چکیده
We extend ODE results of Henderson and Thompson, see [10], to a large class of boundary value problems for both ODEs and PDEs. Our method of proof combines upper and lower solutions with degree theory.

Existence and multiplicity of positive solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic system with nonlinear boundary conditions
This study concerns the existence and multiplicity of positive weak solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic systems with nonlinear boundary conditions. Our results is depending on the local minimization method on the Nehari manifold and some variational techniques. Also, by using Mountain Pass Lemma, we establish the existence of at least one solution with positive energy.
متن کاملCritical points and positive solutions of singular elliptic boundary value problems ✩
Usually we do not think there is variational structure for singular elliptic boundary value problems, so it cannot be considered by using critical points theory. In this paper, we use critical theory on certain convex closed sets to solve positive solutions for singular elliptic boundary value problems, especially use the ordinary differential equation theory of Banach spaces to obtain new resu...
متن کاملExistence 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.
متن کاملOn 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...
متن کاملAnalytic solutions for the Stephen's inverse problem with local boundary conditions including Elliptic and hyperbolic equations
In this paper, two inverse problems of Stephen kind with local (Dirichlet) boundary conditions are investigated. In the first problem only a part of boundary is unknown and in the second problem, the whole of boundary is unknown. For the both of problems, at first, analytic expressions for unknown boundary are presented, then by using these analytic expressions for unknown boundaries and bounda...
