Abstract:
Let
, be an odd increasing homeomorphisms from
onto
satisfying
, and let
be a
function satisfying Caratheodory's conditions.
Let
,
,
,
be given. We are interested in the
existence of solutions for the
-point
boundary-value problem:
in the resonance and non-resonance cases. We say that this problem is at
\emph{resonance} if the associated problem
with the above boundary conditions has a non-trivial solution.
This is the case if and only if
.
Our results use topological degree
methods. In the non-resonance case; i.e., when
we note that the sign of
degree for the relevant operator depends on the sign of
.
