Existence and uniqueness of periodic solutions for odd-order ordinary differential equations

Yongxiang Li, He Yang (2011)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

The paper deals with the existence and uniqueness of 2π-periodic solutions for the odd-order ordinary differential equation u ( 2 n + 1 ) = f ( t , u , u ' , . . . , u ( 2 n ) ) , where f : × 2 n + 1 is continuous and 2π-periodic with respect to t. Some new conditions on the nonlinearity f ( t , x , x , . . . , x 2 n ) to guarantee the existence and uniqueness are presented. These conditions extend and improve the ones presented by Cong [Appl. Math. Lett. 17 (2004), 727-732].

Characterising weakly almost periodic functionals on the measure algebra

Matthew Daws (2011)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let G be a locally compact group, and consider the weakly almost periodic functionals on M(G), the measure algebra of G, denoted by WAP(M(G)). This is a C*-subalgebra of the commutative C*-algebra M(G)*, and so has character space, say K W A P . In this paper, we investigate properties of K W A P . We present a short proof that K W A P can naturally be turned into a semigroup whose product is separately continuous; at the Banach algebra level, this product is simply the natural one induced by the Arens...

Multiple positive solutions of a nonlinear fourth order periodic boundary value problem

Lingbin Kong, Daqing Jiang (1998)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

The fourth order periodic boundary value problem u ( 4 ) - m u + F ( t , u ) = 0 , 0 < t < 2π, with u ( i ) ( 0 ) = u ( i ) ( 2 π ) , i = 0,1,2,3, is studied by using the fixed point index of mappings in cones, where F is a nonnegative continuous function and 0 < m < 1. Under suitable conditions on F, it is proved that the problem has at least two positive solutions if m ∈ (0,M), where M is the smallest positive root of the equation tan mπ = -tanh mπ, which takes the value 0.7528094 with an error of ± 10 - 7 .

Periodic solutions of the first boundary value problem for a linear and weakly nonlinear heat equation

One investigates the existence of an ω -periodic solution of the problem u t = u x x + c u + g ( t , x ) + ϵ f ( t , x , u , u x , ϵ ) , u ( t , 0 ) = h 0 ( t ) + ϵ χ 0 ( t , u ( t , 0 ) , u ( t , π ) ) , u ( t , π ) = h 1 ( t ) + ϵ χ 1 ( t , u ( t , 0 ) , u ( t , π ) ) , provided the functions g , f , h 0 , h 1 , χ 0 , χ 1 are sufficiently smooth and ω -periodic in t . If c k 2 , k natural, such a solution always exists for sufficiently small ϵ > 0 . On the other hand, if c = l 2 , l natural, some additional conditions have to be satisfied.

Functionals on Banach Algebras with Scattered Spectra

H. S. Mustafayev (2004)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

Let A be a complex, commutative Banach algebra and let M A be the structure space of A. Assume that there exists a continuous homomorphism h:L¹(G) → A with dense range, where L¹(G) is a group algebra of the locally compact abelian group G. The main results of this note can be summarized as follows: (a) If every weakly almost periodic functional on A with compact spectra is almost periodic, then the space M A is scattered (i.e., M A has no nonempty perfect subset). (b) Weakly almost periodic...

Existence of nonnegative periodic solutions in neutral integro-differential equations with functional delay

Imene Soulahia, Abdelouaheb Ardjouni, Ahcene Djoudi (2015)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

The fixed point theorem of Krasnoselskii and the concept of large contractions are employed to show the existence of a periodic solution of a nonlinear integro-differential equation with variable delay x ' ( t ) = - t - τ ( t ) t a ( t , s ) g ( x ( s ) ) d s + d d t Q ( t , x ( t - τ ( t ) ) ) + G ( t , x ( t ) , x ( t - τ ( t ) ) ) . We transform this equation and then invert it to obtain a sum of two mappings one of which is completely continuous and the other is a large contraction. We choose suitable conditions for τ , g , a , Q and G to show that this sum of mappings fits into the framework of a modification of...

Three periodic solutions for a class of higher-dimensional functional differential equations with impulses

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

By using the well-known Leggett–Williams multiple fixed point theorem for cones, some new criteria are established for the existence of three positive periodic solutions for a class of n-dimensional functional differential equations with impulses of the form ⎧y’(t) = A(t)y(t) + g(t,yt), t t j , j ∈ ℤ, ⎨ ⎩ y ( t j ) = y ( t ¯ j ) + I j ( y ( t j ) ) , where A ( t ) = ( a i j ( t ) ) n × n is a nonsingular matrix with continuous real-valued entries.

On the uniqueness of periodic decomposition

Viktor Harangi (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let a , . . . , a k be arbitrary nonzero real numbers. An ( a , . . . , a k ) -decomposition of a function f:ℝ → ℝ is a sum f + + f k = f where f i : is an a i -periodic function. Such a decomposition is not unique because there are several solutions of the equation h + + h k = 0 with h i : a i -periodic. We will give solutions of this equation with a certain simple structure (trivial solutions) and study whether there exist other solutions or not. If not, we say that the ( a , . . . , a k ) -decomposition is essentially unique. We characterize those periods for which essential...

We study in the space of continuous functions defined on [0,T] with values in a real Banach space E the periodic boundary value problem for abstract inclusions of the form ⎧ x S ( x ( 0 ) , s e l F ( x ) ) ⎨ ⎩ x (T) = x(0), where, F : [ 0 , T ] × 2 E is a multivalued map with convex compact values, ⊂ E, s e l F is the superposition operator generated by F, and S: × L¹([0,T];E) → C([0,T]; ) an abstract operator. As an application, some results are given to the periodic boundary value problem for nonlinear differential inclusions governed...

Stability of periodic stationary solutions of scalar conservation laws with space-periodic flux

Anne-Laure Dalibard (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

This article investigates the long-time behaviour of parabolic scalar conservation laws of the type t u + div y A ( y , u ) - Δ y u = 0 , where y N and the flux A is periodic in y . More specifically, we consider the case when the initial data is an L 1 disturbance of a stationary periodic solution. We show, under polynomial growth assumptions on the flux, that the difference between u and the stationary solution behaves in L 1 norm like a self-similar profile for large times. The proof uses a time and space change of variables...

One-dimensional symmetry of periodic minimizers for a mean field equation

Chang-Shou Lin, Marcello Lucia (2007)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

We consider on a two-dimensional flat torus T defined by a rectangular periodic cell the following equation Δ u + ρ e u T e u - 1 | T | = 0 , T u = 0 . It is well-known that the associated energy functional admits a minimizer for each ρ 8 π . The present paper shows that these minimizers depend actually only on one variable. As a consequence, setting λ 1 ( T ) to be the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian on the torus, the minimizers are identically zero whenever ρ min { 8 π , λ 1 ( T ) | T | } . Our results hold more generally for solutions that...
