Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

We consider the two-point boundary value problems for a nonlinear one-dimensional second-order differential equation with involution in the second derivative and in lower terms. The questions of existence and uniqueness of the classical solution of two-point boundary value problems are studied. The definition of the Green's function is generalized for the case of boundary value problems for the second-order linear differential equation with involution, indicating the points of discontinuities and the magnitude of discontinuities of the first derivative. Uniform estimates for the Green's function of the linear part of boundary value problems are established. Using the contraction mapping principle and the Schauder fixed point theorem, theorems on the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the boundary value problems are proved. The results obtained in this paper cover the boundary value problems for one-dimensional differential equations with and without involution in the lower terms.
