具有Sturm-Liouville型多点边界条件的线性和非线性二阶问题

Linear and nonlinear, second-order problems with Sturm-Liouville-type, multi-point boundary conditions

Bryan P. Rynne

摘要:

考虑非线性方程$$-u'' = f(u) + h , \quad \text{on} \quad (-1,1),$$,其中$f : {\mathbb R} \to {\mathbb R}$和$h : [-1,1] \to {\mathbb R}$是连续的,以及一般的Sturm-Liouville型,在$\pm 1$上的多点边界条件.我们将得到这个边值问题在一定的“非共振”条件下的解的存在性,以及Rabinowitz型全局分歧的结果,从而产生问题的节点解。这些结果依赖于由方程$$-u'' = λu, \quad \text{on} \quad (-1,1),$$和多点边界条件组成的本征值问题的谱性质。在以前的文件中,它表明,在某些“最佳”条件下,这个本征值问题的基本谱性质是类似的标准Sturm-Liouville问题与单点边界条件。特别地,对于每个整数$k \geq 0$,存在唯一的简单本征值$λ_k$,其本征函数的“振荡计数”等于$k$,其中“振荡计数”是根据复杂的普吕弗角构造来定义的。不幸的是,似乎很难将Prüfer角构造应用于非线性问题。因此,在本文中,我们使用替代的,非最优的,振荡计数方法,以获得所需的线性问题的谱特性,然后将这些应用到非线性问题,以产生上述结果。

英文摘要:

We consider the nonlinear equation $$-u'' = f(u) + h , \quad \text{on} \quad (-1,1),$$ where $f : {\mathbb R} \to {\mathbb R}$ and $h : [-1,1] \to {\mathbb R}$ are continuous, together with general Sturm-Liouville type, multi-point boundary conditions at $\pm 1$. We will obtain existence of solutions of this boundary value problem under certain `nonresonance' conditions, and also Rabinowitz-type global bifurcation results, which yield nodal solutions of the problem. These results rely on the spectral properties of the eigenvalue problem consisting of the equation $$-u'' = λu, \quad \text{on} \quad (-1,1),$$ together with the multi-point boundary conditions. In a previous paper it was shown that, under certain `optimal' conditions, the basic spectral properties of this eigenvalue problem are similar to those of the standard Sturm-Liouville problem with single-point boundary conditions. In particular, for each integer $k \geq 0$ there exists a unique, simple eigenvalue $λ_k$, whose eigenfunctions have `oscillation count' equal to $k$, where the `oscillation count' was defined in terms of a complicated Prüfer angle construction. Unfortunately, it seems to be difficult to apply the Prüfer angle construction to the nonlinear problem. Accordingly, in this paper we use alternative, non-optimal, oscillation counting methods to obtain the required spectral properties of the linear problem, and these are then applied to the nonlinear problem to yield the results mentioned above.
