SynopsisThis paper combines the global bifurcation theory of Rabinowitz with Sturmian theory and careful estimates to obtain a detailed qualitative description of bifurcating branches of solutions to the equations for whirling nonuniform, nonlinearly elastic strings. These results generalize earlier work of Kolodner and Stuart on inextensible strings. It is shown that the location of solution branches for the generalization of Kolodner's problem is especially sensitive to the material properties of the string, whereas that for Stuart's problem is not. The analysis of a third problem illuminates the source of this dichotomy.

Abstract In this paper we discuss the existence of a solution between wellordered subsolution and supersolution of the Kirchhoff equation. Using the sub-supersolution method together with a Rabinowitz-type global bifurcation theory, we establish the existence of positive solutions for Kirchhoff-type problems when the nonlinearity is singular or sign-changing. Moreover, we obtain some necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of positive solutions for the problem when N = 1.

Global Bifurcation Theory

In this paper, we show how the global bifurcation theory for nonlinear Fredholm operators (Theorem 4.3 of [Shi & Wang, 2009]) and for compact operators (Theorem 1.3 of [Rabinowitz, 1971]) can be used in the study of the nonconstant stationary solutions for a volume-filling chemotaxis model with logistic growth under Neumann boundary conditions. Our results show that infinitely many local branches of nonconstant solutions bifurcate from the positive constant solution [Formula: see text] at [Formula: see text]. Moreover, for each [Formula: see text], we prove that each [Formula: see text] can be extended into a global curve, and the projection of the bifurcation curve [Formula: see text] onto the [Formula: see text]-axis contains [Formula: see text].

Steady State Solutions

SynopsisWe discuss steady-state solutions of systems of semilinear reaction-diffusion equations which model situations in which two interacting species u and v inhabit the same bounded region. It is easy to find solutions to the systems such that either u or v is identically zero; such solutions correspond to the case where one of the species is extinct. By using decoupling and global bifurcation theory techniques, we prove the existence of solutions which are positive in both u and v corresponding to the case where the populations can co-exist.

In this paper, we study the global bifurcation of infinity of a class of nonlinear eigenvalue problems for fourth-order ordinary differential equations with nondifferentiable nonlinearity. We prove the existence of two families of unbounded continuance of solutions bifurcating at infinity and corresponding to the usual nodal properties near bifurcation intervals.

Competing Populations

A system of reaction–diffusion equations is considered in the unstirred chemostat with an inhibitor. Global structure of the coexistence solutions and their local stability are established. The asymptotic behavior of the system is given as a function of the parameters, and it is determined when neither, one, or both competing populations survive. Finally, the results of some numerical simulations indicate that the global stability of the steady-state solutions is possible. The main tools for our investigations are the maximum principle, monotone method and global bifurcation theory.
