1 Introduction

In this paper,we are concerned with the following third order differential equations arising in the boundary layer theory

with boundary conditions

Which has been used to describe the 3D axisymmetric inviscid stagnation flow[1,2].A solution of(1)～(3)is called a similarity solution.The two-dimensional case,λ=g=0,was solved by Hiemenz[3].The axisymmetric stagnation flow towards a plate,λ=1 and g=f,was solved by Homann[4].Howarth[5]studied the case 0＜λ＜1 which can be applied to the stagnation region of an ellipsoid.Davey[6]investigated the stagnation region near a saddle point(-1＜λ＜0).For λ≤-1 the vorticity generated is not confined in the boundary layer and the existence of solutions cannot be shown[2].Up to now,there is a little study on the case of λ≤-1.

Utilizing the integral methods[7,8],Du Hauang and Zhang[9]presented a system of two integral equations on the case of λ＜0 and obtained some properties and a non-existence result of(1)～ (3)on the case of λ＜-4.

In this paper,we shall study(1)～ (3)for the case of λ∈ R and λ≠0,we shall obtain further results on(1)～(3)and a new non-existence result on the case of λ≤-1.

2 Positive solutions of a system of two integral equations

In[9],Du,Hauang,Zhang presented a system of two integral equations

Where G0,1(t,s)denotes the Green function for u″(t)=0 with u(0)=0 and u(1)=0 defined by

They obtained the following results：

(i)For λ＜0(1)～(3)has a solution in∑if and only if(4)～(5)has a positive solution

(ii)For λ＜-4(1)～(3)has no solution in ∑.

In this paper,let

and

Theorem1 If(λ,z,w)∈(-∞,+∞)×Q is a solution of(4)～(5),then

(iii)w(0)=0,w(1)=1 and w(t)≥-1 for t∈[0,1]if λ＜0 and w(t)≤1 for t∈[0,1]if λ＞0.

(i)Firstly,we prove z(t)=0.

If z(1)≠0,then z(t)≠0,t∈[0,1].

By the continuity of z(t),then m=min{z(t),t∈[0,1]}＞0.From this and λ＞0,we obtain by(4)

This implies

a contradiction.Hence,(i)holds.

Since z(t)＞0 for t∈(0,1),we have

Integrating this inequality from 0 to ξ,we have

From this we obtain

Letting ξ→1-in the last inequality,we have,which contradicts∞.Thus,(ii)holds.

(iii)Letting t=0 and t=1 in(5),we have w(0)=0 and w(1)=1.

If λ＞0 and there exist t0∈[0,1]such that w(t0)＞1.Since w(0)=0,and w(1)=1,there must be exist t*∈(0,1)such that w(t*)=max{w(t)：t∈[0,1]}and w(t*)＞1.

By(5),we have

Reamrk1 Since we do not assume λ＜0 and Q ⊆Q*,hence Theorem 1 in[9]is improved.

Utilizing the solutions of(z,w)∈Q*,we may construct the solutions of(1)～(3)and then the use of(4)～(5)is expanded.

Theorem2 If(z,w)∈Q*is a solution of(4)～(5),then(1)～(3)has a solution(f,g).

Proof.Let(z,w)∈Q*be a solution of(4)～(5).By Theorem 1(ii),we have

Let

Then η(t)is strictly increasing on[0,1)and

Let t=h(η)be the inverse function to η=η(t),we define the function

Then

and

From(6),we have

Differentiating(7)with respect to η,we have

Then f″(η)＞0 for 0≤η＜+∞.

Differentiating(8)with respect to η,we have

Differentiating(4)with respect to t,we have

By setting s=f′(α)and utilizing t=f′(η)and(8),we have

By(8)～(11),we have

Combing(10)and(11),we obtain

This completes the proof.

3 A non-existence result on(1)～(3)

Let

Lemma1 Let λ＜0.If(f,g)∈Γis a solution of(1)～(3),then g″(∞)=0.

Proof.Since g′(+∞)=1,we have

Since(1)～(3),we have g‴(0)=-λ,and λ＜0.then g‴(0)＞0 and g″(η)＞0.we have ∃η*,such that g″(η)is increasing on[0,η*].(12)implies that there exists η0∈[η*,+∞)such that g″(η0)＜g″(η*).Then we prove that g″(η)is decreasing on(η0,+∞).If there must exist η1,η2∈[ η0,+∞)with η1＜η2such that g″(η1)＜g″(η2).So let ˜η∈[ η*,η2]such that g″(˜η)=min{g″(η)：η∈[ η*,η2]}.This implies g‴(˜η)=0 and g(4)(˜η)≥0.

Differentiating(2)with η,we have

then

By(f,g)∈Γand λ＜0,we have g(4)(˜η)≤0,a contradiction.Hence g″(η)is decreasing on[ η0,+∞)and thenexists.By(12),we obtain g″(∞)=0.

Theorem3 If λ≤-1,then(1)～ (3)has no solution in Γ.

Proof.The proof is by a contradiction.If(1)～ (3)has a solution(f,g)in Γ,then g″＞0.

Let η：=η(t)=(g′)-1(t)for t∈[0,1)be the inverse function to t=g′(η)：[0,∞)→[0,1).It follows that g′is strictly increasing with[0,+∞)and η(t)=(g′)-1(t)：[0,1)→[0,∞)with(g′)-1(0)=0

Let x(t)=g″(η)＞0 for t∈[0,1),by Lemma 1,x(1)=.This implies that x(t)＞0 for t∈[0,1)and x is continuous on[0,1).By Lemma 1,we see that x is continuous from the left at 1.Hence,we have x(t)∈C[0,1]and x(1)=0.

Using the Chain Rule to x(t)=g″(η),we obtainand by the Inverse Function Theorem,we have

This,together with g′(η)=t,implies

Integrating the last equality from 0 to t implies

Let y(t)=f′(η)for t∈[0,1),y(1)=1,then y(t)∈ C[0,1)and 0≤y(t)≤1.Notice thatwe have

Substituting g,g′,g″,g‴and f into(2)implies

Integrating(13)from t to 1,we have

By x(1)=0,then

we have
