Two point boundary value problems for second order ordinary differential equations across many resonant points (Q1312725): Difference between revisions

This article deals with the existence and uniqueness of solution to the two point boundary value problem across many resonant points: \(y''+f(x,y)=0\), \(y(0)=a\), \(y(1)=b\), mainly under the following conditions: (1) \(f\) and \(f_ y\) are continuous on \([0,1] \times \mathbb{R}\); (2) \(A \leq f_ y(x,y) \leq \beta(x) \leq B\), \(\int^ 1_ 0 \beta (x)dx<B \alpha_ 1+(1-\alpha_ 1)A\), where \(A\), \(B>0\) with \(0<A<k^ 2 \pi^ 2<B\), \(k\) is the minimal positive integer suiting the inequality and \(\alpha_ 1\) is the minimal positive root of \(\sqrt A \text{ctg} (\sqrt A(1-\alpha)/(2k))=\sqrt B \text{tg} (\sqrt B \alpha/(2k))\). The results are proved by the optimal control theory method.
