Singular Boundary Value Problems for Ordinary Differential Equations

Singular Higher Order Boundary Value Problems for Ordinary Differential Equations

This paper is somewhat of an extension of the recent work done by Kunkel [6]. Kunkel looked at an extension of Rachu̇nková and Rachu̇nek’s work where they studied a second order singular boundary value problem for the discrete p-Laplacian, φp(x) = |x|x [7]. Kunkel’s results extend theirs to the second order differential case, but only for p = 2, i.e. φ2(x) = x. In this paper, we extend Kunkel’s w...

Numerical Ordinary Differential Equations - Boundary Value Problems

Consider a second-order linear 2-point boundary value problem (BVP) −z + p(x)z + q(x)z = r(x) (10.1) z(a) = α (10.2) z(b) = β (10.3) where p(x), q(x) and r(x) are given. By defining y(x) := [z(x), z (x)] T , the problem can be changed into a first-order differential system y = 0 1 q(x) p(x) y + 0 −r(x) (10.4) y 1 (a) − α = 0 (10.5) y 2 (b) − β = 0. (10.6) Remark. In general, a linear 2-point BV...

Boundary value problems for higher order ordinary differential equations

Let f : [a, b] × R n+1 → R be a Carathéodory's function. Let {t h }, with t h ∈ [a, b], and {x h } be two real sequences. In this paper, the family of boundary value problems´x is considered. It is proved that these boundary value problems admit at least a solution for each k ≥ ν, where ν ≥ n + 1 is a suitable integer. Some particular cases, obtained by specializing the sequence {t h }, are poi...
