Synopsis

We consider boundary value problems for second order differential systems of the form (1)x” = A(t)x′ + f(t, x) and (2) x” = A(t)x′ + f(t, x) + q(t, x). By assuming the existence of a solution to (1) with a given region in (t, x) space, we derive conditions under which there exists a solution to (2) which stays in a certain neighbourhood of and satisfies given boundary conditions.
