On a new reliable algorithm.
The periodic boundary value problem u''(t) = f(t,u(t),u'(t)) with u(0) = u(2π) and u'(0) = u'(2π) is studied using the generalized method of upper and lower solutions, where f is a Carathéodory function satisfying a Nagumo condition. The existence of solutions is obtained under suitable conditions on f. The results improve and generalize the work of M.-X. Wang et al. [5].
In this paper we will study some asymptotic properties of a nonlinear third order differential equation viewed as a perturbation of a simpler nonlinear equation investigated recently by the authors in [4].
We give a new proof of Jouanolou’s theorem about non-existence of algebraic solutions to the system . We also present some generalizations of the results of Darboux and Jouanolou about algebraic Pfaff forms with algebraic solutions.
