Uniqueness and existence of positive periodic solutions of functional differential equations

  • In this paper, some new findings on the uniqueness and existence of positive periodic solutions to first-order functional differential equations are presented. These equations have wide applications in a variety of fields. The most important feature of our argument is that we use the theory of Hilbert's metric to prove the uniqueness of the positive periodic solution when q=1 and 1<q<0. In addition, we also investigate the existence results of positive periodic solutions by applying a fixed point theorem for completely continuous maps in a cone. Two examples demonstrate our findings.

    The Hermite-Hadamard inequality, which is one of the basic inequalities of inequality theory, has many applications in statistics and optimization theory, as well as providing estimates about the mean value of convex functions.

    Assume that f:IRR is a convex mapping defined on the interval I of R where a<b. The following statement;

    f(a+b2)1babaf(x)dxf(a)+f(b)2

    holds and known as Hermite-Hadamard inequality. Both inequalities hold in the reversed direction if f is concave.

    The concept of convex function, which is used in many classical and analytical inequalities, especially the Hermite-Hadamard inequality, has attracted the attention of many researchers see [4,7,8,9], and has expanded its application area with the construction of new convex function classes. The introduction of this useful class of functions for functions of two variables gave a new direction to convex analysis. In this sense, in [6], Dragomir mentioned about an expansion of the concept of convex function, which is used in many inequalities in theory and has applications in different fields of applied sciences and convex programming.

    Definition 1.1. Let us consider the bidimensional interval Δ=[a,b]×[c,d] in R2 with a<b,c<d. A function f:ΔR will be called convex on the co-ordinates if the partial mappings fy:[a,b]R,fy(u)=f(u,y) and fx:[c,d]R,fx(v)=f(x,v) are convex where defined for all y[c,d] and x[a,b]. Recall that the mapping f:ΔR is convex on Δ if the following inequality holds,

    f(λx+(1λ)z,λy+(1λ)w)λf(x,y)+(1λ)f(z,w)

    for all (x,y),(z,w)Δ and λ[0,1].

    Transferring the concept of convex function to coordinates inspired the presentation of Hermite-Hadamard inequality in coordinates and Dragomir proved this inequality as follows.

    Theorem 1.1. (See [6]) Suppose that f:Δ=[a,b]×[c,d]R is convex on the co-ordinates on Δ. Then one has the inequalities;

     f(a+b2,c+d2)12[1babaf(x,c+d2)dx+1dcdcf(a+b2,y)dy]1(ba)(dc)badcf(x,y)dxdy14[1(ba)baf(x,c)dx+1(ba)baf(x,d)dx+1(dc)dcf(a,y)dy+1(dc)dcf(b,y)dy]f(a,c)+f(a,d)+f(b,c)+f(b,d)4. (1.1)

    The above inequalities are sharp.

    To provide further information about convexity and inequalities that have been established on the coordinates, see the papers [1,2,5,10,11,12,13,14,15]).

    One of the trending problems of recent times is to present different types of convex functions and to derive new inequalities for these function classes. Now we will continue by remembering the concept of n-polynomial convex function.

    Definition 1.2. (See [16]) Let nN. A non-negative function f:IRR is called n-polynomial convex function if for every x,yI and t[0,1],

    f(tx+(1t)y)1nns=1(1(1t)s)f(x)+1nns=1(1ts)f(y).

    We will denote by POLC(I) the class of all n-polynomial convex functions on interval I.

    In the same paper, the authors have proved some new Hadamard type inequalities, we will mention the following one:

    Theorem 1.2. (See [16]) Let f:[a,b]R be an n-polynomial convex function. If a<b and fL[a,b], then the following Hermite-Hadaamrd type inequalities hold:

    12(nn+2n1)f(a+b2)1babaf(x)dxf(a)+f(b)nns=1ss+1. (1.2)

    Since some of the convex function classes can be described on the basis of means, averages have an important place in convex function theory. In [3], Awan et al. gave the harmonic version on the n-polynomial convexity described on the basis of the arithmetic mean as follows. They have also proved several new integral inequalities of Hadamard type.

    Definition 1.3. (See [3]) Let nN and H(0,) be an interval. Then a nonnegative real-valued function f:H[0,) is said to be an n-polynomial harmonically convex function if

    f(xytx+(1t)y)1nns=1(1(1t)s)f(y)+1nns=1(1ts)f(x)

    for all x,yH and t[0,1].

    Theorem 1.3. (See [3]) Let f:[a,b](0,)[0,) be an n-polynomial harmonically convex function. Then one has

    12(nn+2n1)f(2aba+b)abbabaf(x)x2dxf(a)+f(b)nns=1ss+1 (1.3)

    if fL[a,b].

    The main motivation in this study is to give a new modification of (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex functions on the coordinates and to obtain Hadamard type inequalities via double integrals and by using Hö lder inequality along with a few properties of this new class of functions.

    In this section, we will give a new classes of convexity that will be called (m,n)-polynomial convex function as following.

    Definition 2.1. Let m,nN and Δ=[a,b]×[c,d] be a bidimensional interval. Then a non-negative real-valued function f:ΔR is said to be (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex function on Δ on the co-ordinates if the following inequality holds:

    f(xztz+(1t)x,ywsw+(1s)y)1nni=1(1(1t)i)1mmj=1(1(1s)j)f(x,y)+1nni=1(1(1t)i)1mmj=1(1sj)f(x,w)+1nni=1(1ti)1mmj=1(1(1s)j)f(z,y)+1nni=1(1ti)1mmj=1(1sj)f(z,w)

    where (x,y),(x,w),(z,y),(z,w)Δ and t,s[0,1].

    Remark 2.1. If one choose m=n=1, it is easy to see that the definition of (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex functions reduces to the class of the harmonically convex functions.

    Remark 2.2. The (2,2)-harmonically polynomial convex functions satisfy the following inequality;

    f(xztx+(1t)z,ywsz+(1s)w)3tt223ss22f(x,y)+3tt222ss22f(x,w)+2tt223ss22f(z,y)+2tt222ss22f(z,w)

    where (x,y),(x,w),(z,y),(z,w)Δ and t,s[0,1].

    Theorem 2.1. Assume that b>a>0,d>c>0,fα:[a,b]×[c,d][0,) be a family of the (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex functions on Δ and f(u,v)=supfα(u,v). Then, f is (m,n)- harmonically polynomial convex function on the coordinates if K={x,y[a,b]×[c,d]:f(x,y)<} is an interval.

    Proof. For t,s[0,1] and (x,y),(x,w),(z,y),(z,w)Δ, we can write

    f(xztz+(1t)x,ywsw+(1s)y)=supfα(xztz+(1t)x,ywsw+(1s)y)1nni=1(1(1t)i)1mmj=1(1(1s)j)supfα(x,y)+1nni=1(1(1t)i)1mmj=1(1sj)supfα(x,w)+1nni=1(1ti)1mmj=1(1(1s)j)supfα(z,y)+1nni=1(1ti)1mmj=1(1sj)supfα(z,w)=1nni=1(1(1t)i)1mmj=1(1(1s)j)f(x,y)+1nni=1(1(1t)i)1mmj=1(1sj)f(x,w)+1nni=1(1ti)1mmj=1(1(1s)j)f(z,y)+1nni=1(1ti)1mmj=1(1sj)f(z,w)

    which completes the proof.

    Lemma 2.1. Every (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex function on Δ is (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex function on the co-ordinates.

    Proof. Consider the function f:ΔR is (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex function on Δ. Then, the partial mapping fx:[c,d]R,fx(v)=f(x,v) is valid. We can write

    fx(vwtw+(1t)v)=f(x,vwtw+(1t)v)=f(x2tx+(1t)x,vwtw+(1t)v)1nni=1(1(1t)i)f(x,v)+1nni=1(1ti)f(x,w)=1nni=1(1(1t)i)fx(v)+1nni=1(1ti)fx(w)

    for all t[0,1] and v,w[c,d]. This shows the (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convexity of fx. By a similar argument, one can see the (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convexity of fy.

    Remark 2.3. Every (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex function on the co-ordinates may not be (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex function on Δ.

    A simple verification of the remark can be seen in the following example.

    Example 2.1. Let us consider f:[1,3]×[2,3][0,), given by f(x,y)=(x1)(y2). It is clear that f is harmonically polynomial convex on the coordinates but is not harmonically polynomial convex on [1,3]×[2,3], because if we choose (1,3),(2,3)[1,3]×[2,3] and t[0,1], we have

    RHSf(22t+(1t),93t+3(1t))=f(21t,3)=1+t1tLHS1nni=1(1(1t)i)f(1,3)+1nni=1(1ti)f(2,3)=0.

    Then, it is easy to see that

    f(22t+(1t),93t+3(1t))>1nni=1(1(1t)i)f(1,3)+1nni=1(1ti)f(2,3).

    This shows that f is not harmonically polynomial convex on [1,3]×[2,3].

    Now, we will establish associated Hadamard inequality for (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex functions on the co-ordinates.

    Theorem 2.2. Suppose that f:ΔR is (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex on the coordinates on Δ. Then, the following inequalities hold:

    14(mm+2m1)(nn+2n1)f(2aba+b,2cdc+d)14[(mm+2m1)abbabaf(x,2cdc+d)x2dx+(nn+2n1)cddcdcf(2aba+b,y)y2dy]abcd(ba)(dc)badcf(x,y)x2y2dxdy12[1n(cd(dc)dcf(a,y)y2dy+cd(dc)dcf(b,y)y2dy)ns=1ss+1+1m(ab(ba)baf(x,c)x2dx+ab(ba)baf(x,d)x2dx)mt=1tt+1](f(a,c)+f(a,d)+f(b,c)+f(b,d)nm)(ns=1ss+1mt=1tt+1). (2.1)

    Proof. Since f is (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex function on the co-ordinates, it follows that the mapping hx and hy are (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex functions. Therefore, by using the inequality (1.3) for the partial mappings, we can write

    12(mm+2m1)hx(2cdc+d)cddcdchx(y)y2dyhx(c)+hx(d)mms=1ss+1 (2.2)

    namely

    12(mm+2m1)f(x,2cdc+d)cddcdcf(x,y)y2dyf(x,c)+f(x,d)mns=1ss+1. (2.3)

    Dividing both sides of (2.2) by (ba)ab and by integrating the resulting inequality over [a,b], we have

    ab2(ba)(mm+2m1)baf(x,2cdc+d)dxabcd(ba)(dc)badcf(x,y)x2y2dydxabbaf(x,c)x2dx+abbaf(x,d)x2dxm(ba)ms=1ss+1. (2.4)

    By a similar argument for (2.3), but now for dividing both sides by (dc)cd and integrating over [c,d] and by using the mapping hy is (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex function, we get

    cd2(dc)(nn+2n1)dcf(2aba+b,y)y2dyabcd(ba)(dc)badcf(x,y)x2y2dydxcddcf(a,y)y2dy+cddcf(b,y)y2dyn(dc)nt=1tt+1. (2.5)

    By summing the inequalities (2.4) and (2.5) side by side, we obtain the second and third inequalities of (2.1). By the inequality (1.3), we also have:

    12(mm+2m1)f(2aba+b,2cdc+d)cddcdcf(2aba+b,y)y2dy

    and

    12(nn+2n1)f(2aba+b,2cdc+d)abbabaf(x,2cdc+d)x2dx

    which give by addition the first inequality of (2.1). Finally, by using the inequality (1.3), we obtain

    cddcdcf(a,y)y2dyf(a,c)+f(a,d)mns=1ss+1,
    cddcdcf(b,y)y2dyf(b,c)+f(b,d)mns=1ss+1,
    abbabaf(x,c)x2dxf(a,c)+f(b,c)nnt=1tt+1,

    and

    abbabaf(x,d)x2dxf(a,d)+f(b,d)nnt=1tt+1

    which give by addition the last inequality of (2.1).

    In order to prove our main findings, we need the following identity.

    Lemma 2.2. Assume that f:Δ=[a,b]×[c,d](0,)×(0,)R be a partial differentiable mapping on Δ and 2ftsL(Δ). Then, one has the following equality:

    Φ(f)=f(a,c)+f(b,c)+f(a,d)+f(b,d)4+abcd(ba)(dc)badcf(x,y)x2y2dxdy12[cddcdcf(a,y)y2dy+cddcdcf(b,y)y2dy+abbabaf(x,c)x2dx+abbabaf(x,d)x2dx]=abcd(ba)(dc)4×1010(12t)(12s)(AtBs)22fts(abAt,cdBs)dsdt

    where At=tb+(1t)a,Bs=sd+(1s)c.

    Theorem 2.3. Let f:Δ=[a,b]×[c,d](0,)×(0,)R be a partial differentiable mapping on Δ and 2ftsL(Δ). If |2fts|q is (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex function on Δ, then one has the following inequality:

    |Φ(f)|bd(ba)(dc)4ac(p+1)2p×[c1|2fts(a,c)|q+c2|2fts(a,d)|q+c3|2fts(b,c)|q+c4|2fts(b,d)|q]1q (2.6)

    where

    c1=1nni=1[2F1(2q,1;2;1ab)1i+1.2F1(2q,1;i+2;1ab)]×1mmj=1[2F1(2q,1;2;1cd)1j+1.2F1(2q,1;j+2;1cd)],
    c2=1nni=1[2F1(2q,1;2;1ab)1i+1.2F1(2q,1;i+2;1ab)]×1mmj=1[2F1(2q,1;2;1cd)1j+1.2F1(2q,j+1;j+2;1cd)],
    c3=1nni=1[2F1(2q,1;2;1ab)1i+1.2F1(2q,i+1;i+2;1ab)]×1mmj=1[2F1(2q,1;2;1cd)1j+1.2F1(2q,1;j+2;1cd)],
    c4=1nni=1[2F1(2q,1;2;1ab)1i+1.2F1(2q,i+1;i+2;1ab)]×1mmj=1[2F1(2q,1;2;1cd)1j+1.2F1(2q,j+1;j+2;1cd)],

    and At=tb+(1t)a,Bs=sd+(1s)c for fixed t,s[0,1],p,q>1 and p1+q1=1.

    Proof. By using the identity that is given in Lemma 2.2, we can write

    |Φ(f)|=abcd(ba)(dc)41010|(12t)||(12s)|(AtBs)2|2fts(abAt,cdBs)|dsdt

    By using the well known Hölder inequality for double integrals and by taking into account the definition of (m,n)-harmonically polynomial convex functions, we get

    |Φ(f)|abcd(ba)(dc)4(1010|12t|p|12s|pdtds)1p×(1010(AtBs)2q|2fts(abAt,cdBs)|qdtds)1qabcd(ba)(dc)4(1010(AtBs)2q×(1nni=1(1(1t)i)1mmj=1(1(1s)j)|2fts(a,c)|q+1nni=1(1(1t)i)1mmj=1(1sj)|2fts(a,d)|q+1nni=1(1ti)1mmj=1(1(1s)j)|2fts(b,c)|q+1nni=1(1ti)1mmj=1(1sj)|2fts(b,d)|q)dtds)1q

    By computing the above integrals, we can easily see the followings

    1010(AtBs)2q(1(1t)i)(1(1s)j)dtds=(ab)2q[2F1(2q,1;2;1ab)1i+1.2F1(2q,1;i+2;1ab)]×1mmj=1[2F1(2q,1;2;1cd)1j+1.2F1(2q,1;j+2;1cd)],
    1010(AtBs)2q(1(1t)i)(1sj)dtds=(ab)2q[2F1(2q,1;2;1ab)1i+1.2F1(2q,1;i+2;1ab)]×1mmj=1[2F1(2q,1;2;1cd)1j+1.2F1(2q,j+1;j+2;1cd)],
    1010(AtBs)2q(1ti)(1(1s)j)dtds=(ab)2q[2F1(2q,1;2;1ab)1i+1.2F1(2q,i+1;i+2;1ab)]×1mmj=1[2F1(2q,1;2;1cd)1j+1.2F1(2q,1;j+2;1cd)],

    and

    1010(AtBs)2q(1ti)(1sj)dtds=(ab)2q[2F1(2q,1;2;1ab)1i+1.2F1(2q,i+1;i+2;1ab)]×1mmj=1[2F1(2q,1;2;1cd)1j+1.2F1(2q,j+1;j+2;1cd)]

    where 2F1 is Hypergeometric function defined by

    2F1(2q,1;2;1ba)=1B(b,cb)10tb1(1t)cb1(1zt)adt,

    for c>b>0,|z|<1 and Beta function is defind as B(x,y)=10tx1(1t)y1dt,x,y>0. This completes the proof.

    Corollary 2.1. If we set m=n=1 in (2.6), we have the following new inequality.

    |Φ(f)|bd(ba)(dc)4ac(p+1)2p×[c11|2fts(a,c)|q+c22|2fts(a,d)|q+c33|2fts(b,c)|q+c44|2fts(b,d)|q]1q

    where

    c11=[2F1(2q,1;2;1ab)1i+1.2F1(2q,1;i+2;1ab)]×[2F1(2q,1;2;1cd)1j+1.2F1(2q,1;j+2;1cd)],
    c22=[2F1(2q,1;2;1ab)1i+1.2F1(2q,1;i+2;1ab)]×[2F1(2q,1;2;1cd)1j+1.2F1(2q,j+1;j+2;1cd)],
    c33=[2F1(2q,1;2;1ab)1i+1.2F1(2q,i+1;i+2;1ab)]×[2F1(2q,1;2;1cd)1j+1.2F1(2q,1;j+2;1cd)],
    c44=[2F1(2q,1;2;1ab)1i+1.2F1(2q,i+1;i+2;1ab)]×[2F1(2q,1;2;1cd)1j+1.2F1(2q,j+1;j+2;1cd)],

    Corollary 2.2. Suppose that all the conditions of Theorem 2.3 hold. If we set |2f(t,s)ts|q is bounded, i.e.,

    2f(t,s)ts=sup(t,s)(a,b)×(c,d)|2f(t,s)ts|q<,

    we get

    where c1,c2,c3,c4 as in Theorem 2.3.
