Fourth-order problems with fully nonlinear boundary conditions

Differential inequality method, bounding function method and topological degree are applied to obtain the existence criterions of at least one solution for the general fourth-order differential equations under nonlinear boundary conditions, and many existing results are complemented.

Multiplicity results for positive solutions of some semi-positone three-point boundary value problems

In this paper, some multiplicity results for positive solutions of some singular semi-positone three-point boundary value problem be obtained by using the fixed point index method.     

Existence of two solutions of m-point boundary value problem for second order dynamic equations on time scales

In this paper, by means of a new twin fixed-point theorem in a cone, the existence of at least two positive solutions of m-point boundary value problem for second order dynamic equations on time scales is considered.     

On the even power mean of a sum analogous to Dedekind sums

Summary Our purpose is to extend results due to P. Chandra and L. Leindler concerning the order of approximation by means of Fourier series for functions belonging to generalized Lipschitz-classes.     

极紫外望远镜各通道夹角的测量

极紫外望远镜是由四个单通道的望远镜捆绑在一起,以便同时对太阳的相同部分观测,由于受地面装调以及发射过程中的影响,无法保证四个通道光轴严格平行,必然带来观测位置上的误差。只要测出各通道之间的光轴夹角,便可在像面上采取适当的处理方法,以便减小这种误差,但这一夹角的测量精度必须控制在0.1″内。为达到如此高的精度,采用了太阳局部边缘探测的方法,很好地解决了这一问题。     

Urea method for the synthesis of hydrotalcites

Mg-Al, Zn-Al and Ni-Al hydrotalcite-like compounds with high crystallinity were synthesized by using the decomposing property of urea at high temperature. The crystallinity and the regularly of the samples were much preferable to those synthesized by other methods. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

EXISTENCE AND UNIQUENESS OF THE SOLUTION FOR NONLINEAR THIRD-ORDER ROBIN BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEM WITH A TURNING POINT

The paper aims to obtain existence and uniqueness of the solution as well as asymptotic estimate of the solution for singularly perturbed nonlinear third- order Robin boundary value problem with a turning point.In order to achieve this aim,existence and uniqueness of the solution for third-order nonlinear Robin boundary value problem is derived first based on the upper and lower solutions method under relatively weaker conditions.In this manner,the goal of this paper is gained by applying the existence and uniqueness results mentioned above.     

Nonparametric estimation and adaptive control in a class of finite Markov decision chains

We consider a class of Markov decision processes withfinite state and action spaces which, essentially, is determined by the following condition: The state space isirreducible under the action of any stationary policy. However, except by this restriction, the transition law iscompletely unknown to the controller. In this context, we find a set of policies under which thefrequency estimators of the transition law are strongly consistent and then, this result is applied to constructadaptive asymptotically discount-optimal policies.Dedicated to Professor Truman O.
