We study the existence of positive solutions of second order nonlinear separated boundary value problems of superlinear as well as sublinear type without imposing monotonicity restrictions on the problem. The type of problem investigated cannot be analyzed using the linearization about the trivial solution because either it does not exist (the sublinear case) or is trivial (the superlinear case). The results follow from a known fixed point theorem by noticing that the concavity of the solutions provides an important condition for the applicability of the fixed point result.

This paper deals with existence of positive solutions of nonlinear elliptic singular boundary value problems in a ball. It is shown that results of Grandall et al. [1] and [2] follow as special cases of our results proved in this article.

In this paper we use uniform cubic spline polynomials to derive some new consistency relations. These relations are then used to develop a numerical method for computing smooth approxi-mations to the solution and its first second as well as third derivatives for a second order boundary value problem. The proesent method out-performs other collocations finite-difference and splines methods of the same order. numerical illustratiosn are provided to demonstrate the practical use of our method.

Motivated by [Linear Algebra and its Appl. 420(2007), 218-227] and [Linear Algebra and its Appl. 425(2007), 171-183], we, in this paper, study the solvability of periodic boundary value problems of higher order nonlinear functional difference equations with p-Laplacian. Sufficient conditions for the existence of at least one solution of this problem are established.

In this paper, we give some results on the stability of f-harmonic maps with potential from or into spheres and any Riemannian manifold. We study the constant boundary-value problems of such maps defined on a specific Cartan-Hadamard manifolds, and obtain a Liouville-type theorem. It can also be applied to the static Landau-Lifshitz equations. We also prove a Liouville theorem for f-harmonic maps with finite f-energy or slowly divergent f-energy.

We study the existence and uniqueness of solutions for a class of boundary value problems of nonlinear fractional order differential equations involving the Caputo fractional derivative by employing the Banach's contraction principle and the Schauder's fixed point theorem. In addition, an example is given to demonstrate the application of our main results.

In this paper, we consider a boundary value problem for a sixth order difference equation. We prove the monotone behavior of the eigenvalue of the problem as the coefficients in the difference equation change values and the existence of a positive solution for a class of problems.

The method of upper and lower solutions and the generalized quasilinearization technique is developed for the existence and approximation of solutions to boundary value problems for higher order fractional differential equations of the type $^c\mathcal{D}^qu(t)+f(t,u(t))=0$, $t{\in}(0,1),q{\in}(n-1,n],n{\geq}2$ $u^{\prime}(0)=0,u^{\prime\prime}(0)=0,{\ldots},u^{n-1}(0)=0,u(1)={\xi}u({\eta})$, where ${\xi},{\eta}{\in}(0,1)$, the nonlinear function f is assumed to be continuous and $^c\mathcal{D}^q$ is the fractional derivative in the sense of Caputo. Existence of solution is established via the upper and lower solutions method and approximation of solutions uses the generalized quasilinearization technique.
