By employing the matrix Riccati technique and the integral averaging technique, new interval oscillation criteria are established for second-order matrix differential systems of the form [P(t)Y']' + Q(t)Y = 0.
By using the generalized Riccati technique and the averaging technique, we establish new oscillation criteria for the second order self-adjoint matrix differential system with damping (P(t)Y'(t))' + r(t)P(t)Y'(t) + Q(t)Y(t) = 0, t ≥ t₀. The criteria are different from most known ones in the sense that they are based on the information only on a sequence of subintervals of [t₀,∞), rather than on the whole half-line. In particular, our results complement a number of...
In this communication we state and analyze the new inverse problems in the theory of differential equations related to the construction of an analytic planar verctor field from a given, finite number of solutions, trajectories or partial integrals.Likewise, we study the problem of determining a stationary complex analytic vector field Γ from a given, finite subset of terms in the formal power series (...).
We study inverse spectral problems for ordinary differential equations on compact star-type graphs when differential equations have different orders on different edges. As the main spectral characteristics we introduce and study the so-called Weyl-type matrices which are generalizations of the Weyl function (m-function) for the classical Sturm-Liouville operator. We provide a procedure for constructing the solution of the inverse problem and prove its uniqueness.
The purpose of this paper is to study global existence and uniqueness of solutions of initial value problems for nonlinear fractional differential equations. By constructing a special Banach space and employing fixed-point theorems, some sufficient conditions are obtained for the global existence and uniqueness of solutions of this kind of equations involving Caputo fractional derivatives and multiple base points. We apply the results to solve the forced logistic model with multi-term fractional...
