On nonlinear boundary value problems for higher order functional difference equations with p-Laplacian

Sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions of nonlinear boundary value problems for higher order functional difference equations with p-Laplacian are established by using the continuation theorem. The result is proved without using the monotonicity of B _i (i=0,1). We allow f to be at most linear, superlinear or sublinear in obtained results.     

On Sturm–Liouville boundary value problems for second-order nonlinear functional finite difference equations

Motivated by the interesting paper [I. Karaca, Discrete third-order three-point boundary value problem, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 205 (2007) 458–468], this paper is concerned with a class of boundary value problems for second-order functional difference equations. Sufficient conditions for the existence of at least one solution of a Sturm–Liouville boundary value problem for second-order nonlinear functional difference equations are established. We allow f to be at most linear, superlinear or sublinear in obtained results.     

On positive solutions to fractional sum boundary value problems for nonlinear fractional difference equations

In this paper, we study a new class of 3‐point boundary value problems of nonlinear fractional difference equations. Our problems contain difference and fractional sum boundary conditions. Existence and uniqueness of solutions are proved by using the Banach fixed‐point theorem, and existence of the positive solutions is proved by using the Krasnoselskii's fixed‐point theorem.

Solutions of periodic boundary value problems for second-order nonlinear differential equations via variational methods

By introducing a variational framework for a class of second order nonlinear differential equations with non-separated periodic boundary value conditions, some results on the existence of non-trivial, positive and negative solutions of the problems are obtained. Some results by Atici-Guseinov, Graef-Kong, etc. obtained by topological degree methods are extended. The resonant case of the problems where the nonlinearities are unbounded and satisfy Ahmad-Lazer-Paul type conditions is also considered.     

Two-point boundary value problems for finite fractional difference equations

In this paper, we introduce a two-point boundary value problem for a finite fractional difference equation. We invert the problem and construct and analyse the corresponding Green's function. We then provide an application and obtain sufficient conditions for the existence of positive solutions for a two-point boundary value problem for a nonlinear finite fractional difference equation.     

Existence theorems for boundary value problems in difference equations

In this research, we study linear difference equations with constant coefficients subject to boundary conditions. Necessary and/or sufficient conditions for the existence of a unique solution will be established. The proofs of the existence and uniqueness theorems are established by means of special types of determinants called Mosaic Vandermonde determinants.

First order difference equations with maxima and nonlinear functional boundary value conditions

This paper is devoted to the existence of solutions for a problem of first order difference equations with maxima and with nonlinear functional boundary value conditions. Such boundary conditions include, among others, initial, periodic, antiperiodic and multipoint boundary value conditions, as particular cases.     

Multipoint boundary value problems for nonlinear ordinary differential equations

In this paper we provide sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions to multipoint boundary value problems for nonlinear ordinary differential equations. We consider the case where the solution space of the associated linear homogeneous boundary value problem is less than 2. When this solution space is trivial, we establish existence results via the Schauder Fixed Point Theorem. In the resonance case, we use a projection scheme to provide criteria for the solvability of our nonlinear boundary value problem. We accomplish this by analyzing a link between the behavior of the nonlinearity and the solution set of the associated linear homogeneous boundary value problem.     

Initial boundary value problems for nonlinear dispersive wave equations

In this paper we study initial value boundary problems of two types of nonlinear dispersive wave equations on the half-line and on a finite interval subject to homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. We first prove local well-posedness of the rod equation and of the b-equation for general initial data. Furthermore, we are able to specify conditions on the initial data which on the one hand guarantee global existence and on the other hand produce solutions with a finite life span. In the case of finite time singularities we are able to describe the precise blow-up scenario of breaking waves. Our approach is based on sharp extension results for functions on the half-line or on a finite interval and several symmetry preserving properties of the equations under discussion.     

Multiple solutions for boundary value problems of second-order difference equations with resonance

In this paper, we study the existence of multiple solutions for boundary value problems of second-order difference equations with resonance at both infinity and zero by using Morse theory, critical point theory, minimax methods and bifurcation theory.     

Two point boundary value problems associated with a system of first order nonlinear impulse differential equations

We show assumptions of boundedness and Lipschitz conditions that guarantee the existence of a unique solution to a nonlinear differential boundary value problem. The result utilizes a variation of parameters of formula due to V. Lakshmikantham, et. al. and depends upon a contraction mapping.

Solutions of sturm-liouville boundary value problems for higher-order differential equations

The existence of solutions of a class of two-point boundary value problems for higher order differential equations is studied. Sufficient conditions for the existence of at least one solution are established. It is of interest that the nonlinearityf in the equation depends on all lower derivatives, and the growth conditions imposed onf are allowed to be super-linear (the degrees of phases variables are allowed to be greater than 1 if it is a polynomial). The results are different from known ones since we don’t apply the Green’s functions of the corresponding problem and the method to obtain a priori bound of solutions are different enough from known ones. Examples that can not be solved by known results are given to illustrate our theorems.     

Impulsive boundary value problems with nonlinear boundary conditions

In this paper, the upper and lower solution method and Schauder’s fixed point theorem are employed in the study of boundary value problems for a class of second-order impulsive ordinary differential equations with nonlinear boundary conditions. We prove the existence of solutions to the problem under the assumption that there exist lower and upper solutions associated with the problem.
