Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The study of the existence, nonexistence, and the uniqueness of solutions of boundary value problems, coupled to its stability, plays a fundamental role in the research of different kinds of differential equations (ordinary, fractional, and partial). One of the main tools developed in this area consists of fixed point theory and critical point theory.

The aim of this Special Issue is to study this type of problem in a broad sense. The development of theories that ensure the existence of solutions via topological or variational methods will contribute to the enrichment of this topic and will broaden the knowledge of this area.

This issue is a continuation of the previous successful Special Issue “Mathematical Analysis and Boundary Value Problems”.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Bifurcation-Type Results for the Fractional p-Laplacian with Parametric Nonlinear Reaction

Abstract
We consider a nonlinear, nonlocal elliptic equation driven by the degenerate fractional p-Laplacian with a Dirichlet boundary condition and involving a parameter λ>0. The reaction is of general type, including concave–convex reactions as a special case. By means of [...] Read more.
We consider a nonlinear, nonlocal elliptic equation driven by the degenerate fractional p-Laplacian with a Dirichlet boundary condition and involving a parameter λ>0. The reaction is of general type, including concave–convex reactions as a special case. By means of variational methods and truncation techniques, we prove that there exists λ* such that the problem has two positive solutions for λ<λ*, one solution for λ=λ*, and no solutions for λ>λ*.

The main crux of this work is to study the existence of extremal solutions for a new class of nonlinear sequential fractional differential equations (NSFDEs) with nonlinear boundary conditions (NBCs) under the ψ-Caputo operator. The obtained outcomes of the proposed problem are derived by means of the monotone iterative technique (MIT) associated with the method of upper and lower solutions. Lastly, the desired findings are well illustrated by an example. Full article

Two contact models are considered, with the behavior of the materials being described by a constitutive law governed by the subdifferential of a convex map. We deliver variational formulations based on the theory of bipotentials. In this approach, the unknowns are pairs consisting of the displacement field and the Cauchy stress tensor. The two-field weak solutions are sought into product spaces involving variable convex sets. Both models lead to variational systems which can be cast in an abstract setting. After delivering some abstract results, we apply them in order to study the weak solvability of the mechanical models as well as the data dependence of the weak solutions. Full article
