In this paper, we apply fixed point results for mappings in partially ordered function spaces to derive existence results for initial and boundary value problems in an ordered Banach space E. Throughout this paper, we assume that E satisfies one of the following hypotheses. (A) E is a Banach lattice whose every norm-bounded and increasing sequence is strongly convergent. (B) E is a reflexive la...

A method for solving certain nonlinear ordinary and partial differential equations is developed. The central idea is to study monodromy preserving deformations of linear ordinary differential equations with regular and irregular singular points. The connections with isospectral deformations and with classical and recent work on monodromy preserving deformations are discussed. Specific new resul...

sufficient conditions are established under which the zero solution x = 0 of equation (2) isunstable.
