Mathematics in Science and Engineering, Volume 48: Comparison and Oscillation Theory of Linear Differential Equations deals primarily with the zeros of solutions of linear differential equations. This volume contains five chapters. Chapter 1 focuses on comparison theorems for second order equations, while Chapter 2 treats oscillation and nonoscillation theorems for second order equations. Separation, comparison, and oscillation theorems for fourth order equations are covered in Chapter 3. In Chapter 4, ordinary equations and systems of differential equations are reviewed. The last chapter discusses the result of the first analog of a Sturm-type comparison theorem for an elliptic partial differential equation. This publication is intended for college seniors or beginning graduate students who are well-acquainted with advanced calculus, complex analysis, linear algebra, and linear differential equations.
The year 1986 marked the sesquicentennial of the publication in 1836 of J Sturm's memoir on boundary value problems for second order equations. In July 1986, the Canadian Mathematical Society sponsored the International Conference on Oscillation, Bifurcation and Chaos. This volume contains the proceedings of this conference.
Oscillation theory was born with Sturm's work in 1836. It has been flourishing for the past fifty years. Nowadays it is a full, self-contained discipline, turning more towards nonlinear and functional differential equations. Oscillation theory flows along two main streams. The first aims to study prop erties which are common to all linear differential equations. The other restricts its area of interest to certain families of equations and studies in maximal details phenomena which characterize only those equations. Among them we find third and fourth order equations, self adjoint equations, etc. Our work belongs to the second type and considers two term linear equations modeled after y(n) + p(x)y = O. More generally, we investigate LnY + p(x)y = 0, where Ln is a disconjugate operator and p(x) has a fixed sign. These equations enjoy a very rich structure and are the natural generalization of the Sturm-Liouville operator. Results about such equations are distributed over hundreds of research papers, many of them are reinvented again and again and the same phenomenon is frequently discussed from various points of view and different definitions of the authors. Our aim is to introduce an order into this plenty and arrange it in a unified and self contained way. The results are readapted and presented in a unified approach. In many cases completely new proofs are given and in no case is the original proof copied verbatim. Many new results are included.
This book summarizes the qualitative theory of differential equations with or without delays, collecting recent oscillation studies important to applications and further developments in mathematics, physics, engineering, and biology. The authors address oscillatory and nonoscillatory properties of first-order delay and neutral delay differential eq
This monograph is devoted to covering the main results in the qualitative theory of symplectic difference systems, including linear Hamiltonian difference systems and Sturm-Liouville difference equations, with the emphasis on the oscillation and spectral theory. As a pioneer monograph in this field it contains nowadays standard theory of symplectic systems, as well as the most current results in this field, which are based on the recently developed central object - the comparative index. The book contains numerous results and citations, which were till now scattered only in journal papers. The book also provides new applications of the theory of matrices in this field, in particular of the Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse matrices, orthogonal projectors, and symplectic matrix factorizations. Thus it brings this topic to the attention of researchers and students in pure as well as applied mathematics.
This work presents the proceedings from the International Conference on Differential Equations and Control Theory, held recently in Wuhan, China. It provides an overview of current developments in a range of topics including dynamical systems, optimal control theory, stochastic control, chaos, fractals, wavelets and ordinary, partial, functional and stochastic differential equations.
Ordinary Differential Equations: 1971 NRL–MRC Conference provides information pertinent to the fundamental aspects of ordinary differential equations. This book covers a variety of topics, including geometric and qualitative theory, analytic theory, functional differential equation, dynamical systems, and algebraic theory. Organized into two parts encompassing 51 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the results on the existence of periodic solutions of a differential equation. This text then describes an index for the isolated invariant sets of a flow on a compact metric space, which contains exactly the information of the Morse index. Other chapters consider the studies of certain classes of equations that can be interpreted as models of biological or economic processes. This book discusses as well the absolute stability of some classes of integro-differential systems. The final chapter deals with first-order differential equations. This book is a valuable resource for mathematicians, graduate students, and research workers.
