Solvability of Neumann boundary-value problems with Caratheodory nonlinearities

Abdelkader Boucherif & Nawal Al-Malki

Abstract:
We propose a sufficient condition, on the nonlinear term, for the existence of solutions. This new condition is weaker than the usual sign condition and than the assumption on the existence of constant upper and lower solutions.
