Abstract

Without the usual assumption of monotonicity, we establish some results on the theory of hyperbolic differential inequalities which enable us to produce a majorising interval function for the solution of the hyperbolic initial value problem. Using this function, a variation of parameters formula and interval iterative technique, the existence of solution to the problem is established.

  • In this paper, we utilize interval analytic methods in the investigation of the existence of solution of the hyperbolic partial differential equation ( ) = zxy f x, y, z, zx, zy,( x, y) ∈ Iab (1.1)with characteristic initial values= z ( x, 0) σ ( x); x ∈ Ia. = z (0, y) τ ( y); y ∈ Ib.

Summary

Introduction

Similar interval methods had earlier been used by some authors in [3]-[7] for solution to differential equation but not for hyperbolic initial value problems. ( ) Definition 2.1: A function v ∈ C1,2 Ia,b , is said to be an upper solution of the hyperbolic initial value problem (1.1) and (1.2) on Iab if ( ) Definition 2.2: A function u ∈ C1,2 Ia,b , is said to be a lower solution of the hyperbolic initial value problem (1.1) and (1.2) on Iab if the reversed inequalities hold true with u in place of v in the specified intervals.
