In this paper it is dealt with the following system of difference equations x_{n+1}=((a_{n})/(x_{n}))+((b_{n})/(y_{n})), y_{n+1}=((c_{n})/(x_{n}))+((d_{n})/(y_{n})), n in N_0, where the initial values x_0,y_0 are positive real numbers and…

We investigate and derive second solutions to linear homogeneous second-order difference equations using a variety of methods, in each case going beyond the purely formal solution and giving explicit expressions for the second solution. We…
The scalar difference equation $x_{n+1}=f_{n}(x_{n},x_{n-1},...,x_{n-k})$ may exhibit symmetries in its form that allow for reduction of order through substitution or a change of variables. Such form symmetries can be defined generally…

We extend the classical Bernstein technique to the setting of integro-differential operators. As a consequence, we provide first and one-sided second derivative estimates for solutions to fractional equations, including some convex fully…

We present a new duality theory for non-convex variational problems, under possibly mixed Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. The dual problem reads nicely as a linear programming problem, and our main result states that there is no…
We state some elementary problems concerning the relation between difference calculus and differential calculus, and we try to convince the reader that, in spite of the simplicity of the statements, a solution of these problems would be a…
It is shown that for $f$ analytic and convex in $z\in D=\{z:|z|<1\}$ and given by $f(z)=z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}a_{n}z^{n}$, the difference of coefficients $||a_{3}|-|a_{2}||\le 25/48$ and $||a_{4}|-|a_{3}||\le 25/48$ . Both inequalities are…

We consider a class of equations in divergence form with a singular/degenerate weight $$ -\mathrm{div}(|y|^a A(x,y)\nabla u)=|y|^a f(x,y)+\textrm{div}(|y|^aF(x,y))\;. $$ Under suitable regularity assumptions for the matrix $A$, the forcing…
We provide fundamental properties of the first eigenpair for fractional $p$-Laplacian eigenvalue problems under singular weights, which is related to Hardy type inequality, and also show that the second eigenvalue is well-defined. We obtain…
It is proven that second-order vectorial nonlinear differential systems y''=f(y) , possess a continuum of symmetric solutions. They are shown to possess a continuum of even solutions. If f(y) is an odd function of y , then y''=f(y) is shown…
Numerical solving differential equations with fractional derivatives requires elimination of the singularity which is inherent in the standard definition of fractional derivatives. The method of integration by parts to eliminate this…
