Differential Equations in Abstract Cones

We extend the method of quasilinearization to differential equations in abstract normal cones. Under some assumptions, corresponding monotone iterations converge to the unique solution of our problem and this convergence is superlinear or semi–superlinear

A Differential Game Described by a Hyperbolic System

An antagonistic differential game of hyperbolic type with a separable linear vector pay-off function is considered. The main result is the description of all ε-Slater saddle points consisting of program strategies, program ε-Slater maximins and minimaxes for each ε ∈ R^N > for this game. To this purpose, the considered differential game is reduced to find the optimal program strategies of two multicriterial problems of hyperbolic type. The application of approximation enables us to relate these problems to a problem of optimal program control, described by a system of ordinary differential equations, with a scalar pay-off function. It is found that the result of this problem is not changed, if the players use positional or program strategies. For the considered differential game, it is interesting that the ε-Slater saddle points are not equivalent and there exist two ε-Slater saddle points for which the values of all components of the vector pay-off function at one of them are greater than the respective components of the other ε-saddle point.

Integral Manifolds and Bounded Solutions of Singularly Perturbed Systems of Impulsive Differential Equations

Sufficient conditions for the existence of bounded solutions of singularly perturbed impulsive differential equations are obtained. For this purpose integral manifolds are used.

Extremal Solutions for a Class of Functional Differential Equations

We study, in Carathéodory assumptions, existence, continuation and continuous dependence of extremal solutions for an abstract and rather general class of hereditary differential equations. By some examples we prove that, unlike the nonfunctional case, solved Cauchy problems for hereditary differential equations may not have local extremal solutions.

Application of Lyapunov's Direct Method to the Existence of Integral Manifolds of Impulsive Differential Equations

The present paper investigates the existence of integral manifolds for impulsive differential equations with variable perturbations. By means of piecewise continuous functions which are generalizations of the classical Lyapunov’s functions, sufficient conditions for the existence of integral manifolds of such equations are found.
