A study of second order differential inclusions with four-point integral boundary conditions

Bashir Ahmad, Sotiris K. Ntouyas (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In this paper, we discuss the existence of solutions for a four-point integral boundary value problem of second order differential inclusions involving convex and non-convex multivalued maps. The existence results are obtained by applying the nonlinear alternative of Leray Schauder type and some suitable theorems of fixed point theory.

A Sturm-Liouville problem with spectral and large parameters in boundary conditions and the associated Cauchy problem

Jamel Ben Amara (2011)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We study a Sturm-Liouville problem containing a spectral parameter in the boundary conditions. We associate to this problem a self-adjoint operator in a Pontryagin space Π₁. Using this operator-theoretic formulation and analytic methods, we study the asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues under the variation of a large physical parameter in the boundary conditions. The spectral analysis is applied to investigate the well-posedness and stability of the wave equation of a string.

A sufficient condition for the boundedness of operator-weighted martingale transforms and Hilbert transform

Sandra Pot (2007)

Studia Mathematica

Let W be an operator weight taking values almost everywhere in the bounded positive invertible linear operators on a separable Hilbert space . We show that if W and its inverse W - 1 both satisfy a matrix reverse Hölder property introduced by Christ and Goldberg, then the weighted Hilbert transform H : L ² W ( , ) L ² W ( , ) and also all weighted dyadic martingale transforms T σ : L ² W ( , ) L ² W ( , ) are bounded. We also show that this condition is not necessary for the boundedness of the weighted Hilbert transform.

A survey and some new results on the existence of solutions of IPBVPs for first order functional differential equations

Yuji Liu (2009)

Applications of Mathematics

This paper deals with the periodic boundary value problem for nonlinear impulsive functional differential equation x ' ( t ) = f ( t , x ( t ) , x ( α 1 ( t ) ) , , x ( α n ( t ) ) ) for a.e. t [ 0 , T ] , Δ x ( t k ) = I k ( x ( t k ) ) , k = 1 , , m , x ( 0 ) = x ( T ) . We first present a survey and then obtain new sufficient conditions for the existence of at least one solution by using Mawhin’s continuation theorem. Examples are presented to illustrate the main results.

A survey of certain trace inequalities

Dénes Petz (1994)

Banach Center Publications

This paper concerns inequalities like TrA ≤ TrB, where A and B are certain Hermitian complex matrices and Tr stands for the trace. In most cases A and B will be exponential or logarithmic expressions of some other matrices. Due to the interest of the author in quantum statistical mechanics, the possible applications of the trace inequalities will be commented from time to time. Several inequalities treated below have been established in the context of Hilbert space operators or operator algebras....
