Non-well-ordered lower and upper solutions for semilinear systems of PDEs

    https://doi.org/10.1142/S0219199721500802Cited by:1 (Source: Crossref)

    We prove existence results for systems of boundary value problems involving elliptic second-order differential operators. The assumptions involve lower and upper solutions, which may be either well-ordered, or not at all. The results are stated in an abstract framework, and can be translated also for systems of parabolic type.
