Structure of eigenvalues of multi-point boundary value problems.
The class of Sturm-Liouville systems is defined. It appears to be a subclass of Riesz-spectral systems, since it is shown that the negative of a Sturm-Liouville operator is a Riesz-spectral operator on L^2(a,b) and the infinitesimal generator of a C_0-semigroup of bounded linear operators.
We consider a Sturm-Liouville operator with boundary conditions rationally dependent on the eigenparameter. We study the basis property in of the system of eigenfunctions corresponding to this operator. We determine the explicit form of the biorthogonal system. Using this we establish a theorem on the minimality of the part of the system of eigenfunctions. For the basisness in L₂ we prove that the system of eigenfunctions is quadratically close to trigonometric systems. For the basisness in ...
Let be a -contraction on a Banach space and let be an almost -contraction, i.e. sum of an -contraction with a continuous, bounded function which is less than in norm. According to the contraction principle, there is a unique element in for which If moreover there exists in with , then we will give estimates for Finally, we establish some inequalities related to the Cauchy problem.
We consider a boundary value problem for a differential equation with deviating arguments and p-Laplacian: , x’(t), x’(τ(t))) = 0, t ∈ [0,1]; t ≤ 0; , t ≥ 1. An existence result is obtained with the help of the Leray-Schauder degree theory, with no restriction on the damping forces d/dt grad F(x).
