Oscillatory Solutions for Second-Order Difference Equations in Hilbert Spaces

Periodic solutions for nonlinear second-order difference equations

We establish conditions for the existence of periodic solutions of nonlinear, second-order difference equations of the form y(t + 2) + by(t + 1) + cy(t) = f (y(t)), where c = 0 and f :R→ R is continuous. In our main result we assume that f exhibits sublinear growth and that there is a constant β > 0 such that u f (u) > 0 whenever |u| ≥ β. For such an equation we prove that ifN is an odd integer...

Nonrectifiable Oscillatory Solutions of Second Order Linear Differential Equations

The second order linear differential equation (p(x)y′)′ + q(x)y = 0 , x ∈ (0, x0] is considered, where p, q ∈ C1(0, x0], p(x) > 0, q(x) > 0 for x ∈ (0, x0]. Sufficient conditions are established for every nontrivial solutions to be nonrectifiable oscillatory near x = 0 without the Hartman–Wintner condition.

Bounded Solutions to Nonhomogeneous Linear Second-Order Difference Equations

By using some solvability methods and the contraction mapping principle are investigated bounded, as well as periodic solutions to some classes of nonhomogeneous linear second-order difference equations on domains N0, Z \N2 and Z. The case when the coefficients of the equation are constant and the zeros of the characteristic polynomial associated to the corresponding homogeneous equation do not...

Periodic Solutions of Second Order Nonlinear Functional Difference Equations

The development of the study of periodic solution of functional difference equations is relatively rapid. There has been many approaches to study periodic solutions of difference equations, such as critical point theory, fixed point theorems in Banach spaces or in cones of Banach spaces, coincidence degree theory, KaplanYorke method, and so on, one may see [3-7,11,13-15] and the references ther...
