We prove a necessary optimality condition of Euler--Lagrange type for the calculus of variations with Omega derivatives, which turns out to be sufficient under jointly convexity of the Lagrangian.
The article concerns the problem if a~given system of differential equations is identical with the Euler--Lagrange system of an~appropriate variational integral. Elementary approach is applied. The main results involve the determination of…

The Laguerre calculus is widely used for the inversion of differential operators on the Heisenberg group. We extend the Laguerre calculus for nilpotent groups of step two, and test it in the determining of the fundamental solution of the…

For a self--adjoint Laplace operator on a finite, not necessarily compact, metric graph lower and upper bounds on each of the negative eigenvalues are derived. For compact finite metric graphs Poincar\'{e} type inequalities are given.
The operators of fractional calculus come in many different types, which can be categorised into general classes according to their nature and properties. We conduct a formal study of the class known as weighted fractional calculus and its…
After recalling the notion of Lie algebroid, we construct these structures associated with contact forms or systems. We are then interested in particular classes of Lie Rinehart algebras.

We consider the parabolic Lam\'{e} system on a bounded domain. We focus on two types of inequalities for higher-order derivatives of solutions. The first is related to an $L^p$-$L^p$ estimate locally in time in the Lebesgue space setting,…
