Abstract
In this paper, our main purpose is to prove the existence of the first eigenvalue for the polyharmonic operator with Navier boundary conditions. In addition, the corresponding eigenfunction is demonstrated to be positive. As an application, we will discuss a necessary condition for the existence of positive solutions to some polyharmonic problems on the first eigenvalue.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of Applied Mathematics Letters is to provide a means of rapid publication for important but brief applied mathematical papers. The brief descriptions of any work involving a novel application or utilization of mathematics, or a development in the methodology of applied mathematics is a potential contribution for this journal. This journal''s focus is on applied mathematics topics based on differential equations and linear algebra. Priority will be given to submissions that are likely to appeal to a wide audience.
