Some comparison results are also formulated.     

Existence of solutions for second order impulsive differential equations with deviating arguments

This paper deals with impulsive second order differential equations with deviating arguments. We investigate the existence of solutions of such problems with nonlinear boundary conditions. To obtain corresponding results we discuss also second order impulsive differential inequalities with deviating arguments.     

Subharmonic solutions with prescribed minimal period for some second-order impulsive differential equations

This paper uses critical point theory and variational methods to investigate the subharmonic solutions with prescribed minimal period for a class of second-order impulsive differential equations. The conditions for the existence of subharmonic solutions are established. Our results rectify some known results in the literature and will allow us, in the future, to deal with the subharmonic solutions for more extensive impulsive problems.

The existence and multiplicity of solutions for an impulsive differential equation with two parameters via a variational method

In this paper, we study the existence and multiplicity of classical solutions for a second-order impulsive differential equation with periodic boundary conditions. By using a variational method and critical point theory, we give some new criteria to guarantee that the impulsive problem has at least one solution, two solutions and infinitely many solutions when the parameter pair (c,λ) lies in different intervals, respectively. Some examples are given in this paper to illustrate the main results.

On the existence of periodic solutions for the third-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations

In this paper,the existence of periodic solution for the third-order nonlinear ordinarydifferential equation of the form -^x f(-^x) g(-^x) h(x)=p(t) is consldered,where f,g,h andp are the continuous functlons, and p (t T) =p (t). By using the Leray-Schauder degreemethod,some sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence of T periodic solution for the equation are obtained. Some previous results are extended and improved.

The differential equations on time scales through impulsive differential equations

In this paper we investigate differential equations on certain time scales with transition conditions (DETC) on the basis of reduction to the impulsive differential equations (IDE). DETC are in some sense more general than dynamic equations on time scales [M. Bohner, A. Peterson, Dynamic equations on time scales, in: An Introduction With Applications, Birkhäuser Boston, Inc., Boston, MA, 2001, p. x+358; V. Laksmikantham, S. Sivasundaram, B. Kaymakcalan, Dynamical Systems on Measure Chains, in: Math. and its Appl., vol. 370, Kluwer Academic, Dordrecht, 1996]. The basic properties of linear systems, the existence and stability of periodic solutions, and almost periodic solutions are considered. Appropriate examples are given to illustrate the theory.

We study the existence of solutions for a nonlinear second order system of ordinary differential equations under various boundary conditions. Assuming suitable Nagumo type conditions we prove the existence of at least one solution applying the method of upper and lower solutions. Moreover, using topological degree methods we prove the existence of solutions under Landesman-Lazer type conditions.
