Some new oscillation results for a nonlinear dynamic system on time scales

We study the oscillation of a system of two first order nonlinear equations on time scales. This form includes the classical Emden-Fowler differential equation and many of its extensions. We generalize some well-known results of Atkinson, Bohner, Erbe, Peterson and others. We illustrate the results by several examples, including a superlinear Emden-Fowler dynamic system.

Eigenvalue problems for second-order nonlinear dynamic equations on time scales

This paper is concerned with the existence and nonexistence of positive solutions of the second-order nonlinear dynamic equation uΔΔ(t)+λa(t)f(u(σ(t)))=0, t∈[0,1], satisfying either the conjugate boundary conditions u(0)=u(σ(1))=0 or the right focal boundary conditions u(0)=uΔ(σ(1))=0, where a and f are positive. We show that there exists a λ^∗>0 such that the above boundary value problem has at least two, one and no positive solutions for 0<λ<λ^∗, λ=λ^∗ and λ>λ^∗, respectively. Furthermore, by using the semiorder method on cones of the Banach space, we establish an existence and uniqueness criterion for positive solution of the problem. In particular, such a positive solution uλ(t) of the problem depends continuously on the parameter λ, i.e., uλ(t) is nondecreasing in λ, limλ→⁰⁺‖uλ‖=0 and limλ→+∞‖uλ‖=+∞.     

Oscillation of second order nonlinear dynamic equations with a nonlinear neutral term on time scales

In this article, we consider the oscillation of second order nonlinear dynamic equations with a nonlinear neutral term on time scales. Some new sufficient conditions which insure that any solution of the equation oscillates are established by means of an inequality technique and Riccati transformation. This paper improves and generalizes some known results. Several illustrative examples are given throughout.

On the exponential stability of dynamic equations on time scales

In this paper, we deal with some theorems on the exponential stability of trivial solution of time-varying non-regressive dynamic equation on time scales with bounded graininess. In particular, well-known Perron's theorem is generalized on time scales. Under rather restrictive condition, that is, integral boundedness of coefficient operators, we obtain a characterization of the uniformly exponential stability.     

On some dynamic inequalities of Steffensen type on time scales

In the present article, we investigate some new inequalities of Steffensen type on an arbitrary time scale using the diamond‐α dynamic integrals, which are defined as a linear combination of the delta and nabla integrals. The obtained inequalities extend some known dynamic inequalities on time scales and unify and extend some continuous inequalities and their discrete analogues.

Almost automorphic solutions of dynamic equations on time scales

In the present work, we introduce the concept of almost automorphic functions on time scales and present the first results about their basic properties. Then, we study the nonautonomous dynamic equations on time scales given by x^Δ(t)=A(t)x(t)+f(t)$x^{\mathrm{\Delta }}(t)=A(t)x(t)+f(t)$ and x^Δ(t)=A(t)x(t)+g(t,x(t))$x^{\mathrm{\Delta }}(t)=A(t)x(t)+g(t,x(t))$, t∈T$t\in \mathbb{T}$ where T$\mathbb{T}$ is a special case of time scales that we define in this article. We prove a result ensuring the existence of an almost automorphic solution for both equations, assuming that the associated homogeneous equation of this system admits an exponential dichotomy. Also, assuming that the function g satisfies the global Lipschitz type condition, we prove the existence and uniqueness of an almost automorphic solution of the nonlinear dynamic equation on time scales. Further, we present some applications of our results for some new almost automorphic time scales. Finally, we present some interesting models in which our main results can be applied.
