On The Existence Of Multiple Periodic Solutions For The Vector P-Laplacian Via Critical Point Theory, Haishen Lu, Donal O'Regan, Ravi P. Agarwal

Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications

We study the vector p-Laplacian (∗){−(|u′|p−2u′)′=∇F(t,u)a.e.t∈[0,T],u(0)=u(T),u′(0)=u′(T),1


On Some Inequalities For Beta And Gamma Functions Via Some Classical Inequalities, Ravi P. Agarwal, Neven Elezović, Josip Pecaric Oct 2005

On Some Inequalities For Beta And Gamma Functions Via Some Classical Inequalities, Ravi P. Agarwal, Neven Elezović, Josip Pecaric

Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications

We improve several results recently established by Dragomir et al. in (2000) for the Gamma and Beta functions. All we need is some clever applications of classical inequalities. Copyright © 2005 Hindawi Publishing Corporation.


Singular Positone And Semipositone Boundary Value Problems Of Second Order Delay Differential Equations, Daqing Jiang, Xiaojie Xu, Donal O'Regan, Ravi P. Agarwal Jun 2005

Singular Positone And Semipositone Boundary Value Problems Of Second Order Delay Differential Equations, Daqing Jiang, Xiaojie Xu, Donal O'Regan, Ravi P. Agarwal

Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications

In this paper we present some new existence results for singular positone and semipositone boundary value problems of second order delay differential equations. Throughout our nonlinearity may be singular in its dependent variable.


General Existence Principles For Nonlocal Boundary Value Problems With Ø-Laplacian And Their Applications, Ravi P. Agarwal, Donal O'Regan, Svatoslav Staněk May 2005

General Existence Principles For Nonlocal Boundary Value Problems With Ø-Laplacian And Their Applications, Ravi P. Agarwal, Donal O'Regan, Svatoslav Staněk

Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications

The paper presents general existence principles which can be used for a large class of nonlocal boundary value problems of the form (ø(x′)) ′ = f1(t,x,x′) + f2(t,x,x′)F 1X + f3(t,x,x′)f2x,α(x) = 0, β(x) = 0, where fj satisfy local Carathéodory conditions on some [0,T] × Dj ⊂ ℝ, fj are either regular or have singularities in their phase variables (j = 1,2,3), f i, : C1[0.T] → C0[0,T] (i = 1,2), and α,β : C1[0.T] → ℝ are continuous. The proofs are based on the Leray-Schauder degree theory and use regularization and sequential techniques. Applications of general existence principles …

Set Differential Equations With Causal Operators, Zahia Drici

Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications

We obtain some basic results on existence, uniqueness, and continuous dependence of solutions with respect to initial values for set differential equations with causal operators.


Multidimensional Kolmogorov-Petrovsky Test For The Boundary Regularity And Irregularity Of Solutions To The Heat Equation, Ugur G. Abdulla Jan 2005

Multidimensional Kolmogorov-Petrovsky Test For The Boundary Regularity And Irregularity Of Solutions To The Heat Equation, Ugur G. Abdulla

Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications

This paper establishes necessary and sufficient condition for the regularity of a characteristic top boundary point of an arbitrary open subset of ( ) for the diffusion (or heat) equation. The result implies asymptotic probability law for the standard -dimensional Brownian motion.


Fixed Point Theory For Mönch-Type Maps Defined On Closed Subsets Of Fréchet Spaces: The Projective Limit Approach, Ravi P. Agarwal, Donal O'Regan, Jewgeni H. Dshalalow Jan 2005

Fixed Point Theory For Mönch-Type Maps Defined On Closed Subsets Of Fréchet Spaces: The Projective Limit Approach, Ravi P. Agarwal, Donal O'Regan, Jewgeni H. Dshalalow

Mathematics and System Engineering Faculty Publications

New Leray-Schauder alternatives are presented for Mönch-type maps defined between Fréchet spaces. The proof relies on viewing a Fréchet space as the projective limit of a sequence of Banach spaces.
