Review text

The paper studies the solvability of boundary value problems for scalar nonlinear ODEs \[ x^{(m)}+ a_{m- 1}(t)x^{(m- 1)}+ a_{m- 2}(t) x^{(m-2)}= f(t,x,\dots, x^{(m- 1)}),\quad t\in [a,b] \] under the boundary conditions \(B_k(x^{(k)}(\cdot),x(\cdot))= 0\), \(k=0,\dots,m- 1\), defined by continuous nonlinear functionals \(B_k: C\times C\to\mathbb{R}\), where the functions \(a_{m- 1}(t)\) and \(a_{m- 2}(t)\) belong to \(L_1\), \(f: [a,b]\times\mathbb{R}^m\to \mathbb{R}\) satisfies the Carathéodory conditions, and \(x:[a, b]\to\mathbb{R}\). For the case of monotone mappings \(B_k\), the author proves two theorems on sufficiency for the existence of a solution \(x(t)\in C^{m-1}\) with absolutely continuous derivative \(x^{(m- 1)}(\cdot)\). The theorems' conditions imposed on the linear part of the differential equation are unimproved in some sense.
