Consider boundary value problems for a functional differential equation $$\left\{\begin{array}{cc}{x}^{\left(n\right)}\left(t\right)=\left(T^{+}x\right)\left(t\right)-\left(T^{-}x\right)\left(t\right)+f\left(t\right),\hfill & t\in [a,b],\hfill \\ lx=c,\hfill \end{array}\right.$$ where $T^{+},T^{-}:𝐂[a,b]\to 𝐋[a,b]$ are positive linear operators; $l:{\mathrm{𝐀𝐂}}^{n-1}[a,b]\to {ℝ}^n$ is a linear bounded vector-functional, $f\in 𝐋[a,b]$, $c\in {ℝ}^n$, $n\ge 2$. Let the solvability set be the set of all points $({𝒯}^{+},{𝒯}^{-})\in {ℝ}_2^{+}$ such that for all operators $T^{+}$, $T^{-}$ with $\parallel T^{\pm }{\parallel }_{𝐂\to 𝐋}={𝒯}^{\pm }$ the problems have a unique solution for every $f$ and $c$. A method of finding the solvability sets are proposed. Some new properties of these sets are obtained in various cases. We continue the investigations of the solvability sets started in R. Hakl,...

Consider the homogeneous equation $$u^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)=\ell \left(u\right)\left(t\right)\text{for}\text{a.e.}t\in [a,b]$$ where $\ell :C\left(\right[a,b];ℝ)\to L\left(\right[a,b];ℝ)$ is a linear bounded operator. The efficient conditions guaranteeing that the solution set to the equation considered is one-dimensional, generated by a positive monotone function, are established. The results obtained are applied to get new efficient conditions sufficient for the solvability of a class of boundary value problems for first order linear functional differential equations.

We study the existence of one-signed periodic solutions of the equations $$\begin{array}{ccc}& x^{\text{'}\text{'}}\left(t\right)-a^2\left(t\right)x\left(t\right)+\mu f(t,x\left(t\right),x^{\text{'}}\left(t\right))=0,\hfill & \hfill x^{\text{'}\text{'}}\left(t\right)+a^2\left(t\right)x\left(t\right)=\mu f(t,x\left(t\right),x^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)),\end{array}$$ where $\mu >0$, $a:(-\infty ,+\infty )\to (0,\infty )$ is continuous and 1-periodic, $f$ is a continuous and 1-periodic in the first variable and may take values of different signs. The Krasnosielski fixed point theorem on cone is used.

For the differential equation $$u^{\left(n\right)}\left(t\right)=f(t,u\left({\tau }_1\left(t\right)\right),\cdots ,u^{(n-1)}\left({\tau }_n\left(t\right)\right)),$$ where the vector function $f:]a,b[\times R^{kn}\to R^k$ has nonintegrable singularities with respect to the first argument, sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness of the Vallée–Poussin problem are established.

Nonimprovable, in a sense sufficient conditions guaranteeing the unique solvability of the problem $$u^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)=\ell \left(u\right)\left(t\right)+q\left(t\right),u\left(a\right)=c,$$ where $\ell C(I,ℝ)\to L(I,ℝ)$ is a linear bounded operator, $q\in L(I,ℝ)$, and $c\in ℝ$, are established.
