A non-resonant generalized multi-point boundary value problem of Dirichlet-Neumann type involving a \(p\)-Laplacian type operator (Q935550): Difference between revisions

The author studies the following non-resonant generalized multi-point boundary value problem: \[ (\phi(x'))'=f(t,x,x')+e, \enskip 0<t<1, \] \[ x(0)=\sum_{i=1}^{m-2}a_i x(\xi_i), \enskip \theta(x'(1))=\sum_{j=1}^{m-2}b_j \theta(x'(\tau_j)), \] where \(\phi, \theta\) are odd increasing homeomorphisms from \(\mathbb R\) onto \(\mathbb R\) satisfying \(\phi(0)=\theta(0)=0\), \(f:[0,1]\times\mathbb R\times\mathbb R\to\mathbb R\) a Carathéodory function and \(e\in L^1([0,1])\). Using topological degree arguments and a-priori estimates the author proves an existence result for the above problem.
