Existence results for periodic solutions of integro-dynamic equations on time scales

Using the topological degree method and Schaefer’s fixed point theorem, we deduce the existence of periodic solutions of nonlinear system of integro-dynamic equations on periodic time scales. Furthermore, we provide several applications to scalar equations, in which we develop a time scale analog of Lyapunov’s direct method and prove an analog of Sobolev’s inequality on time scales to arrive at a priori bound on all periodic solutions. Therefore, we improve and generalize the corresponding results in Burton et al. (Ann Mat Pura Appl 161:271–283, 1992)

Oscillation of second-order damped dynamic equations on time scales

The study of dynamic equations on time scales has been created in order to unify the study of differential and difference equations. The general idea is to prove a result for a dynamic equation where the domain of the unknown function is a so-called time scale, which may be an arbitrary closed subset of the reals. This way results not only related to the set of real numbers or set of integers but those pertaining to more general time scales are obtained. In this paper, by employing the Riccati transformation technique we will establish some oscillation criteria for second-order linear and nonlinear dynamic equations with damping terms on a time scale . Our results in the special case when and extend and improve some well-known oscillation results for second-order linear and nonlinear differential and difference equations and are essentially new on the time scales , h>0, for q>1, , etc. Some examples are considered to illustrate our main results.

Impulsive nonlocal differential equations through differential equations on time scales

We propose a non-standard approach to impulsive differential equations in Banach spaces by embedding this type of problems into differential (dynamic) problems on time scales.

Blow-up time for solutions to some nonlinear Volterra integral equations

The problem of the estimating of a blow-up time for solutions of Volterra nonlinear integral equation with convolution kernel is studied. New estimates, lower and upper, are found and, moreover, the procedure for the improvement of the lower estimate is presented. Main results are illustrated by examples. The new estimates are also compared with some earlier ones related to a shear band model.     

Some new integral inequalities and their applications in studying the stability of nonlinear integro-differential equations with time delay

In this paper, we generalize some integral inequalities to more general situations, and the inequalities of Pachpatte type are corollaries of our's. We establish bounds on the solutions, and we show the usefulness of our results in investigating the asymptotic behavior and the stability on the solutions of integral equations, differential equations and integro-differential equations with time delay.     

Blow-up behavior of Hammerstein-type delay Volterra integral equations

We consider the blow-up behavior of Hammerstein-type delay Volterra integral equations (DVIEs). Two types of delays, i.e., vanishing delay (pantograph delay) and non-vanishing delay (constant delay), are considered. With the same assumptions of Volterra integral equations (VIEs), in a similar technology to VIEs, the blow-up conditions of the two types of DVIEs are given. The blow-up behaviors of DVIEs with non-vanishing delay vary with different initial functions and the length of the lag, while DVIEs with pantograph delay own the same blow-up behavior of VIEs. Some examples and applications to delay differential equations illustrate this influence.
