The nonlinear versions of Sturm-Picone comparison theorem as well asLeighton's variational lemma and Leighton's theorem for regular and singular nonlinear impulsive differential equations with discontinuous solutions having fixed moments of impulse actions are established. Although discontinuity of the solutions causes some difficulties, these new comparison theorems cover the old ones where impulse effects are dropped.
The celebrated Sturm-Picone comparison theorem as well as the well known Leighton’s variational lemma and Leighton’s theorem, all of which are the fundamental tools of comparison and so, oscillation theory, are obtained for regular and singular nonlinear impulsive differential equations and related previous results in the literature are generalized to such equations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
