Abstract:
Using variational methods, we study the existence of positive
solutions for a nonlocal boundary-value problem with vector-valued
response. We develop duality and variational principles for this
problem and present a numerical version which enables the
approximation of solutions and gives a measure of a duality gap
between primal and dual functional for approximate solutions
for this problem.
