利用拓扑度理论和Mo rse理论研究方程u(4)(t)=f(t,u),t∈(0,1),且带有边界条件u″(0)=u″(1)=0,u(0)=u(1)=0.在一定条件下,得到此问题有六个解,其中两个正解,两个负解,两个变号解.
临界群;变号解;Mo rse理论
本文研究以下四阶方程
目前已经有许多文章研究四阶边值问题(1),见文献[1-3],例如,利用锥拉伸和锥压缩不动点定理,得到其正解的存在性,见文[1].利用临界点理论得到非平凡解的存在性,见文献[2],文献[3]利用拓扑度理论研究了变号解的存在性.然而他们没有考虑共振情形,也没有考虑f0(t)和f∞(t)不等于常数的情形,本文把拓扑度理论和Morse理论结合起来,考虑了各种情形下问题(1)的变号解的存在性与多重性,把跨特征值和共振情形统一起来,推广了文献[3]的结果.这是仅仅利用拓扑度理论或Morse理论都无法得到的.本文假设f满足以下条件:

The problemu(4)(t)=f(t,u),t∈(0,1)with the boundary value conditionsu″(0)=u″(1)=0,u(0)=u(1)=0 is studied by using topological degree and Morse theory.Under some conditions,w e obtain this problem has at least six solutions,including two positive solutions,two negative solutions and two sign-changing solutions.
