Smooth solution of one boundary-value problem (Q4270845)

This paper deals with a boundary value periodic problem of the following form \[ u_{tt}-u_{xx}=F[u,u_{t}], \tag{1} \] \[ u(x,0)=u(x,\pi)=0,\;x\in{\mathbb{R}}, \tag{2} \] \[ u(x+w,t)=u(x,t),\;x\in{\mathbb{R}}, \tag{3} \] where \(F[u,u_{t}]\) is a nonlinear operator mapping a smooth function into continuous scalar one. First the authors prove a theorem on existence and uniqueness of a smooth solution to a linear problem of the form (1)--(3), when \(F[u,u_{t}]=g(x,t)\) is a continuous function satisfying an additional property of being odd and conditions of periodicity. Then they formulate a theorem on sufficient conditions of existence and uniqueness of a smooth solution to the nonlinear problem (1)--(3).
