Title: Terminal value problems for first and second order nonlinear equations on time scales Authors: Roman Hilscher (Masaryk Univ., Janackovo, Brno, Czech Republic) Christopher C. Tisdell (Univ. of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia) Abstract: In this paper we examine "terminal" value problems for dynamic equations on time scales - that is, a dynamic equation whose solutions are asymptotic at infinity. We present a number of new theorems that guarantee the existence and uniqueness of solutions, as well as some comparison-type results. The methods we employ feature dynamic inequalities, weighted norms, and fixed-point theory. Submitted February 11, 2008. Published May 01, 2008. Math Subject Classifications: 34C99, 39A10.
