Boundary value problems are considered on a simplex <em>F</em> in the real Euclidean space R<sup>2</sup>. The recent discovery of new families of special functions, orthogonal on <em>F</em>, makes it possible to consider not only the Dirichlet or Neumann boundary value problems on <em>F</em>, but also the mixed boundary value problem which is a mixture of Dirichlet and Neumann type, ie. on some parts of the boundary of <em>F</em> a Dirichlet condition is fulfilled and on the other Neumann’s works.

We prove new results on the existence, non-existence, localization and multiplicity of non-trivial solutions for perturbed Hammerstein integral equations. Our approach is topological and relies on the classical fixed-point index. Some of the criteria involve a comparison with the spectral radius of some related linear operators. We apply our results to some boundary-value problems with local and non-local boundary conditions of Neumann type. We illustrate in some examples the methodologies used.

AbstractFractional differential equation (FDE) provides an accurate description of transport processes that exhibit anomalous diffusion but introduces new mathematical difficulties that have not been encountered in the context of integer-order differential equation. For example, the wellposedness of the Dirichlet boundary-value problem of one-dimensional variable-coefficient FDE is not fully resolved yet. In addition, Neumann boundary-value problem of FDE poses significant challenges, partly due to the fact that different forms of FDE and different types of Neumann boundary condition have been proposed in the literature depending on different applications.We conduct preliminary mathematical analysis of the wellposedness of different Neumann boundary-value problems of the FDEs. We prove that five out of the nine combinations of three different forms of FDEs that are closed by three types of Neumann boundary conditions are well posed and the remaining four do not admit a solution. In particular, for each form of the FDE there is at least one type of Neumann boundary condition such that the corresponding boundary-value problem is well posed, but there is also at least one type of Neumann boundary condition such that the corresponding boundary-value problem is ill posed. This fully demonstrates the subtlety of the study of FDE, and, in particular, the crucial mathematical modeling question: which combination of FDE and fractional Neumann boundary condition, rather than which form of FDE or fractional Neumann boundary condition, should be used and studied in applications.

By using conformal mappings, it is possible to express the solution of certain boundary-value problems for the Laplace equation in terms of a single integral involving the given boundary data. We show that such explicit formulae can be used to obtain novel identity for special functions. A convenient tool for deriving this type of identity is the so-called global relation , which has appeared recently in a wide range of boundary-value problems. As a concrete application, we analyse the Neumann boundary-value problem for the Laplace equation in the exterior of the Hankel contour, which appears in the definition of both the gamma and the Riemann zeta functions. By using the explicit solution of this problem, we derive a number of novel identities involving the hypergeometric function. Also, we point out an interesting connection between the solution of the above Neumann boundary-value problem for a particular set of Neumann data and the Riemann hypothesis.
