We establish asymptotic formulas for all the eigenvalues of the linearization problem of the Neumann problem for the scalar field equation in a finite interval
In the previous paper of the third author [T. Wakasa and S. Yotsutani, J. Differ. Equ. 258 (2015), 3960–4006] asymptotic formulas for the Allen–Cahn case $\varepsilon ^2u_{xx}+u-u^3=0$ were established. In this paper, we apply the method developed in the previous paper to our case. We show that all the eigenvalues can be classified into three categories, i.e., near $-3$ eigenvalues, near $0$ eigenvalues and the other eigenvalues. We see that the number of the near $-3$ eigenvalues (resp. the near $0$ eigenvalues) is equal to the number of the interior and boundary peaks (resp. the interior peaks) of a solution for the nonlinear problem. The main technical tools are various asymptotic formulas for complete elliptic integrals.
In this paper, we consider an eigenvalue problem for ordinary differential equations of fourth order with a spectral parameter in the boundary conditions. The location of eigenvalues on real axis, the structure of root subspaces and the oscillation properties of eigenfunctions of this problem are investigated, and asymptotic formulas for the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions are found. Next, by the use of these properties, we establish sufficient conditions for subsystems of root functions of the considered problem to form a basis in the space $L_p,1 < p < \infty$.
In the framework of fixed point theory, many generalizations of the classical results due to Krasnosel'skii are known. One of these extensions consists in relaxing the conditions imposed on the mapping, working with k-set contractions instead of continuous and compact maps. The aim of this work if to study in detail some fixed point results of this type, and obtain a certain generalization by using star convex sets.
We consider boundary-value problems for differential equations of second order containing a Brownian motion (random perturbation) and a small parameter and prove a special existence and uniqueness theorem for random solutions. We study the asymptotic behaviour of these solutions as the small parameter goes to zero and show the stochastic averaging theorem for such equations. We find the explicit limits for the solutions as the small parameter goes to zero.
A self-adjoint first-order system with Hermitian π-periodic potential Q(z), integrable on compact sets, is considered. It is shown that all zeros of are double zeros if and only if this self-adjoint system is unitarily equivalent to one in which Q(z) is π/2-periodic. Furthermore, the zeros of are all double zeros if and only if the associated self-adjoint system is unitarily equivalent to one in which Q(z) = σ2Q(z)σ2. Here, Δ denotes the discriminant of the system and σ0, σ2 are Pauli matrices. Finally, it is shown that all instability intervals vanish if and only if Q = rσ0 + qσ2, for some real-valued π-periodic functions r and q integrable on compact sets.
In 1961, J. Barrett showed that if the first conjugate point ${{\eta }_{1}}\left( a \right)$ exists for the differential equation ${{\left( r\left( x \right){y}'' \right)}^{\prime \prime }}=p\left( x \right)y$, where $r\left( x \right)\,>\,0$ and $p\left( x \right)\,>\,0$, then so does the first systems-conjugate point ${{\hat{\eta }}_{1}}\left( a \right)$. The aim of this note is to extend this result to the general equation with middle term ${{\left( q\left( x \right){y}' \right)}^{\prime }}$ without further restriction on $q\left( x \right)$, other than continuity.
In this paper, we are going to investigate the canonical property of solutions of systems of differential equations having a singularity and turning point of even order. First, by a replacement, we transform the system to the Sturm–Liouville equation with turning point. Using of the asymptotic estimates provided by Eberhard, Freiling, and Schneider for a special fundamental system of solutions of the Sturm–Liouville equation, we study the infinite product representation of solutions of the systems. Then we transform the Sturm–Liouville equation with turning point to the equation with singularity, then we study the asymptotic behavior of its solutions. Such representations are relevant to the inverse spectral problem.
