Convolution equations and nonlinear functional equations

The survey is devoted to applications of nonlinear integral equations to linear convolution equations, their discrete analogues, and also the connection of these equations with problems of radiative transfer, in particular, with the Ambartsumyan equations.Translated from Itogi Nauki i Tekhniki, Seriya Matematicheskii Analiz, Vol. 22, pp. 175–244, 1984.     

Boundary value problems of second order nonlinear functional difference equations

By using the critical point theory, some sufficient conditions for the existence and multiplicity of the boundary value problems to a class of second order functional difference equations are obtained.     

Operator equations and nonlinear eigenparameter problems

Theorems concerning the existence and the approximation of roots of operator equations in an abstract space are established and then applied, advantageously, to extend the theory of nonlinear eigenparameter problems.

Positive solutions of impulsive boundary value problems for first-order nonlinear functional differential equations

In this paper, we study the problem on the existence of positive solutions for a class of impulsive periodic boundary value problems of first-order nonlinear functional differential equations. By using the fixed point theorem in cones and some analysis techniques, we present some sufficient conditions which guarantee the existence of one and multiple positive solutions for the impulsive periodic boundary value problems. Our results generalize and improve some previous results. Moreover, our results show that positive solutions for the impulsive periodic boundary value problems may be yielded completely by some proper impulsive conditions (see Example 4.1 and Remark 4.2 in Sect. 4), and also implies that proper impulsive conditions are of great significance to simulate processes, optimal control, population model and so on.     

On nonlinear boundary value problems for higher order functional difference equations with p-Laplacian

Sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions of nonlinear boundary value problems for higher order functional difference equations with p-Laplacian are established by using the continuation theorem. The result is proved without using the monotonicity of B _i (i=0,1). We allow f to be at most linear, superlinear or sublinear in obtained results.     

Integral boundary value problems for first order nonlinear impulsive functional integro-differential differential equations

In this paper, we consider the existence of solutions for first order nonlinear impulsive functional integro-differential equations with integral boundary value conditions. We firstly build a new comparison theorem. Then by utilizing the monotone iterative technique and the method of lower and upper solutions, we obtain the existence of extremal solutions or quasi-solutions.     

Periodic problems and problems with discontinuities for nonlinear parabolic equations

In this paper we study nonlinear parabolic equations using the method of upper and lower solutions. Using truncation and penalization techniques and results from the theory of operators of monotone type, we prove the existence of a periodic solution between an upper and a lower solution. Then with some monotonicity conditions we prove the existence of extremal solutions in the order interval defined by an upper and a lower solution. Finally we consider problems with discontinuities and we show that their solution set is a compact R -set in (CT, L ²(Z)).     

On Sturm–Liouville boundary value problems for second-order nonlinear functional finite difference equations

Motivated by the interesting paper [I. Karaca, Discrete third-order three-point boundary value problem, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 205 (2007) 458–468], this paper is concerned with a class of boundary value problems for second-order functional difference equations. Sufficient conditions for the existence of at least one solution of a Sturm–Liouville boundary value problem for second-order nonlinear functional difference equations are established. We allow f to be at most linear, superlinear or sublinear in obtained results.
