Monotone iterative method for the second-order three-point boundary value problem with upper and lower solutions in the reversed order

摘要

This article introduces a new concept of upper and lower solutions and studies the existence and uniqueness of solutions of second-order three-point boundary value problems with upper and lower solutions in the reversed order. The sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of solutions are obtained by using the monotone iterative method, meantime, the iterative sequence for solving a solution and its error estimate formula under the condition of unique solution are given. Some results of previous literature are extended and improved. A numerical example is also included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed results.
