Nonlinearly loaded boundary value problems for linear ordinary differential equations (Q2332098)

The paper is devoted to nonlocal boundary value problems for a system of nonlinearly loaded ordinary differential equations. Loaded differential equations, also known as differential boundary equations, appear in almost all branches of science, engineering, and technology, and as a consequence, have been intensively investigated. Loaded equations contain terms with functions of the values of the solution at the loading points. The author studies the system of linear differential equations with loadings \[ \dot{x}(t)=A(t)x(t)+\sum_{i=1}^{l}B^{i}(t)g_{i}(x(\overline{t}_{i}))+f(t),\ \ t\in [t_{0},t_{f}]\tag{1} \] subject to the boundary conditions \[ \sum_{i=1}^{l}\left[\alpha^{1}_{i}x(\overline{t}_{i})+\alpha^{2}_{i}g_{i}(x(\overline{t}_{i}))\right]=\alpha^{0}.\tag{2} \] Conditions for the existence and uniqueness of a solution for (1), (2) are provided. The author's approach is based on the solutions of auxiliary boundary value problems for systems of linear differential equations \[ \dot{x}(t)=A(t)x(t)+\sum_{i=1}^{l}B^{i}(t)\lambda_{i}+f(t),\ \ t\in [t_{0},t_{f}] \] with non-separated multi-point boundary conditions without loadings \[ \sum_{i=1}^{l}\left[\alpha^{1}_{i}x(\overline{t}_{i})+\alpha^{2}_{i}\lambda_{i}\right]=\alpha^{0}. \] The obtained results continue studies of the subject and maybe interesting for researchers in the field.
