Fully Nonlinear Boundary Value Problems With Impulse, Paul Eloe, Muhammad Usman Mar 2015

Fully Nonlinear Boundary Value Problems With Impulse, Paul Eloe, Muhammad Usman

Paul W. Eloe

An impulsive boundary value problem with nonlinear boundary conditions for a second order ordinary differential equation is studied. In particular, sufficient conditions are provided so that a compression- expansion cone theoretic fixed point theorem can be applied to imply the existence of positive solutions. The nonlinear forcing term is assumed to satisfy usual sublinear or superlinear growth as t → ∞ or t → 0 +. The nonlinear impulse terms and the nonlinear boundary terms are assumed to satisfy the analogous asymptotic behavior.
