چکیده

We consider the boundary value problem y(n)(t) = P (t, y), t ∈ (0, 1) y(ti) = 0, j = 0, . . . , ni − 1, i = 1, . . . , r, where r ≥ 2, ni ≥ 1 for i = 1, . . . , r, ∑r i=1 ni = n and 0 = t1 < t2 < · · · < tr = 1. Criteria are offered for the existence of double and triple ‘positive’ (in some sense) solutions of the boundary value problem. Further investigation on the upper and lower bounds for the norms of these solutions is carried out for special cases. We also include several examples to illustrate the importance of the results obtained.

Triple Positive Solutions for Multipoint Conjugate Boundary Value Problems

For the nth order nonlinear differential equation y(n)(t) = f(y(t)), t ∈ [0, 1], satisfying the multipoint conjugate boundary conditions, y(ai) = 0, 1 ≤ i ≤ k, 0 ≤ j ≤ ni − 1, 0 = a1 < a2 < · · · < ak = 1, and ∑k i=1 ni = n, where f : R→ [0,∞) is continuous, growth condtions are imposed on f which yield the existence of at least three solutions that belong to a cone.

Existence of positive solutions for a second-order p-Laplacian impulsive boundary value problem on time scales

In this paper, we investigate the existence of positive solutions for a second-order multipoint p-Laplacian impulsive boundary value problem on time scales. Using a new fixed point theorem in a cone, sufficient conditions for the existence of at least three positive solutions are established. An illustrative example is also presented.

Twin positive solutions for three-point boundary value problems of higher-order differential equations

A new fixed point theorem on cones is applied to obtain the existence of at least two positive solutions of a higher-order three-point boundary value problem for the differential equation subject to a class of boundary value conditions. The associated Green's function is given. Some results obtained recently are generalized. 1. Introduction. The multipoint boundary value problems for ordinary d...

Existence of multiple solutions for Sturm-Liouville boundary value problems

In this paper, based on variational methods and critical point theory, we guarantee the existence of infinitely many classical solutions for a two-point boundary value problem with fourth-order Sturm-Liouville equation; Some recent results are improved and by presenting one example, we ensure the applicability of our results.

On Approximate Stationary Radial Solutions for a Class of Boundary Value Problems Arising in Epitaxial Growth Theory

In this paper, we consider a non-self-adjoint, singular, nonlinear fourth order boundary value problem which arises in the theory of epitaxial growth. It is possible to reduce the fourth order equation to a singular boundary value problem of second order given by w''-1/r w'=w^2/(2r^2 )+1/2 λ r^2. The problem depends on the parameter λ and admits multiple solutions. Therefore, it is difficult to...
