A characterization related to a two-point boundary value problem

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In this short note, we establish the following result: Let f:[0,+infty[o[0,+infty[, alpha:[0,1]o]0,+infty[ be two continuous functions, with f(0)=0. Assume that, for some a>0, the function xioint0xif(t)dtoverxi2 is non-increasing in ]0,a]. Then, the following assertions are equivalent: (i) for each b>0, the function xioint0xif(t)dtoverxi2 is not constant in ]0,b] ; (ii) for each r>0, there exists an open interval Isubseteq]0,+infty[ such that, for every lambdainI, the problem cases {-u=lambdaalpha(t)f(u) & in [0,1]cr & cr u>0 & in ]0,1[cr & cr u(0)=u(1)=0cr} has a solution u satisfying int_0^1|u'(t)|^2dt<r .
