This paper is concerned with the existence of positive solutions of a multi-point boundary value problem for higher-order differential equation with one-dimensional $p$-Laplacian. Examples are presented to illustrate the main results. The result in this paper generalizes those in existing papers.

The half-linear differential equation $$\left(\right|u^{\text{'}}{|}^{\alpha }\mathrm{sgn}{u}^{\text{'}}{)}^{\text{'}}=\alpha ({\lambda }^{\alpha +1}+b\left(t\right)){\left|u\right|}^{\alpha }\mathrm{sgn}u,t\ge t_0,$$ is considered, where $\alpha$ and $\lambda$ are positive constants and $b\left(t\right)$ is a real-valued continuous function on $[t_0,\infty )$. It is proved that, under a mild integral smallness condition of $b\left(t\right)$ which is weaker than the absolutely integrable condition of $b\left(t\right)$, the above equation has a nonoscillatory solution $u_0\left(t\right)$ such that $u_0\left(t\right)\sim {\mathrm{e}}^{-\lambda t}$ and $u_0^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)\sim -\lambda {\mathrm{e}}^{-\lambda t}$ ($t\to \infty$), and a nonoscillatory solution $u_1\left(t\right)$ such that $u_1\left(t\right)\sim {\mathrm{e}}^{\lambda t}$ and $u_1^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)\sim \lambda {\mathrm{e}}^{\lambda t}$ ($t\to \infty$).

The paper is devoted to the question whether some kind of additional information makes it possible to determine the fundamental matrix of variational equations in ${ℝ}^3$. An application concerning computation of a derivative of a scalar Poincaré mapping is given.

The complex (bio)chemical reaction systems, frequently possess fast/slow phenomena, represent both difficulties and challenges for numerical simulation. We develop and test an enhancement of the classical QSSA (quasi-steady-state approximation) model reduction method applied to a system of chemical reactions. The novel model reduction method, the so-called delayed quasi-steady-state approximation method, proposed by Vejchodský (2014) and further developed by Papáček (2021) and Matonoha (2022), is...

We give a sufficient condition for the oscillation of linear homogeneous second order differential equation $y^{\text{'}\text{'}}+p\left(x\right)y^{\text{'}}+q\left(x\right)y=0$, where $p\left(x\right),q\left(x\right)\in C[\alpha ,\infty )$ and $\alpha$ is positive real number.

This paper deals with the oscillation problems on the nonlinear differential equation $\left(a\left(t\right)\right|x^{\text{'}}{|}^{p\left(t\right)-2}{x}^{\text{'}}{)}^{\text{'}}+b\left(t\right){\left|x\right|}^{\lambda -2}x=0$ involving $p\left(t\right)$-Laplacian. Sufficient conditions are given under which all proper solutions are oscillatory. In addition, we give a-priori estimates for nonoscillatory solutions and propose an open problem.
