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, by using the Krasnoselskii fixed point theorem, we study the existence of 2m or 2m + 1 symmetric positive solutions of fourth-order two point boundary value problem y(4)(t) - f(t, y(t), y"(t))= 0, y(0) = y(1) = y'(0) = y"(1)=0.

In this article, we establish the existence of at least three unbounded positive solutions to a boundary-value problem of the nonlinear singular fractional differential equation. Our analysis relies on the well known fixed point theorems in the cones.

By using the fixed point index theory, we investigate the existence of at least two positive solutions for p-Laplace equation with sign-changing nonlinear terms $(\varphi_p(u'))'+a(t)f(t,u(t),u'(t))=0$, subject to some boundary conditions. As an application, we also give an example to illustrate our results.

This paper concerns with a class of delayed Nicholson's blowflies model with a nonlinear density-dependent mortality term. Under appropriate conditions, we establish some criteria to ensure that the solutions of this model converge globally exponentially to a positive almost periodic solution. Moreover, we give some examples and numerical simulations to illustrate our main results.

In this paper we investigate the existence of positive solutions of a nonlinear biharmonic equation under Dirichlet boundary condition in a bounded open set ${\Omega}$ in $\mathbf{R}^n$, i.e., $${\Delta}^2u+c{\Delta}u=bu^{+}+s\;in\;{\Omega},\\u=0,\;{\Delta}u=0\;on\;{\partial}{\Omega}$$.

Algebraic matrix Riccati equations of the form, FP+PF$^{T}$ -PRP+Q=0. are analyzed with reference to the stability of closed-loop system F-PR. Here F, R and Q are n * n real matrices with R=R$^{T}$ and Q=Q$^{T}$ .geq.0 (nonnegative-definite). Such equations have been playing key roles in optimal control and filtering problems with R .geq. 0. and also in the solutions of in H$_{\infty}$ control problems with R taking the form R=H$_{1}$$^{T}$ H$_{1}$-H$_{2}$$^{T}$ H$_{2}$. In both cases an existence of stabilizing solution, i.e. the solution yielding asymptotically stable closed-loop system, is an important problem. First, we briefly review the typical results when R is of definite form, namely either R .geq. 0 as in LQG problems or R .leq. 0. They constitute two extrence cases of Riccati to the cases H$_{2}$=0 and H$_{1}$=0. Necessary and sufficient conditions are shown for the existence of nonnegative-definite or positive-definite stabilizing solution. Secondly, we focus our attention on more general case where R is only assumed to be symmetric, which obviously includes the case for H$_{\infty}$ control problems. Here, necessary conditions are established for the existence of nonnegative-definite or positive-definite stabilizing solutions. The results are established by employing consistently the so-called algebraic method based on an eigenvalue problem of a Hamiltonian matrix.x.ix.x.

In this paper, we will investigate the existence of positive solutions to the predator-prey interacting system $$ {-\varphi(x, u)\Delta u = uf(x, u, \upsilon) in \Omega {-\psi(x, \upsilon)\Delta\upsilon = \upsilon g(x, u, \upsilon) {\frac{\partial n}{\partial u} + ku = 0 on \partial\Omega {\frac{\partial n}{\partial\upsilon} + \sigma\upsilon = 0. $$ in a bound region $\Omega$ in $R^n$ with smooth boundary, where $\varphi$ and $\psi$ are strictly positive functions, serving as nonlinear diffusion rates, and $k, \sigma > 0$ are constants.

We obtain a theorem that shows the existence of multiple solutions for the mixed type nonlinear elliptic equation with Dirichlet boundary condition. Here the nonlinear part contain the jumping nonlinearity and the subcritical growth nonlinearity. We first show the existence of a positive solution and next find the second nontrivial solution by applying the variational method and the mountain pass method in the critical point theory. By investigating that the functional I satisfies the mountain pass geometry we show the existence of at least two nontrivial solutions for the equation.

In the field of population dynamics and chemical reaction the possibility or the existence of spatially and temporally nonhomogeneous solutions is a very important problem. For last 50 years or so there have been many results on the pattern formation of chemical reaction systems studying reaction systems with or without diffusions to explain instabilities and nonhomogeneous states arising in biological situations. In this paper we study time-dependent properties of a predator-prey system with functional response and give sufficient conditions that guarantee the existence of stable limit cycles.
