On the solvability of a nonlocal boundary value problem with the equality of fluxes at a part of the boundary and of the adjoint problem

In the present paper, we consider a nonlocal boundary value problem for the Laplace operator in a circular sector with the equality of fluxes on the radii and with zero value of the solution on one of the radii. We also consider the adjoint problem. We prove the uniqueness of the solution of these problems and obtain an explicit form for the solution by the spectral method. When proving the solvability of the problems, we study the completeness and the basis property of systems of root functions for problems of the type of the Samarskii-Ionkin problem in L _p , which can be of interest in itself.     

On the solvability of the first nonlocal boundary value problem for an elliptic equation

We consider problems of the existence, uniqueness, and sign-definiteness of the classical solutions of the problem

$(Lu)(x) = f(x)(x \in D),u(x) - \beta (x)u(\sigma x) = \psi (x)(x \in S),$

where L is a linear second-order operator elliptic in the closure of a domain D ? R ⁿ and σ is a single-valued continuous mapping of S ≡ ?D into \(\bar D\).

We show that, under natural assumptions on the smoothness of β, σ, and the coefficients of L, this problem is Fredholm provided that either σ has no attractors on S or σ generates an attractor Θ on S and the spectral radius of the operator A defined on η(x) ∈ C(Θ) by the formula (Aη)(x) = |β(x)|η(σx) is less than unity.We obtain semieffective (in terms of a test function) conditions for the unique solvability of the problem.

On positive solutions of a nonlocal fractional boundary value problem

In this paper, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for a nonlocal boundary value problem of fractional differential equation. Firstly, we give Green’s function and prove its positivity; secondly, the uniqueness of positive solution is obtained by the use of contraction map principle and some Lipschitz-type conditions; thirdly, by means of the fixed point index theory, we obtain some existence results of positive solution. The proofs are based upon the reduction of the problem considered to the equivalent Fredholm integral equation of second kind.
