New fixed point approach for a fully nonlinear fourth order boundary value problem

Résumé

In this paper we propose a method for investigating the solvability and iterative solution of a nonlinear fully fourth order boundary value problem. Namely, by the reduction of the problem to an operator equation for the right-hand side function we establish the existence and uniqueness of a solution and the convergence of an iterative process. Our method completely differs from the methods of other authors and does not require the condition of boundedness or linear growth of the right-hand side function on infinity. Many examples, where exact solutions of the problems are known or not, demonstrate the effectiveness of the obtained theoretical results.
