Topological and Variational Methods with Applications to Nonlinear Boundary Value Problems
Author: Dumitru Motreanu
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461493234
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 465
Book Description
This book focuses on nonlinear boundary value problems and the aspects of nonlinear analysis which are necessary to their study. The authors first give a comprehensive introduction to the many different classical methods from nonlinear analysis, variational principles, and Morse theory. They then provide a rigorous and detailed treatment of the relevant areas of nonlinear analysis with new applications to nonlinear boundary value problems for both ordinary and partial differential equations. Recent results on the existence and multiplicity of critical points for both smooth and nonsmooth functional, developments on the degree theory of monotone type operators, nonlinear maximum and comparison principles for p-Laplacian type operators, and new developments on nonlinear Neumann problems involving non-homogeneous differential operators appear for the first time in book form. The presentation is systematic, and an extensive bibliography and a remarks section at the end of each chapter highlight the text. This work will serve as an invaluable reference for researchers working in nonlinear analysis and partial differential equations as well as a useful tool for all those interested in the topics presented.

Topological Methods in the Study of Boundary Value Problems
Author: Pablo Amster
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461488931
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
This textbook is devoted to the study of some simple but representative nonlinear boundary value problems by topological methods. The approach is elementary, with only a few model ordinary differential equations and applications, chosen in such a way that the student may avoid most of the technical difficulties and focus on the application of topological methods. Only basic knowledge of general analysis is needed, making the book understandable to non-specialists. The main topics in the study of boundary value problems are present in this text, so readers with some experience in functional analysis or differential equations may also find some elements that complement and enrich their tools for solving nonlinear problems. In comparison with other texts in the field, this one has the advantage of a concise and informal style, thus allowing graduate and undergraduate students to enjoy some of the beauties of this interesting branch of mathematics. Exercises and examples are included throughout the book, providing motivation for the reader.

Numerical-analytic Methods in the Theory of Boundary-value Problems
Author: Nikola? Iosifovich Ronto
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9789810236762
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 470
Book Description
This book contains the main results of the authors' investigations on the development and application of numerical-analytic methods for ordinary nonlinear boundary value problems (BVPs). The methods under consideration provide an opportunity to solve the two important problems of the BVP theory ? namely, to establish existence theorems and to build approximation solutions. They can be used to investigate a wide variety of BVPs.The Appendix, written in collaboration with S I Trofimchuk, discusses the connection of the new method with the classical Cesari, Cesari-Hale and Lyapunov-Schmidt methods.

Two-Point Boundary Value Problems: Lower and Upper Solutions
Author: C. De Coster
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080462472
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 502
Book Description
This book introduces the method of lower and upper solutions for ordinary differential equations. This method is known to be both easy and powerful to solve second order boundary value problems. Besides an extensive introduction to the method, the first half of the book describes some recent and more involved results on this subject. These concern the combined use of the method with degree theory, with variational methods and positive operators. The second half of the book concerns applications. This part exemplifies the method and provides the reader with a fairly large introduction to the problematic of boundary value problems. Although the book concerns mainly ordinary differential equations, some attention is given to other settings such as partial differential equations or functional differential equations. A detailed history of the problem is described in the introduction.· Presents the fundamental features of the method· Construction of lower and upper solutions in problems· Working applications and illustrated theorems by examples· Description of the history of the method and Bibliographical notes

Existence Theory for Nonlinear Ordinary Differential Equations
Author: Donal O'Regan
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401715173
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 207
Book Description
We begin our applications of fixed point methods with existence of solutions to certain first order initial initial value problems. This problem is relatively easy to treat, illustrates important methods, and in the end will carry us a good deal further than may first meet the eye. Thus, we seek solutions to Y'. = I(t,y) (1. 1 ) { yeO) = r n where I: I X R n ---+ R and I = [0, b]. We shall seek solutions that are de fined either locally or globally on I, according to the assumptions imposed on I. Notice that (1. 1) is a system of first order equations because I takes its values in Rn. In section 3. 2 we will first establish some basic existence theorems which guarantee that a solution to (1. 1) exists for t > 0 and near zero. Familiar examples show that the interval of existence can be arbi trarily short, depending on the initial value r and the nonlinear behaviour of I. As a result we will also examine in section 3. 2 the dependence of the interval of existence on I and r. We mention in passing that, in the results which follow, the interval I can be replaced by any bounded interval and the initial value can be specified at any point in I. The reasoning needed to cover this slightly more general situation requires minor modifications on the arguments given here.
