Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Currently, there are many scientific challenges in the fascinating field of nonlinear differential equations and their applications. An important direction is the development of new, and improvement of known, methods of research and solving nonlinear problems, but no less important is the study of the properties and modelling of nonlinear mathematical problems arising in various applied areas.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to gather the latest contributions with recent advances in the mathematical theory of nonlinear boundary value problems and applications of nonlinear mathematical models to the broad fields of science and engineering.

We invite the authors to submit original research articles and high-quality review articles in the field of nonlinear boundary value problems obtained from development of methods of mathematical analysis and simulation of nonlinear models based on ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations, systems of partial differential equations and integro-differential equations, variational methods, computational methods, numerical analysis and others.

In this paper, a special class of boundary value problems, u=λuq+ur,inΩ,u>0, inΩ,n·u+g(u)u=0,onΩ, where 0<q<1<r<N+2N2 and g:[0,)(0,) is a nondecreasing C1 function. Here, ΩRN(N3) is a bounded domain with smooth boundary Ω and λ>0 is a parameter. The existence of the solution is verified via sub- and super-solutions method. In addition, the influences of parameters on the minimum solution are also discussed. The second positive solution is obtained by using the variational method. Full article

In this paper, the thermal explosion model described by a nonlinear boundary value problem is studied. Firstly, we prove the comparison principle under nonlinear boundary conditions. Secondly, using the sub-super solution theorem, we prove the existence of a positive solution for the case K(x)>0, as well as the monotonicity of the maximal solution on parameter λ. Thirdly, the uniqueness of the solution for K(x)<0 is proved, as well as the monotonicity of the solutions on parameter λ. Finally, we obtain some new results for the existence of solutions, and the dependence on the λ for the case K(x) is sign-changing. Full article

The boundary value problem for the steady Navier–Stokes system is considered in a 2D multiply-connected bounded domain with the boundary having a power cusp singularity at the point O. The case of a boundary value with nonzero flow rates over connected components of the boundary is studied. It is also supposed that there is a source/sink in O. In this case the solution necessarily has an infinite Dirichlet integral. The existence of a solution to this problem is proved assuming that the flow rates are “sufficiently small”. This condition does not require the norm of the boundary data to be small. The solution is constructed as the sum of a function with the finite Dirichlet integral and a singular part coinciding with the asymptotic decomposition near the cusp point. Full article

The paper is devoted to a nonstationary initial–boundary value problem governing complex heat exchange in a convex semitransparent body containing several absolutely black inclusions. The existence and uniqueness of a weak solution to this problem are proven herein. In addition, the stability of solutions with respect to data, a comparison theorem and the results of improving the properties of solutions with an increase in the summability of the data were established. All results are global in terms of time and data. Full article

In the present article, we study a new class of sequential boundary value problems of fractional order differential equations and inclusions involving ψ-Hilfer fractional derivatives, supplemented with integral multi-point boundary conditions. The main results are obtained by employing tools from fixed point theory. Thus, in the single-valued case, the existence of a unique solution is proved by using the classical Banach fixed point theorem while an existence result is established via Krasnosel’skiĭ’s fixed point theorem. The Leray–Schauder nonlinear alternative for multi-valued maps is the basic tool to prove an existence result in the multi-valued case. Finally, our results are well illustrated by numerical examples. Full article

An inverse problem for a system of equations modeling oxygen transport in the brain is studied. The problem consists of finding the right-hand side of the equation for the blood oxygen transport, which is a linear combination of given functionals describing the average oxygen concentration in the neighborhoods of the ends of arterioles and venules. The overdetermination condition is determined by the values of these functionals evaluated on the solution. The unique solvability of the problem is proven without any smallness assumptions on the model parameters. Full article
