Genre: Mathematics
ISBN:

Written in a clear and accurate language that students can understand, Trench's new book minimizes the number of explicitly stated theorems and definitions. Instead, he deals with concepts in a conversational style that engages students. He includes more than 250 illustrated, worked examples for easy reading and comprehension. One of the book's many strengths is its problems, which are of consistently high quality. Trench includes a thorough treatment of boundary-value problems and partial differential equations and has organized the book to allow instructors to select the level of technology desired. This has been simplified by using symbols, C and L, to designate the level of technology. C problems call for computations and/or graphics, while L problems are laboratory exercises that require extensive use of technology. Informal advice on the use of technology is included in several sections and instructors who prefer not to emphasize technology can ignore these exercises without interrupting the flow of material.

Boundary Value Problems for Systems of Differential, Difference and Fractional Equations: Positive Solutions discusses the concept of a differential equation that brings together a set of additional constraints called the boundary conditions. As boundary value problems arise in several branches of math given the fact that any physical differential equation will have them, this book will provide a timely presentation on the topic. Problems involving the wave equation, such as the determination of normal modes, are often stated as boundary value problems. To be useful in applications, a boundary value problem should be well posed. This means that given the input to the problem there exists a unique solution, which depends continuously on the input. Much theoretical work in the field of partial differential equations is devoted to proving that boundary value problems arising from scientific and engineering applications are in fact well-posed. - Explains the systems of second order and higher orders differential equations with integral and multi-point boundary conditions - Discusses second order difference equations with multi-point boundary conditions - Introduces Riemann-Liouville fractional differential equations with uncoupled and coupled integral boundary conditions

The last fifty years have witnessed several monographs and hundreds of research articles on the theory, constructive methods and wide spectrum of applications of boundary value problems for ordinary differential equations. In this vast field of research, the conjugate (Hermite) and the right focal point (Abei) types of problems have received the maximum attention. This is largely due to the fact that these types of problems are basic, in the sense that the methods employed in their study are easily extendable to other types of prob lems. Moreover, the conjugate and the right focal point types of boundary value problems occur frequently in real world problems. In the monograph Boundary Value Problems for Higher Order Differential Equations published in 1986, we addressed the theory of conjugate boundary value problems. At that time the results on right focal point problems were scarce; however, in the last ten years extensive research has been done. In Chapter 1 of the mono graph we offer up-to-date information of this newly developed theory of right focal point boundary value problems. Until twenty years ago Difference Equations were considered as the dis cretizations of the differential equations. Further, it was tacitly taken for granted that the theories of difference and differential equations are parallel. However, striking diversities and wide applications reported in the last two decades have made difference equations one of the major areas of research.

This book offers the reader a new approach to the solvability of boundary value problems with state-dependent impulses and provides recently obtained existence results for state dependent impulsive problems with general linear boundary conditions. It covers fixed-time impulsive boundary value problems both regular and singular and deals with higher order differential equations or with systems that are subject to general linear boundary conditions. We treat state-dependent impulsive boundary value problems, including a new approach giving effective conditions for the solvability of the Dirichlet problem with one state-dependent impulse condition and we show that the depicted approach can be extended to problems with a finite number of state-dependent impulses. We investigate the Sturm–Liouville boundary value problem for a more general right-hand side of a differential equation. Finally, we offer generalizations to higher order differential equations or differential systems subject to general linear boundary conditions.

Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2014 in the subject Mathematics - Applied Mathematics, , language: English, abstract: Some of the problems of real world phenomena can be described by differential equations involving the ordinary or partial derivatives with some initial or boundary conditions. To interpret the physical behavior of the problem it is necessary to know the solution of the differential equation. Unfortunately, it is not possible to solve some of the differential equations whether they are ordinary or partial with initial or boundary conditions through the analytical methods. When, we fail to find the solution of ordinary differential equation or partial differential equation with initial or boundary conditions through the analytical methods, one can obtain the numerical solution of such problems through the numerical methods up to the desired degree of accuracy. Of course, these numerical methods can also be applied to find the numerical solution of a differential equation which can be solved analytically. Several problems in natural sciences, social sciences, medicine, business management, engineering, particle dynamics, fluid mechanics, elasticity, heat transfer, chemistry, economics, anthropology and finance can be transformed into boundary value problems using mathematical modeling. A few problems in various fields of science and engineering yield linear and nonlinear boundary value problems of second order such as heat equation in thermal studies, wave equation in communication etc. Fifth-order boundary value problems generally arise in mathematical modeling of viscoelastic flows. The dynamo action in some stars may be modeled by sixth-order boundary-value problems. The narrow convecting layers bounded by stable layers which are believed to surround A-type stars may be modeled by sixth-order boundary value problems which arise in astrophysics. The seventh order boundary value problems generally arise in modeling induction motors with two rotor circuits. Various phenomena such as convection, flow in wind tunnels, lee waves, eddies, etc. can also be modeled by higher order boundary value problems.
