A Generalized Sturm Theory for Indefinite Elliptic Systems

The Nehari Manifold for a Class of Indefinite Weight Semilinear Elliptic Equations

On a generalized Sturm theorem

Sturm oscillation theorem for second order differential equations was generalized to systems and higher order equations with positive leading coefficient by several authors. What we propose here is a Sturm theorem for indefinite systems with Dirichlet boundary conditions of the form p2m du dx + p2m−2(x) du dx + · · ·+ p1(x) du dx + p0(x)u = 0, where pi is a smooth path of matrices on the comple...

New conditions on ground state solutions for Hamiltonian elliptic systems with gradient terms

This paper is concerned with the following elliptic system:$$ left{ begin{array}{ll} -triangle u + b(x)nabla u + V(x)u=g(x, v), -triangle v - b(x)nabla v + V(x)v=f(x, u), end{array} right. $$ for $x in {R}^{N}$, where $V $, $b$ and $W$ are 1-periodic in $x$, and $f(x,t)$, $g(x,t)$ are super-quadratic. In this paper, we give a new technique to show the boundedness of Cerami sequences and estab...

Infinite product representation of solution of indefinite SturmLiouville problem

In this paper, we investigate infinite product representation of the solution of a Sturm- Liouville equation with an indefinite weight function which has two zeros and/or singularities in a finite interval. First, by using of the asymptotic estimates provided in [W. Eberhard, G. Freiling, K. Wilcken-Stoeber, Indefinite eigenvalue problems with several singular points and turning points, Math. N...

Positive solutions for nonlinear systems of third-order generalized sturm-liouville boundary value problems with $(p_1,p_2,ldots,p_n)$-laplacian

In this work, byemploying the Leggett-Williams fixed point theorem, we study theexistence of at least three positive solutions of boundary valueproblems for system of third-order ordinary differential equationswith $(p_1,p_2,ldots,p_n)$-Laplacianbegin{eqnarray*}left { begin{array}{ll} (phi_{p_i}(u_i''(t)))'  +  a_i(t) f_i(t,u_1(t), u_2(t), ldots, u_n(t)) =0 hspace{1cm} 0  leq t leq 1, alpha_i u...
