Existence and multiplicity of solutions for fourth-order boundary value problems with parameters

In this paper we study the existence and multiplicity of the solutions for the fourth-order boundary value problem (BVP) u(4)(t)+ηu^″(t)−ζu(t)=λf(t,u(t)), 0<t<1, u(0)=u(1)=u^″(0)=u^″(1)=0, where is continuous, ζ,η∈R and λ∈R⁺ are parameters. By means of the idea of the decomposition of operators shown by Chen [W.Y. Chen, A decomposition problem for operators, Xuebao of Dongbei Renmin University 1 (1957) 95-98], see also [M. Krasnosel'skii, Topological Methods in the Theory of Nonlinear Integral Equations, Gostehizdat, Moscow, 1956], and the critical point theory, we obtain that if the pair (η,ζ) is on the curve ζ=−η²/4 satisfying η<2π², then the above BVP has at least one, two, three, and infinitely many solutions for λ being in different interval, respectively.

Multiple solutions for fourth-order boundary value problem

In this paper, we study the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions for the fourth-order two point boundary value problems. Making use of the theory of fixed point index in cone and Leray-Schauder degree, under general conditions on nonlinearity, we prove that there exist at least six different nontrivial solutions for the fourth-order two point boundary value problems. Furthermore, if the nonlinearity is odd, we obtain that there exist at least eight different nontrivial solutions.

Existence of positive solutions for Sturm-Liouville boundary value problems on the half-line

In this paper, we establish sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence of at least one positive solution, a unique positive solution, and multiple positive solutions for the Sturm-Liouville boundary value problem on the half-line. By using an effective operator, the fixed point theorems in cone, especially Krasnoselskii fixed point theorem, can be applied to such systems and then existence criteria are established. The interesting point of the results is that the nonlinear term f can be sign-changing.

In this paper, several existence theorems of positive solutions are established for nonlinear m-point boundary value problem for p-Laplacian dynamic equations on time scales, as an application, an example to demonstrate our results is given. The conditions we used in the paper are different from those in [H.R. Sun, W.T. Li, Positive solutions for nonlinear three-point boundary value problems on time scales, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 299 (2004) 508–524; H.R. Sun, W.T. Li, Positive solutions for nonlinear m-point boundary value problems on time scales, Acta Math. Sinica 49 (2006) 369–380 (in Chinese); Y. Wang, C. Hou, Existence of multiple positive solutions for one-dimensional p-Laplacian, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 315 (2006) 144–153; Y. Wang, W. Ge, Positive solutions for multipoint boundary value problems with one-dimensional p-Laplacian, Nonlinear Appl. 66 (6) (2007) 1246–1256].     

Positive solutions for an n-point nonhomogeneous boundary value problem

Existence of positive solutions for a thermostat model

We study a second order nonlinear boundary value problem subject to some nonlocal boundary conditions, which models a thermostat. The sensors are linear functionals, one gives feedback from part of the interval to a controller at one endpoint, the other gives feedback to a controller at the other endpoint. We determine the Green’s function and establish its useful properties which enables us to establish the existence of multiple positive solutions and to prove nonexistence results. We calculate all relevant constants in some explicit examples.

Sign-changing solutions on a kind of fourth-order Neumann boundary value problem

In this paper, we consider the fourth-order Neumann boundary value problem u(4)(t)−2u^″(t)+u(t)=f(t,u(t)) for all t∈[0,1] and subject to u^′(0)=u^′(1)=u^?(0)=u^?(1)=0. Using the fixed point index and the critical group, we establish the existence theorem of solutions that guarantees the problem has at least one positive solution and two sign-changing solutions under certain conditions.     

On the existence of positive solutions for a class of singular boundary value problems

In this paper, by the use of a fixed point theorem, many new necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of positive solutions in C[0,1]∩C¹[0,1]∩C²(0,1) or C[0,1]∩C²(0,1) are presented for singular superlinear and sublinear second-order boundary value problems. Singularities at t=0, t=1 will be discussed.     

Existence of positive solutions for a second-order ordinary differential system

In this paper we consider the existence of positive solutions for a second-order ordinary differential system, where the nonlinear term is superlinear in one equation and sublinear in the other equation. By constructing a cone K₁×K₂ which is the Cartesian product of two cones in space C[0,1] and computing the fixed point index in K₁×K₂, we establish the existence of positive solutions for the system. We remark that, differently from the literature, we deal with our problem on the Cartesian product of two cones, in which the feature of two equations can be exploited better.
