This paper is concerned with boundary value problems for a fourth-order nonlinear difference equation. Via variational methods and critical point theory, sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence of at least two nontrivial solutions, the existence ofndistinct pairs of nontrivial solutions, and nonexistence of solutions. Some examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the main results.

In this paper, a fourth-order nonlinear difference equation is considered. By making use of the critical point theory, we establish various sets of sufficient conditions for the existence and nonexistence of solutions for Neumann boundary value problem and give some new results. Results obtained generalize and complement the existing ones.

AbstractThe authors explore the boundary value problems of a discrete generalized beam equation. Using the critical point theory, some sufficient conditions for the existence of the solutions are obtained. Several consequences of the main results are also presented. Examples are given to illustrate the theorems.

Abstract In the rectangle Ω = [0, a] × [0, b] the nonlinear hyperbolic equation 𝑢(2,2) = 𝑓(𝑥, 𝑦, 𝑢) with the continuous right-hand side 𝑓 : Ω × ℝ → ℝ is considered. Unimprovable in a sense sufficient conditions of solvability of Dirichlet, Dirichlet–Nicoletti and Nicoletti boundary value problems are established.

In this paper, based on critical point theory, we mainly focus on the multiplicity of nontrivial solutions for a nonlinear discrete Dirichlet boundary value problem involving the mean curvature operator. Without imposing the symmetry or oscillating behavior at infinity on the nonlinear term f, we respectively obtain the sufficient conditions for the existence of at least three non-trivial solutions and the existence of at least two non-trivial solutions under different assumptions on f. In addition, by using the maximum principle, we also deduce the existence of at least three positive solutions from our conclusion. As far as we know, our results are supplements to some well-known ones.

AbstractIn this paper, a higher order nonlinear difference equation is considered. By using the critical point theory, we obtain the existence and multiplicity for solutions of difference Dirichlet boundary value problems and give some new results. The proof is based on the variational methods and linking theorem.

We consider the boundary value problem for a fourth order nonlinearp-Laplacian difference equation containing both advance and retardation. By using Mountain pass lemma and some established inequalities, sufficient conditions of the existence of solutions of the boundary value problem are obtained. And an illustrative example is given in the last part of the paper.
