This paper concerns the following system of nonlinear third-order boundary value problem: $$u_i^{\text{'}\text{'}\text{'}}\left(t\right)+f_i(t,u_1\left(t\right),\cdots ,u_n\left(t\right),u_1^{\text{'}}\left(t\right),\cdots ,u_n^{\text{'}}\left(t\right))=0,0<t<1,i\in \{1,\cdots ,n\}$$ with the following multi-point and integral boundary conditions: $$\left\{\begin{array}{c}{u}_i\left(0\right)=0u_i^{\text{'}}\left(0\right)=0u_i^{\text{'}}\left(1\right)=\sum _{j=1}^p{\beta }_{j,i}{u}_i^{\text{'}}\left({\eta }_{j,i}\right)+{\int }_0^1{h}_i(u_1\left(s\right),\cdots ,u_n\left(s\right))ds\hfill \end{array}\right.$$ where ${\beta }_{j,i}>0$, $0<{\eta }_{1,i}<\cdots <{\eta }_{p,i}<\frac{1}{2}$, $f_i:[0,1]\times {ℝ}^n\times {ℝ}^n\to ℝ$ and $h_i:[0,1]\times {ℝ}^n\to ℝ$ are continuous functions for all $i\in \{1,\cdots ,n\}$ and $j\in \{1,\cdots ,p\}$. Using Guo-Krasnosel’skii fixed point theorem in cone, we discuss the existence of positive solutions of this problem. We also prove nonexistence of positive solutions and we give some examples to illustrate our results.

We obtain estimates for the average value of the largest prime factor P(n) in short intervals [x,x+y] and of h(P(n)+1), where h is a complex-valued additive function or multiplicative function satisfying certain conditions. Letting $s_q\left(n\right)$ stand for the sum of the digits of n in base q ≥ 2, we show that if α is an irrational number, then the sequence ${\left(\alpha s_q\left(P\left(n\right)\right)\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ is uniformly distributed modulo 1.

For a double complex $(A,d^{\text{'}},d^{\text{'}\text{'}})$, we show that if it satisfies the $d^{\text{'}}{d}^{\text{'}\text{'}}$-lemma and the spectral sequence $\left\{E_r^{p,q}\right\}$ induced by $A$ does not degenerate at $E_0$, then it degenerates at $E_1$. We apply this result to prove the degeneration at $E_1$ of a Hodge-de Rham spectral sequence on compact bi-generalized Hermitian manifolds that satisfy a version of $d^{\text{'}}{d}^{\text{'}\text{'}}$-lemma.

We consider certain class of second order nonlinear nonautonomous delay differential equations of the form $$a\left(t\right)x^{\text{'}\text{'}}+b\left(t\right)g(x,x^{\text{'}})+c\left(t\right)h\left(x(t-r)\right)m\left(x^{\text{'}}\right)=p(t,x,x^{\text{'}})$$ and $${\left(a\left(t\right)x^{\text{'}}\right)}^{\text{'}}+b\left(t\right)g(x,x^{\text{'}})+c\left(t\right)h\left(x(t-r)\right)m\left(x^{\text{'}}\right)=p(t,x,x^{\text{'}}),$$ where $a$, $b$, $c$, $g$, $h$, $m$ and $p$ are real valued functions which depend at most on the arguments displayed explicitly and $r$ is a positive constant. Different forms of the integral inequality method were used to investigate the boundedness of all solutions and their derivatives. Here, we do not require construction of the Lyapunov-Krasovski functional to establish our results....

Improving on a theorem of Heath-Brown, we show that if X is sufficiently large then a positive proportion of the values n³ + 2: n ∈ (X,2X] have a prime factor larger than $X^{1+{10}^{-52}}$.

For μ ∈ ℂ such that Re μ > 0 let ${ℱ}_{\mu }$ denote the class of all non-vanishing analytic functions f in the unit disk with f(0) = 1 and $Re(2\pi /\mu z{f}^{\text{'}}\left(z\right)/f\left(z\right)+(1+z)/(1-z))>0$ in . For any fixed z₀ in the unit disk, a ∈ ℂ with |a| ≤ 1 and λ ∈ ̅, we shall determine the region of variability V(z₀,λ) for log f(z₀) when f ranges over the class ${ℱ}_{\mu }\left(\lambda \right)=f\in {ℱ}_{\mu }:f^{\text{'}}\left(0\right)=(\mu /\pi )(\lambda -1)and{f}^{\text{'}\text{'}}\left(0\right)=(\mu /\pi )\left(a\right(1-\left|\lambda \right|²)+(\mu /\pi )(\lambda -1)²-(1-\lambda ²))$. In the final section we graphically illustrate the region of variability for several sets of parameters.

We study the existence of solutions of the system $$\left\{\begin{array}{c}{\left({\phi }_1\left(u_1^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)\right)\right)}^{\text{'}}=f_1(t,u_1\left(t\right),u_2\left(t\right),u_1^{\text{'}}\left(t\right),u_2^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)),\text{a.e.}t\in [0,T],{\left({\phi }_2\left(u_2^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)\right)\right)}^{\text{'}}=f_2(t,u_1\left(t\right),u_2\left(t\right),u_1^{\text{'}}\left(t\right),u_2^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)),\text{a.e.}t\in [0,T],\hfill \end{array}\right.$$ submitted to nonlinear coupled boundary conditions on $[0,T]$ where ${\phi }_1,{\phi }_2:(-a,a)\to ℝ$, with $0<a<+\infty$, are two increasing homeomorphisms such that ${\phi }_1\left(0\right)={\phi }_2\left(0\right)=0$, and $f_i:[0,T]\times {ℝ}^4\to ℝ$, $i\in \{1,2\}$ are two $L^1$-Carathéodory functions. Using some new conditions and Schauder fixed point Theorem, we obtain solvability result.

This paper treats the question of the existence of solutions of a fourth order boundary value problem having the following form: $x^{\left(4\right)}\left(t\right)+f(t,x\left(t\right),x^{\text{'}\text{'}}\left(t\right))=0$, 0 < t < 1, x(0) = x’(0) = 0, x”(1) = 0, $x^{\left(3\right)}\left(1\right)=0$. Boundary value problems of very similar type are also considered. It is assumed that f is a function from the space C([0,1]×ℝ²,ℝ). The main tool used in the proof is the Leray-Schauder nonlinear alternative.

In this paper, we study a model for the magnetization in thin ferromagnetic films. It comes as a variational problem for $S^1$-valued maps $m^{\text{'}}$ (the magnetization) of two variables $x^{\text{'}}$: $E_{\epsilon }\left(m^{\text{'}}\right)=\epsilon \int {|{\nabla }^{\text{'}}·m^{\text{'}}|}^{2}d{x}^{\text{'}}+\frac{1}{2}\int {\left||{\nabla }^{\text{'}}{|}^{-1/2}{\nabla }^{\text{'}}·m^{\text{'}}\right|}^{2}d{x}^{\text{'}}$. We are interested in the behavior of minimizers as $\epsilon \to 0$. They are expected to be $S^1$-valued maps $m^{\text{'}}$ of vanishing distributional divergence ${\nabla }^{\text{'}}·m^{\text{'}}=0$, so that appropriate boundary conditions enforce line discontinuities. For finite $\epsilon >0$, these line discontinuities are approximated by smooth transition layers, the so-called Néel...

Viene dimostrata l'esistenza di soluzioni del problema di Darboux per l'equazione iperbolica $z_{xy}^{\mathrm{\prime \prime }}=f(x,y,z,Z_x^{\prime },z_y)$ sul planiquarto $x\ge 0$, $y\ge 0$. Qui, $f$ è una funzione continua, con valori in uno spazio Banach che soddisfano alcune condizioni di regolarità espresse in termini della misura di non-compattezza $\alpha$.

We are concerned with the solvability of the fourth-order four-point boundary value problem ⎧ $u^{\left(4\right)}\left(t\right)=f(t,u\left(t\right),u^{\text{'}\text{'}}\left(t\right))$, t ∈ [0,1], ⎨ u(0) = u(1) = 0, ⎩ au”(ζ₁) - bu”’(ζ₁) = 0, cu”(ζ₂) + du”’(ζ₂) = 0, where 0 ≤ ζ₁ < ζ₂ ≤ 1, f ∈ C([0,1] × [0,∞) × (-∞,0],[0,∞)). By using Guo-Krasnosel’skiĭ’s fixed point theorem on cones, some criteria are established to ensure the existence, nonexistence and multiplicity of positive solutions for this problem.

Let $p_1,p_2,\cdots$ be the sequence of all primes in ascending order. Using explicit estimates from the prime number theory, we show that if $k\ge 5$, then $$(p_{k+1}-1)!\mid \left(\frac{1}{2}(p_{k+1}-1)\right)!p_k!,$$ which improves a previous result of the second author.

We consider the boundary value problem $$\begin{array}{c}{u}^{\text{'}\text{'}\text{'}}\left(t\right)=f(t,u\left(t\right),u^{\text{'}}\left(t\right),u^{\text{'}\text{'}}\left(t\right)),0<t<1,\\ u\left(0\right)=u^{\text{'}}\left(0\right)=0,u\left(1\right)={\int }_0^{1}g\left(s\right)u\left(s\right)\mathrm{d}s,\end{array}$$ where $f:[0,1]\times {ℝ}^3\to {ℝ}^{+}$, $g:[0,1]\to {ℝ}^{+}$ are continuous functions. The case when $f=f\left(u\right(t\left)\right)$ was studied in 2018 by Guendouz et al. Using the fixed-point theory on cones they established the existence of positive solutions. Here, by the method developed by ourselves very recently, we establish the existence, uniqueness and positivity of the solution under easily verified conditions and propose an iterative method for finding the solution. Some examples demonstrate the validity of the...

We consider elementary operators $x\mapsto {\sum }_{j=1}^n{a}_{j}x{b}_j$, acting on a unital Banach algebra, where $a_j$ and $b_j$ are separately commuting families of generalized scalar elements. We give an ascent estimate and a lower bound estimate for such an operator. Additionally, we give a weak variant of the Fuglede-Putnam theorem for an elementary operator with strongly commuting families $a_j$ and $b_j$, i.e. $a_j=a_j^{\text{'}}+i{a}_j^{\text{'}\text{'}}$ ($b_j=b_j^{\text{'}}+i{b}_j^{\text{'}\text{'}}$), where all $a_j^{\text{'}}$ and $a_j^{\text{'}\text{'}}$ ($b_j^{\text{'}}$ and $b_j^{\text{'}\text{'}}$) commute. The main tool is an L¹ estimate of the Fourier transform of a certain class...
