Abstract
We study the existence of solutions for the boundary value problem −Δνy1(t) = f(y1(t + ν − 1), y2(t + μ − 1)), −Δμy2(t) = g(y1(t + ν − 1), y2(t + μ − 1)), y1(ν − 2) = Δy1(ν + b) = 0, y2(μ − 2) = Δy2(μ + b) = 0, where 1 < μ, ν ≤ 2, f, g : ℝ × ℝ → ℝ are continuous functions, b ∈ ℕ0. The existence of solutions to this problem is established by the Guo‐Krasnosel′kii theorem and the Schauder fixed‐point theorem, and some examples are given to illustrate the main results.
