Existence and positivity of solutions for a nonlinear periodic differential equation

Ernest Yankson (2012)

Archivum Mathematicum

We study the existence and positivity of solutions of a highly nonlinear periodic differential equation. In the process we convert the differential equation into an equivalent integral equation after which appropriate mappings are constructed. We then employ a modification of Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem introduced by T. A. Burton ([4], Theorem 3) to show the existence and positivity of solutions of the equation.

Existence and sharp asymptotic behavior of positive decreasing solutions of a class [4pt] of differential systems with power-type nonlinearities

Jaroslav Jaroš, Kusano Takaŝi (2014)

Archivum Mathematicum

The system of nonlinear differential equations x ' + p 1 ( t ) x α 1 + q 1 ( t ) y β 1 = 0 , y ' + p 2 ( t ) x α 2 + q 2 ( t ) y β 2 = 0 , A is under consideration, where α i and β i are positive constants and p i ( t ) and q i ( t ) are positive continuous functions on [ a , ) . There are three types of different asymptotic behavior at infinity of positive solutions ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) ) of (). The aim of this paper is to establish criteria for the existence of solutions of these three types by means of fixed point techniques. Special emphasis is placed on those solutions with both components decreasing to zero as t , which can be...

Existence and uniqueness of periodic solutions for odd-order ordinary differential equations

Yongxiang Li, He Yang (2011)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

The paper deals with the existence and uniqueness of 2π-periodic solutions for the odd-order ordinary differential equation u ( 2 n + 1 ) = f ( t , u , u ' , . . . , u ( 2 n ) ) , where f : × 2 n + 1 is continuous and 2π-periodic with respect to t. Some new conditions on the nonlinearity f ( t , x , x , . . . , x 2 n ) to guarantee the existence and uniqueness are presented. These conditions extend and improve the ones presented by Cong [Appl. Math. Lett. 17 (2004), 727-732].
