Abstract

The first part of this paper considers the problem of solving an equation of the form F(x,y) = 0, for y = φ(x) as a function of x, where F : X x Y → Z is a smooth nonlinear mapping between Banach spaces. The focus is on the case in which the mapping F is degenerate at some point (x^*; y^*) with respect to y, i.e., when F' _y (x^*; y^*), the derivative of F with respect to y, is not invertible and, hence, the classical Implicit Function Theorem is not applicable. We present pth-order generalizations of the Implicit Function Theorem for this case. The second part of the paper uses these pth-order implicit function theorems to derive sufficient conditions for the existence of a solution of degenerate nonlinear boundary-value problems for second-order ordinary differential equations in cases close to resonance. The last part of the paper presents a modified perturbation method for solving degenerate second-order boundary value problems with a small parameter. The results of this paper are based on the constructions of p-regularity theory, whose basic concepts and main results are given in the paper Factor-analysis of nonlinear mappings: p- regularity theory by Tret'yakov and Marsden (Communications on Pure and Applied Analysis, 2 (2003), 425-445).
