Compression-expansion critical point theory in conical shells

Abstract

A Krasnoselskii type compression-expansion fixed point theorem is adapted for the treatment of systems of semi-Unear equations. The compression-expansion conditions are given componentwise which allows the nonlinear term of a system to have different behaviors both in components and in variables. Applications to boundary value problems for systems of second order differential equations are included.
