Existence and uniqueness of solutions to first-order systems of
nonlinear impulsive boundary-value problems with sub-, super-linear
or linear growth
Juan J. Nieto, Christopher C. Tisdell
Abstract:
In this work we present some new results concerning the existence and
uniqueness of solutions to an impulsive first-order, nonlinear ordinary
differential equation with "non-periodic" boundary conditions. These
boundary conditions include, as a special case, so-called
"anti-periodic" boundary conditions.
Our methods to prove the existence and uniqueness of
solutions involve new differential inequalities,
the classical fixed-point theorem of Schaefer,
and the Nonlinear Alternative.
Our new results apply to systems of impulsive differential
equations where the right-hand side of the equation may grow
linearly, or sub- or super-linearly in its second argument.
