On a finite difference analogue of a singular boundary value problem.
∗ Partially supported by Grant MM-428/94 of MESC.Systems of orthogonal polynomials on the real line play an important role in the theory of special functions [1]. They find applications in numerous problems of mathematical physics and classical analysis. It is known, that classical polynomials have a number of properties, which uniquely define them.
Let E be a metrizable locally convex topological vector space x ∈ E, and let D be a closed convex subset of E such that x ∈ D. In this paper we prove that the weakly sequentially continuous mapping F: D ∪ D which satisfies V̅ = c̅o̅n̅v̅({x} ∪ F(V))⇒ V is relatively weakly compact, has a fixed point. Employing the above results we prove the existence theorem for the Cauchy problem x'(t) = f(t,x(t)), x(0) = x₀. As compared with the previous...
Existence and uniqueness of the solution to a fourth order nonlinear vector periodic boundary value problem is proved by using the estimates for derivatives of the Green function for the corresponding homogenous scalar problem
We study existence, uniqueness and form of solutions to the equation where α, β, γ and f are given, and stands for the even part of a searched-for differentiable function g. This equation emerged naturally as a result of the analysis of the distribution of a certain random process modelling a population genetics phenomenon.
The functional-differential equation is closely related to Golomb’s self-described sequence ,We describe the increasing solutions of this equation. We show that such a solution must have a nonnegative fixed point, and that for every number there is exactly one increasing solution with as a fixed point. We also show that in general an initial condition doesn’t determine a unique solution: indeed the graphs of two distinct increasing solutions cross each other infinitely many times. In fact...
