      [For the entire collection see Zbl 0713.00009.] The author considers the construction of the solution of the nonlinear boundary value problem \(u''(x)=f(x,u(x)) (0\leq x\leq \pi), u(0)=u(\pi)=0\), as a minimum of the action integral \(J(u)=\int^ \pi_ 0({1\over 2}u'(x)^ 2+F(x,u(x)))dx\), where \(F(x,u)=\int^ u_ 0f(x,v)dv\). The approach is through the direct method of the calculus of variations that is, \(u(x)\) is obtained as the limit of a suitable minimizing sequence. The main results generalize theorems of Lichtenstein, Hammerstein and Cinquini.
