  • This paper deals with the multipoint boundary value problem for one dimensional p-Laplacian $({\phi}_p(u'))'(t)$ + f(t,u(t)) = 0, $t{\in}$ (0, 1), subject to the boundary value conditions: u'(0) - $\sum\limits^n_{i=1}{\alpha_i}u({\xi}_i)$ = 0, u'(1) + $\sum\limits^n_{i=1}{\alpha_i}u({\eta}_i)$ = 0. Using a fixed point theorem for operators on a cone, we provide sufficient conditions for the existence of multiple (at least three) positive solutions to the above boundary value problem.

  • In this paper, we present an initial value technique for solving singularly perturbed differential difference equations with a boundary layer at one end point. Taylor's series is used to tackle the terms containing shift provided the shift is of small order of singular perturbation parameter and obtained a singularly perturbed boundary value problem. This singularly perturbed boundary value problem is replaced by a pair of initial value problems. Classical fourth order Runge-Kutta method is used to solve these initial value problems. The effect of small shift on the boundary layer solution in both the cases, i.e., the boundary layer on the left side as well as the right side is discussed by considering numerical experiments. Several numerical examples are solved to demonstate the applicability of the method.

  • We investigate the number of solutions for the superlinear elliptic bifurcation problem with Dirichlet boundary condition. We get a theorem which shows the existence of at least $k$ weak solutions for the superlinear elliptic bifurcation problem with boundary value condition. We obtain this result by using the critical point theory induced from invariant linear subspace and the invariant functional.

  • We investigate the multiple solutions for a parabolic boundary value problem with jumping nonlinearity crossing no eigenvalues. We show the existence of the unique solution of the parabolic problem with Dirichlet boundary condition and periodic condition when jumping nonlinearity does not cross eigenvalues of the Laplace operator $-{\Delta}$. We prove this result by investigating the Lipschitz constant of the inverse compact operator of $D_t-{\Delta}$ and applying the contraction mapping principle.

  • We consider a finite difference approximation to a singular boundary value problem arising in the study of a nonlinear circular membrane under normal pressure. It is proved that the rate of convergence is $O(h^2)$. To obtain the solution of the finite difference equation, an iterative scheme converging monotonically to the solution of the finite difference equation is introduced. And the numerical experiment of this method is given.

  • Gradient recovery techniques for the second order elliptic boundary value problem are well known. In particular, the Midpoint and the Vertex Recovery Operator have been studied by various authors and under suitable assumptions on the regularity of the unknown solution superconvergence property of these recovered gradients have been proved. In this paper we extend these results to the recovered gradient of the finite element approximation to a model initial-boundary value problem, and go on to prove superconvergence result for this recovered gradient in a discrete (in time) error norm.

  • The nonlinear boundary value problem $$ y" = f(x, y, y') = -\frac{x}{3}y' - \frac{y^2}{g(x)}, 0 < x < 1, $$ $$ (1.1) y'(0) = 0, and either (H) : y(1) = \lambda > 0 $$ $$ or (S) : y'(1) + (1 - \upsilon)y(1) = 0, 1 - \upsilon > 0, $$ $$g \in C[0, 1], k \leq g(x) \leq K on [0, 1] for some k, K > 0 $$ arises in the nonlinear circular membrane under normal pressure [2, 3]., 3].

  • The existence of $n$ positive solutions is established for second order multi-point boundary value problem at resonance where $n$ is an arbitrary natural number. The proof is based on a theory of fixed point index for A-proper semilinear operators defined on cones due to Cremins.
