A generalized periodic boundary value problem for the one-dimensional p-Laplacian

Daqing Jiang, Junyu Wang (1997)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

The generalized periodic boundary value problem -[g(u’)]’ = f(t,u,u’), a < t < b, with u(a) = ξu(b) + c and u’(b) = ηu’(a) is studied by using the generalized method of upper and lower solutions, where ξ,η ≥ 0, a, b, c are given real numbers, g ( s ) = | s | p - 2 s , p > 1, and f is a Carathéodory function satisfying a Nagumo condition. The problem has a solution if and only if there exists a lower solution α and an upper solution β with α(t) ≤ β(t) for a ≤ t ≤ b.

A gradient inequality at infinity for tame functions.

Didier D'Acunto, Vincent Grandjean (2005)

Revista Matemática Complutense

Let f be a C1 function defined over Rn and definable in a given o-minimal structure M expanding the real field. We prove here a gradient-like inequality at infinity in a neighborhood of an asymptotic critical value c. When f is C2 we use this inequality to discuss the trivialization by the gradient flow of f in a neighborhood of a regular asymptotic critical level.

A Gronwall-like inequality and its applications

Adrian Constantin (1990)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

A generalized Gronwall-like inequality is established and applied in obtaining a right saturated solution for a class of differential equations and in estimating the solution of an evolution equation for the so called hidden variables.
