Lyapunov type inequalities for a second order differential equation with a damping term

S. H. Saker (2012)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

For a second order differential equation with a damping term, we establish some new inequalities of Lyapunov type. These inequalities give implicit lower bounds on the distance between zeros of a nontrivial solution and also lower bounds for the spacing between zeros of a solution and/or its derivative. We also obtain a lower bound for the first eigenvalue of a boundary value problem. The main results are proved by applying the Hölder inequality and some generalizations of Opial and Wirtinger type...

Mathematical analysis of the optimizing acquisition and retention over time problem

Adi Ditkowski (2009)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

While making informed decisions regarding investments in customer retention and acquisition becomes a pressing managerial issue, formal models and analysis, which may provide insight into this topic, are still scarce. In this study we examine two dynamic models for optimal acquisition and retention models of a monopoly, the total cost and the cost per customer models. These models are analytically analyzed using classical, direct, methods and asymptotic expansions (for the total cost model). In...

Methods of analysis of the condition for correct solvability in L p ( ) of general Sturm-Liouville equations

Nina A. Chernyavskaya, Leonid A. Shuster (2014)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We consider the equation - ( r ( x ) y ' ( x ) ) ' + q ( x ) y ( x ) = f ( x ) , x ( * ) where f L p ( ) , p ( 1 , ) and r > 0 , q 0 , 1 r L 1 loc ( ) , q L 1 loc ( ) , lim | d | x - d x d t r ( t ) · x - d x q ( t ) d t = . In an earlier paper, we obtained a criterion for correct solvability of ( * ) in L p ( ) , p ( 1 , ) ...
