Continuous dependence and differentiation of solutions of finite difference equations.
Using Fan’s Min-Max Theorem we investigate existence of solutions and their dependence on parameters for some second order discrete boundary value problem. The approach is based on variational methods and solutions are obtained as saddle points to the relevant Euler action functional.
We investigate the criticality of the one term -order difference operators . We explicitly determine the recessive and the dominant system of solutions of the equation . Using their structure we prove a criticality criterion.
