Positive solutions for a nonlocal boundary-value problem with vector-valued response

Andrzej Nowakowski & Aleksandra Orpel

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.
