AbstractLet I = [a, b] ⊆ R and let L be an nth order linear differential operator defined on Cn(I). Let 2 ≦ k ≦ n and let a ≦ x1 < x2 < … < xn = b. A method of forced mono tonicity is used to construct monotone sequences that converge to solutions of the conjugate type boundary value problem (BVP) Ly = f(x, y),y(i-1) = rij where 1 ≦i ≦ mj, 1 ≦ j ≦ k, mj = n, and f : I X R → R is continuous. A comparison theorem is employed and the method requires that the Green's function of an associated BVP satisfies certain sign conditions.

The Subject

The eigenfunctions of a boundary value problem are characterized by two quite distinct properties. They are solutions of ordinary differential equations, and they satisfy prescribed boundary conditions. It is a definite advantage to combine these two requirements into a single problem expressed by a unified formula. The use of integral equations is an example in point. The subject of this paper, namely the Schrödinger-Infeld Factorization Method, which is applicable to certain restricted. Sturm-Liouville problems, is based upon another combination of the two properties. The Factorization Method prescribes a manufacturing process.

SynopsisThe existence of solutions to equations in normed spaces is proved when the nonlinear part of the equation satisfies growth and asymptotic conditions, whether the linear part is invertible or not. For this, we use the coincidence degree theory developed by Mawhin. We apply our abstract results to boundary value problems for nonlinear vector ordinary differential equations. In particular, we consider the Picard boundary value problem at the first eigenvalue and the periodic boundary value problem at resonance. In both cases, the nonlinear term can be of superlinear type. Also, necessary and sufficient conditions of Landesman-Lazer type are obtained.

Specific Class

This article is devoted to the study of the existence of solutions as well as the existence and uniqueness of solutions to a boundary-value problem on the half-line for higher-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations. An existence result is obtained by the use of the Schauder–Tikhonov theorem. Furthermore, an existence and uniqueness criterion is established using the Banach contraction principle. These two results are applied, in particular, to the specific class of higher-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations of Emden–Fowler type and to the special case of higher-order linear ordinary differential equations, respectively. Moreover, some (general or specific) examples demonstrating the applicability of our results are given.
