Multiple positive solutions for a class of nonlinear four-point boundary value problem with p-Laplacian

This paper deals with the existence of multiple positive solutions for a class of nonlinear singular four-point boundary value problem with p-Laplacian：{（φ（u′））′＋a（t）f（u（t））=0, 0〈t〈1, αφ（u（0））-βφ（u′（ξ））=0,γφ（u（1））＋δφ（u′（η））0,where φ（x） = ｜x｜^p-2x,p 〉 1, a（t） may be singular at t = 0 and/or t = 1. By applying Leggett-Williams fixed point theorem and Schauder fixed point theorem, the sufficient conditions for the existence of multiple （at least three） positive solutions to the above four-point boundary value problem are provided. An example to illustrate the importance of the results obtained is also given.

MULTIPLE POSITIVE SOLUTIONS FOR A CLASS OF SEMIPOSITONE NEUMANN PROBLEMSWITH SINGULARφ-LAPLACIAN

We study the existence of multiple positive solutions for a Neumann problem with singular φ-Laplacian{-(φ（u′）)′= λf（u）, x ∈（0, 1）,u′（0） = 0 = u′（1）,where λ is a positive parameter, φ（s） =s/（1-s;）;, f ∈ C;（[0, ∞）, R), f′（u） > 0 for u > 0, and for some 0 < β < θ such that f（u） < 0 for u ∈ [0, β)（semipositone） and f（u） > 0 for u > β.Under some suitable assumptions, we obtain the existence of multiple positive solutions of the above problem by using the quadrature technique. Further, if f ∈ C;（[0, β） ∪（β, ∞）, R),f′′（u） ≥ 0 for u ∈ [0, β) and f′′（u） ≤ 0 for u ∈（β, ∞）, then there exist exactly 2 n + 1 positive solutions for some interval of λ, which is dependent on n and θ. Moreover, We also give some examples to apply our results.

Multiple optimal solutions to a sort of nonlinear optimization problem

The optimization problem is considered in which the objective function is pseudolinear（both pseudoconvex and pseudoconcave） and the constraints are linear. The general expression for the optimal solutions to the problem is derived with the representation theorem of polyhedral sets, and the uniqueness condition of the optimal solution and the computational procedures to determine all optimal solutions （if the uniqueness condition is not satisfied ） are provided. Finally, an illustrative example is also given.

MULTIPLE RECIPROCITY METHOD WITH TWO SERIES OF SEQUENCES OF HIGH-ORDER FUNDAMENTAL SOLUTION FOR THIN PLATE BENDING

The boundary value problem of plate bending problem on two_parameter foundation was discussed.Using two series of the high_order fundamental solution sequences, namely, the fundamental solution sequences for the multi_harmonic operator and Laplace operator, applying the multiple reciprocity method(MRM), the MRM boundary integral equation for plate bending problem was constructed. It proves that the boundary integral equation derived from MRM is essentially identical to the conventional boundary integral equation. Hence the convergence analysis of MRM for plate bending problem can be obtained by the error estimation for the conventional boundary integral equation. In addition, this method can extend to the case of more series of the high_order fundamental solution sequences.
