for the solution of stiff initial value problems for second-order differential equations of the special form y' = f(y). In implicit methods, we are faced with the problem of solving systems of implicit relations. This paper focuses on the construction and analysis of iterative solution methods which are effective in cases where the Jacobian of the right‐hand side of the differential equation can be split into a sum of matrices with a simple structure. These iterative methods consist of the modified Newton method and an iterative linear solver to deal with the linear Newton systems. The linear solver is based on the approximate factorization of the system matrix associated with the linear Newton systems. A number of convergence results are derived for the linear solver in the case where the Jacobian matrix can be split into commuting matrices. Such problems often arise in the spatial discretization of time‐dependent partial differential equations. Furthermore, the stability matrix and the order of accuracy of the integration process are derived in the case of a finite number of iterations. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
