On a Class of Nonlinear Second-Order Differential Equations

ON THE PERIODIC SOLUTIONS OF A CLASS OF nTH ORDER NONLINEAR DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS *

The nth order differential equation x + c (t )x + ƒ( t,x) = e(t),n>3 is considered. Using the Leray-Schauder principle, it is shown that under certain conditions on the functions involved, this equation possesses a periodic solution.

On the stability of linear differential equations of second order

The aim of this paper is to investigate the Hyers-Ulam stability of the  linear differential equation$$y''(x)+alpha y'(x)+beta y(x)=f(x)$$in general case, where $yin C^2[a,b],$  $fin C[a,b]$ and $-infty

On the Existence of Positive Solutions of a Class of Second Order Nonlinear Differential Equations

We present some results on the existence of bounded positive solutions to a class of nonlinear second order ordinary diferential equations by using the Schauder-Tikhonov fixed point theorem. An application to the existence of bounded positive solutions to certain quasilinear elliptic equations in two-dimensional exterior domains is also given.

Second-order Differential Equations and Nonlinear Connections

The main purposes of this article are to extend our previous results on homogeneous sprays [15] to arbitrary secondorder differential equations, to show that locally diffeomorphic exponential maps can be defined for any of them, and to give a (possibly nonlinear) covariant derivative for any (possibly nonlinear) connection. In the process, we introduce vertically homogeneous connections. Unlike...
