We prove the multiplicity of ordered positive radial solutions for a semilinear elliptic problem defined on an exterior domain. The key argument is to prove the existence of the third solution in presence of two known solutions. For this, we obtain some partial results related to three solutions theorem for certain singular boundary value problems. Proof are mainly based on the upper and lower solutions method and degree theory.

In this paper we study the existence of multiple periodic solutions of second-order ordinary differential equations. New results of multiplicity of periodic solutions are obtained when the nonlinearity may cross multiple consecutive eigenvalues. The arguments are proceeded by a combination of variational and degree theoretic methods.

이 논문에서는 비선형 빔방정식을 이용할 수 있는 현수교방정식의 존재하는 해의 개수를 조사하였다. 외부에서 주어지는 함수가 주기함수일 경우에 나타나는 여러 가지 성질들을 조사하였으며 주어진 항들의 계수가 상수인 경우 어떤 범위에서 몇 개의 해가 존재할 수 있는지를 조사하였다. Leray-Schauder degree를 이용하여 존재할 수 있는 해의 개수를 판별하는 근거로 삼았다. 특히 일정한 항의 계수가 변수를 포함하는 경우에 나타날 수 있는 변화에 대하여 조사하였다.

In this paper, by using degree theory, we consider a kind of higher-order Li$\acute{e}$enard type $p$-Laplacian differential equation as follows $$({\phi}_p(x^{(m)}))^{(m)}+f(x)x^{\prime}+g(t,x)=e(t)$$. Some new results on the existence of anti-periodic solutions for above equation are obtained.

In this paper, we consider p-Laplace equation which models the turbulent flow in a porous medium. Using a continuation principle (cf. [R. $Man{\acute{a}}sevich$ and J. Mawhin, Periodic solutions for nonlinear systems with p-Lplacian-like operators, J. Diff. Equa. 145(1998), 367-393]), we prove the existence of solutions for p-Laplace equation subject to periodic boundary conditions, under some sign and growth conditions for f. With the help of Leray-Schauder degree theory, the multiplicity of periodic solutions for p-Laplace equation is obtained under the similar conditions above and some known results are improved.

Recently many authors [2,3,5,6] proved the existence of zeros of accretive operators and estimated the range of m-accretive operators or compact perturbations of m-accretive operators more sharply. Their results could be obtained from differential equations in Banach spaces or iteration methods or Leray-Schauder degree theory. On the other hand Kirk and Schonberg [9] used the domain invariance theorem of Deimling [3] to prove some general minimum principles for continuous accretive operators. Kirk and Schonberg [10] also obtained the range of m-accretive operators (multi-valued and without any continuity assumption) and the implications of an equivalent boundary conditions. Their fundamental tool of proofs is based on a precise analysis of the orbit of resolvents of m-accretive operator at a specified point in its domain. In this paper we obtain a sufficient condition for m-accretive operators to have a zero. From this we derive Theorem 1 of Kirk and Schonberg [10] and some results of Morales [12, 13] and Torrejon[15]. And we further generalize Theorem 5 of Browder [1] by using Theorem 3 of Kirk and Schonberg [10].

We investigate the existence of multiple solutions (${\xi},{\eta}$) for perturbations of the parabolic system with Dirichlet boundary condition $$(0.1)\;\begin{array}{lcr}{\xi}_t=-L{\xi}+g_1(3{\xi}+{\eta})-s{\phi}_1-h_1(x,t)\;in\;{\Omega}{\times}(0,\;2{\pi}),\\{\eta}_t=-L{\eta}+g_2(3{\xi}+{\eta})-s{\phi}_1-h_2(x,t)\;in\;{\Omega}{\times}(0,\;2{\pi}).\end{array}$$ We show the existence of multiple solutions (${\xi},{\eta}$) for perturbations of the parabolic system when the nonlinearity $g^{\prime}_1,\;g^{\prime}_2$ are bounded and $3g^{\prime}_1(-{\infty})+g^{\prime}_2(-{\infty})<{\lambda}_1,\;{\lambda}_n<3g^{\prime}_1(+{\infty})+g^{\prime}_2(+{\infty})<{\lambda}_{n+1}$.

We study the existence and nonexistence of positive periodic solutions of a non-autonomous functional differential equation with impulses. The equations we study may be of delay, advance or mixed type functional differential equations and the impulses may cause the existence of positive periodic solutions. The methods employed are fixed-point index theorem, Leray-Schauder degree, and upper and lower solutions. The results obtained are new, and some examples are given to illustrate our main results.

We have a concern with the existence of solutions (${\xi},{\eta}$) for perturbations of the parabolic system with Dirichlet boundary condition $$(0.1)\;\begin{array}{lcr}{\xi}_t=-L{\xi}+{\mu}g(3{\xi}+{\eta})-s{\phi}_1-h_1(x,t)\;in\;{\Omega}{\times}(0,2{\pi}),\\{\eta}_t=-L{\eta}+{\nu}g(3{\xi}+{\eta})-s{\phi}_1-h_2(x,t)\;in\;{\Omega}{\times}(0,2{\pi})\end{array}.$$ We prove the uniqueness theorem when the nonlinearity does not cross eigenvalues. We also investigate multiple solutions (${\xi}(x,t),\;{\eta}(x,t)$) for perturbations of the parabolic system with Dirichlet boundary condition when the nonlinearity f' is bounded and $f^{\prime}(-{\infty})<{\lambda}_1,{\lambda}_n<(3{\mu}+{\nu})f^{\prime}(+{\infty})<{\lambda}_{n+1}$.
