A Sturm–Liouville problem depending rationally on the eigenvalue parameter

We consider the Sturm–Liouville problem (1.1) and (1.2) with a potential depending rationally on the eigenvalue parameter. With these equations a λ ‐linear eigenvalue problem is associated in such a way that L₂‐solutions of (1.1), (1.2) correspond to eigenvectors of a linear operator. If the functions q and u are real and satisfy some additional conditions, the corresponding linear operator is a definitizable self‐adjoint operator in some Krein space. Moreover we consider the problem (1.1) and (1.3) on the positive half‐axis. Here we use results on the absense of positive eigenvalues for Sturm–Liouville operators to exclude critical points of the associated definitizable operator. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Sturm-Liouville operators with indefinite weight functions and eigenvalue depending boundary conditions

We consider a class of boundary value problems for Sturm-Liouville operators with indefinite weight functions. The spectral parameter appears nonlinearly in the boundary condition in the form of a function τ which has the property that λ?λτ(λ) is a generalized Nevanlinna function. We construct linearizations of these boundary value problems and study their spectral properties.     

Solving boundary value problems of ordinary differential equations with non-separated boundary conditions

This paper focuses on solving the two point boundary value problem, in which boundary conditions are systems of nonlinear equations. The shooting method was used together with a combination of Newton’s method and Broyden’s method, to update the initial values of the differential equations. The experiments showed that the proposed method performed well, in the sense that the overall amount of work was less than that of the Newton Shooting method.     

Boundary value problems with global projection conditions

Parametrices of elliptic boundary value problems for differential operators belong to an algebra of pseudodifferential operators with the transmission property at the boundary. However, generically, smooth symbols on a manifold with boundary do not have this property, and several interesting applications require a corresponding more general calculus. We introduce here a new algebra of boundary value problems that contains Shapiro-Lopatinskij elliptic as well as global projection conditions; the latter ones are necessary, if an analogue of the Atiyah-Bott obstruction does not vanish. We show that every elliptic operator admits (up to a stabilisation) elliptic conditions of that kind. Corresponding boundary value problems are then Fredholm in adequate scales of spaces. Moreover, we construct parametrices in the calculus.     

Some singular third-order boundary value problems

In this paper, we consider some singular formally symmetric (self-adjoint) boundary value problems generated by a singular third-order differential expression and separated and coupled boundary conditions. In particular, we consider that the minimal symmetric operator generated by the third-order differential expression has the deficiency indices (3,3). We investigate same spectral properties related with these problems, and we introduce a method to find the resolvent operator.

Interior numerical approximation of boundary value problems with a distributional data

We study the approximation properties of a harmonic function u ∈ H^1?k(Ω), k > 0, on a relatively compact subset A of Ω, using the generalized finite element method (GFEM). If Ω = ??, for a smooth, bounded domain ??, we obtain that the GFEM‐approximation u_S ∈ S of u satisfies ‖u ? u_S‖ ≤ Ch^γ‖u‖, where h is the typical size of the “elements” defining the GFEM‐space S and γ ≥ 0 is such that the local approximation spaces contain all polynomials of degree k + γ. The main technical ingredient is an extension of the classical super‐approximation results of Nitsche and Schatz (Applicable Analysis 2 (1972), 161–168; Math Comput 28 (1974), 937–958). In addition to the usual “energy” Sobolev spaces H¹(??), we need also the duals of the Sobolev spaces H^m(??), m ∈ ?₊. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq, 2006     

Well-posedness of general nonlocal nonhomogeneous boundary value problems for pseudodifferential equations with partial derivatives

In the article we study the questions of well-posedness of general nonlocal boundary value problems for pseudodifferential equations in the Besov-type limit spaces.     

Boundary relations and their Weyl families

The concepts of boundary relations and the corresponding Weyl families are introduced. Let be a closed symmetric linear operator or, more generally, a closed symmetric relation in a Hilbert space , let be an auxiliary Hilbert space, let

and let be defined analogously. A unitary relation from the Krein space to the Krein space is called a boundary relation for the adjoint if . The corresponding Weyl family is defined as the family of images of the defect subspaces , , under . Here need not be surjective and is even allowed to be multi-valued. While this leads to fruitful connections between certain classes of holomorphic families of linear relations on the complex Hilbert space and the class of unitary relations , it also generalizes the notion of so-called boundary value space and essentially extends the applicability of abstract boundary mappings in the connection of boundary value problems. Moreover, these new notions yield, for instance, the following realization theorem: every -valued maximal dissipative (for ) holomorphic family of linear relations is the Weyl family of a boundary relation, which is unique up to unitary equivalence if certain minimality conditions are satisfied. Further connections between analytic and spectral theoretical properties of Weyl families and geometric properties of boundary relations are investigated, and some applications are given.

Boundary element methods for potential problems with nonlinear boundary conditions

Galerkin boundary element methods for the solution of novel first kind Steklov-Poincaré and hypersingular operator boundary integral equations with nonlinear perturbations are investigated to solve potential type problems in two- and three-dimensional Lipschitz domains with nonlinear boundary conditions. For the numerical solution of the resulting Newton iterate linear boundary integral equations, we propose practical variants of the Galerkin scheme and give corresponding error estimates. We also discuss the actual implementation process with suitable preconditioners and propose an optimal hybrid solution strategy.

Positive solutions and eigenvalue intervals of nonlocal boundary value problems with delays

The paper is concerned with the delay differential equation u^″+λb(t)f(u(t−τ))=0 satisfying u(t)=0 for −τ?t?0 and , where denotes the Riemann-Stieltjes integral. By applying the fixed point theorem in cones, we show the relationship between the asymptotic behaviors of the quotient (at zero and infinity) and the open intervals (eigenvalue intervals) of the parameter λ such that the problem has zero, one and two positive solution(s). If g(t)=t, by using a property of the Riemann-Stieltjes integral, the above nonlocal boundary value problem educes a three-point boundary value problem with delay, for which some similar results are established.     

Positive solutions for higher order multi-point boundary value problems with nonhomogeneous boundary conditions

We study nth order boundary value problems with a nonlinear term f(t,x) subject to nonhomogeneous multi-point boundary conditions. Criteria for the existence of positive solutions of such problems are established. Conditions are determined by the relationship between the behavior of f(t,x)/x near 0 and ∞ when compared with the smallest positive characteristic value of an associated linear integral operator. This work improves and extends some recent results in the literature for the second order problems. The results are illustrated with examples.
