On the uniqueness of positive solutions for two-point boundary value problems of Emden-Fowler differential equations

Satoshi Tanaka (2010)

Mathematica Bohemica

The two-point boundary value problem u ' ' + h ( x ) u p = 0 , a < x < b , u ( a ) = u ( b ) = 0 is considered, where p > 1 , h C 1 [ 0 , 1 ] and h ( x ) > 0 for a x b . The existence of positive solutions is well-known. Several sufficient conditions have been obtained for the uniqueness of positive solutions. On the other hand, a non-uniqueness example was given by Moore and Nehari in 1959. In this paper, new uniqueness results are presented.

On the worst scenario method: a modified convergence theorem and its application to an uncertain differential equation

Petr Harasim (2008)

Applications of Mathematics

We propose a theoretical framework for solving a class of worst scenario problems. The existence of the worst scenario is proved through the convergence of a sequence of approximate worst scenarios. The main convergence theorem modifies and corrects the relevant results already published in literature. The theoretical framework is applied to a particular problem with an uncertain boundary value problem for a nonlinear ordinary differential equation with an uncertain coefficient.

On variational impulsive boundary value problems

Marek Galewski (2012)

Open Mathematics

Using the variational approach, we investigate the existence of solutions and their dependence on functional parameters for classical solutions to the second order impulsive boundary value Dirichlet problems with L1 right hand side.

One-step methods for ordinary differential equations with parameters

Tadeusz Jankowski (1990)

Aplikace matematiky

In the present paper we are concerned with the problem of numerical solution of ordinary differential equations with parameters. Our method is based on a one-step procedure for IDEs combined with an iterative process. Simple sufficient conditions for the convergence of this method are obtained. Estimations of errors and some numerical examples are given.

Operational Calculi for the Euler Operator

Dimovski, Ivan, Skórnik, Krystyna (2006)

Fractional Calculus and Applied Analysis

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 44A40, 44A35A direct algebraic construction of a family of operational calculi for the Euler differential operator δ = t d/dt is proposed. It extends the Mikusiński's approach to the Heaviside operational calculus for the case when the classical Duhamel convolution is replaced by the convolution ...
