The Douglas–Rachford method has been employed successfully to solve many kinds of nonconvex feasibility problems. In particular, recent research has shown surprising stability for the method when it is applied to finding the intersections of hypersurfaces. Motivated by these discoveries, we reformulate a second order boundary value problem (BVP) as a feasibility problem where the sets are hypersurfaces. We show that such a problem may always be reformulated as a feasibility problem on no more than three sets and is well suited to parallelization. We explore the stability of the method by applying it to several BVPs, including cases where the traditional Newton’s method fails.

SynopsisThe existence of a variational solution is shown for the strongly non-linear elliptic boundary value problem in unbounded domains. The proof is a generalisation to Orlicz-Sobolev space setting of the idea introduced in [15] for the equations involving polynomial non-linearities only.

AbstractThe existence of two nontrivial solutions for a class of nonlinear second-order discrete boundary value problems is established. The approach adopted is based on variational methods.
