On the solution sets of some nonconvex hyperbolic differential inclusions
We are concerned with the solvability of the fourth-order four-point boundary value problem ⎧ , t ∈ [0,1], ⎨ u(0) = u(1) = 0, ⎩ au”(ζ₁) - bu”’(ζ₁) = 0, cu”(ζ₂) + du”’(ζ₂) = 0, where 0 ≤ ζ₁ < ζ₂ ≤ 1, f ∈ C([0,1] × [0,∞) × (-∞,0],[0,∞)). By using Guo-Krasnosel’skiĭ’s fixed point theorem on cones, some criteria are established to ensure the existence, nonexistence and multiplicity of positive solutions for this problem.
This paper is devoted to the solvability of the Lyapunov equation A*U + UA = I, where A is a given nonselfadjoint differential operator of order 2m with nonlocal boundary conditions, A* is its adjoint, I is the identity operator and U is the selfadjoint operator to be found. We assume that the spectra of A* and -A are disjoint. Under this restriction we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the Lyapunov equation in the class of bounded operators.
The aim of this note is 1. to show that some results (concerning the structure of the solution set of equations (18) and (21)) obtained by Czarnowski and Pruszko in [6] can be proved in a rather different way making use of a simle generalization of a theorem proved by Vidossich in [8]; and 2. to use a slight modification of the “main theorem” of Aronszajn from [1] applying methods analogous to the above mentioned idea of Vidossich to prove the fact that the solution set of the equation (24), (25)...
We propose a theoretical framework for solving a class of worst scenario problems. The existence of the worst scenario is proved through the convergence of a sequence of approximate worst scenarios. The main convergence theorem modifies and corrects the relevant results already published in literature. The theoretical framework is applied to a particular problem with an uncertain boundary value problem for a nonlinear ordinary differential equation with an uncertain coefficient.
We study the Ambrosetti–Prodi and Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz problems.We prove for the first one the existence of a continuum of solutions with shape of a reflected (-shape). Next, we show that there is a relationship between these two problems.
The existence of optimal control for nonlinear delay systems having an implicit derivative with quadratic performance criteria is proved. The results are established by an iterative technique and using the Darbo fixed point theorem.
