In this paper we give a sufficient condition for the existence of maximal and minimal solutions to a discontinuous functional differential equation x′(t)=f(t,x(t),x(·)), x(0)=0. We apply the result to establish an existence theorem for the Darboux problem for a partial differential equation.     

A Massera type theorem for almost automorphic solutions of differential equations

In this note, we present a Massera type theorem for the existence of almost automorphic solutions of periodic linear evolution equations of the form x^′(t)=A(t)x(t)+f(t), where A(t) is unbounded linear operator depending on t periodically and generates a τ-periodic evolutionary process, f is almost automorphic. The main results are stated in terms of the almost automorphy of solutions and their Carleman spectra.

Parameter Dependence of Stable Manifolds for Nonuniform (μ, ν)-dichotomies

We construct stable invariant manifolds for semiflows generated by the nonlinear impulsive differential equation with parameters x'= A(t)x + f(t, x, λ), t≠τi and x(τ+i) = Bix(τi) + gi(x(τi), λ), i ∈ N in Banach spaces, assuming that the linear impulsive differential equation x'= A(t)x, t≠τi and x(τ+i) = Bix(τi), i ∈ N admits a nonuniform (μ, ν)-dichotomy. It is shown that the stable invariant manifolds are Lipschitz continuous in the parameter λ and the initial values provided that the nonlinear perturbations f, g are sufficiently small Lipschitz perturbations.     

Periodic solutions for wave equations with variable coefficients with nonlinear localized damping

We discuss the existence of periodic solutions to the wave equation with variable coefficients utt−div(A(x)∇u)+ρ(x,ut)=f(x,t) with Dirichlet boundary condition. Here ρ(x,v) is a function like ρ(x,v)=a(x)g(v) with g^′(v)?0 where a(x) is nonnegative, being positive only in a neighborhood of a part of the domain.

x^′(t)=f(t,x(t))     

Sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic solutions to some second order differential equations with a deviating argument

By means of Mawhin's continuation theorem, we study some second order differential equations with a deviating argument:

Global attractivity and positive almost periodic solution of a single species population model

3/2-criterion is built, which guarantees the global attractivity of positive solution for equation having the form x^′(t)=a(t)x(t)(1−L(t,xt)), where a(t)?0 and the linear functional L(t,⋅) is positive. Moreover, when the equation is almost periodic, the similar conditions can also guarantee the existence and uniqueness of almost periodic solution that is globally attractive. Our results improve those in literature.     

Uniform asymptotic stability for perturbed neutral delay differential equations

One-dimensional perturbed neutral delay differential equations of the form (x(t)−P(t,x(t−τ)))′=f(t,x_t)+g(t,x_t) are considered assuming that f satisfies −v(t)M(φ)?f(t,φ)?v(t)M(−φ), where M(φ)=max{0,max_s∈[−r,0]φ(s)}. A typical result is the following: if ‖g(t,φ)‖?w(t)‖φ‖ and , then the zero solution is uniformly asymptotically stable providing that the zero solution of the corresponding equation without perturbation (x(t)−P(t,x(t−τ)))′=f(t,x_t) is uniformly asymptotically stable. Some known results associated with this equation are extended and improved.     

A singular boundary value problem for odd-order differential equations

The odd-order differential equation (−1)ⁿx⁽²ⁿ⁺¹⁾=f(t,x,…,x⁽²ⁿ⁾) together with the Lidstone boundary conditions x^(2j)(0)=x^(2j)(T)=0, 0?j?n−1, and the next condition x⁽²ⁿ⁾(0)=0 is discussed. Here f satisfying the local Carathéodory conditions can have singularities at the value zero of all its phase variables. Existence result for the above problem is proved by the general existence principle for singular boundary value problems.     

A remark on Schrödinger operators

We study the almost everythere convergence to the initial dataf(x)=u(x, 0) of the solutionu(x, t) of the two-dimensional linear Schrödinger equation Δu=i? _t u. The main result is thatu(x, t) →f(x) almost everywhere fort → 0 iff ∈H ^p (R²), wherep may be chosen <1/2. To get this result (improving on Vega’s work, see [6]), we devise a strategy to capture certain cancellations, which we believe has other applications in related problems.     

Periodic solutions of semilinear equations of evolution of compact type

The existence of solutions in a weak sense of x′ + (A + B(t, x))x = f(t, x), x(0) = x(T) is established under the conditions that A generates a semigroup of compact type on a Hilbert space H; B(t,x) is a bounded linear operator and f(t, x) a function with values in H; for each square integrable ?(t) the problem with B(t, ?(t)) and f(t, ?(t)) in place of B(t, x) and f(t, x) has a unique solution; and B and f satisfy certain boundedness and continuity conditions.     

Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence and ɛ-uniqueness of bounded solutions of the equation x′ = f(x) − h(t)

We introduce the notion of ?-unique bounded solution to the nonlinear differential equation x′ = f(x) ? h(t), where f: ? → ? is a continuous function and h(t) is an arbitrary continuous function bounded on ?. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence and ?-uniqueness of bounded solutions to this equation.     

A nonlinear problem having a continuous locus of singular points and no multiple solutions

The boundary-value problem ?z″ = (z² ? t²)z′, ? > 0, z(? 1) = α, z(0) = β, t? [?1, 0], has been shown to have a solution, and moreover, depending on the choice of α and β, multiple solutions to it exist. We consider the more general equation f(z, t)z″ = (z^r ? t^s)z′ for a particular non-negative function f(z, t), and integrate the equation exactly. Depending on α and β, we find that either there are no solutions, or that only unique solutions exist. The conclusion is that the presence of a continuous locus of singular points, given by z^r = t^s, does not necessarily produce multiple solutions.

The paper discusses the existence of positive and dead core solutions of the singular differential equation (?(u^″))^′=λf(t,u,u^′,u^″) satisfying the boundary conditions u(0)=A, u(T)=A, min{u(t):t∈[0,T]}=0. Here λ is a nonnegative parameter, A is a positive constant and the Carathéodory function f(t,x,y,z) is singular at the value 0 of its space variable y.     

On a nonconvolution Volterra resolvent

Under fairly weak assumptions, the solutions of the system of Volterra equations x(t) = ∝₀^ta(t, s) x(s) ds + f(t), t > 0, can be written in the form x(t) = f(t) + ∝₀^tr(t, s) f(s) ds, t > 0, where r is the resolvent of a, i.e., the solution of the equation r(t, s) = a(t, s) + ∝₀^ta(t, v) r(v, s)dv, 0 < s < t. Conditions on a are given which imply that the resolvent operator f ∝₀^tr(t, s) f(s) ds maps a weighted L¹ space continuously into another weighted L¹ space, and a weighted L^∞ space into another weighted L^∞ space. Our main theorem is used to study the asymptotic behavior of two differential delay equations.
