In this paper we study the existence of solutions of a one-dimensional eigenvalue problem $-\left(|\phi_x|^{p-2}\phi_x\right)_x=\lambda \left(|\phi|^{q-2}\phi-f(\phi)\right)$ such that $\phi(0)=\phi(1)=0$, where $p,q>1$, $\lambda$ is a…
Let $z_1, \dots, z_m$ be $m$ distinct complex numbers, normalized to $|z_k| = 1$, and consider the polynomial $$ p_{m}(z) = \prod_{k=1}^{m}{(z-z_k)}.$$ We define a sequence of polynomials in a greedy fashion, $$ p_{N+1}(z) = p_{N}(z)…

We consider the Neumann problem for the equation $u_{xx}+\lambda f(u)=0$ in the punctured interval $(-1,1) \setminus \{0\}$, where $\lambda>0$ is a bifurcation parameter and $f(u)=u-u^3$. At $x=0$, we impose the conditions…
We prove that arbitrary (nonpolynomial) scalar evolution equations of order $m\ge 7$, that are integrable in the sense of admitting the canonical conserved densities $\ro^{(1)}$, $\ro^{(2)}$, and $\ro^{(3)}$ introduced in [MSS,1991], are…
In this article, we study about the solutions of second order linear differential equations by considering several conditions on the coefficients of homogenous linear differential equation and its associated non-homogenous linear…
For R(z, w) rational with complex coefficients, of degree at least 2 in w, we show that the number of rational functions f(z) solving the difference equation f(z+1)=R(z, f(z)) is finite and bounded just in terms of the degrees of R in the…
For every monic polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ with $\operatorname{deg}(f) \geq 1$, let $\mathcal{L}(f)$ be the set of all linear recurrences with values in $\mathbb{Z}$ and characteristic polynomial $f$, and let \begin{equation*}…
We describe an algorithm for the numerical solution of second order linear differential equations in the highly-oscillatory regime. It is founded on the recent observation that the solutions of equations of this type can be accurately…
The Bank-Laine conjecture concerning the oscillation of solutions of second order homogeneous linear differential equations has recently been disproved by Bergweiler and Eremenko. It is shown here, however, that the conjecture is true if…
The main subject of this paper is the study of analytic second order linear partial differential equations. We aim to solve the classical equations and some more, in the real or complex analytical case. This is done by introducing methods…
Asymptotic properties of solutions of difference equation of the form \[ \Delta^m(x_n+u_nx_{n+k})=a_nf(n,x_{\sigma(n)})+b_n \] are studied. We give sufficient conditions under which all solutions, or all solutions with polynomial growth, or…
We consider the Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind, which can be related to the generalised Bernoulli polynomials $B_n^{(n)}(z)$. The asymptotic expansions of the scaled polynomials $B_n^{(n)}(nz)$ are obtained as $n\to\infty$ when…
This paper develops a characterisation of when solutions of forced second order linear differential equations converge to the zero solution of the asymptotically stable and unforced second order equation, or when the solution is bounded,…
We introduce a pair of novel difference equations, whose solutions are expressed in terms of Racah or Wilson polynomials depending on the nature of the finite-difference step. A number of special cases and limit relations are also examined,…

We investigate which polynomials can possibly occur as factors in the denominators of rational solutions of a given partial linear difference equation (PLDE). Two kinds of polynomials are to be distinguished, we call them /periodic/ and…
