Abstract

The chapter continues the study of the second order Dirichlet boundary value problem

$$\begin{aligned} z''(t)&= f(t,z(t)) \quad \text {for a.e. } t \in [0,T]\subset \mathbb {R}, \nonumber \\ z'(t+) - z'(t-)&= M_i(t,z(t)), \quad t = \gamma _i(z(t)), \quad i = 1,\ldots ,p,\nonumber \\&z(0) = 0, \quad z(T) = 0, \nonumber \end{aligned}$$

but now, in contrast to Chap. 6, the problem is subject to p state-dependent impulse conditions, where \(p \in \mathbb {N}\). The solvability of this problem is proved under the assumption that there exists a well-ordered couple of lower and upper functions to the corresponding Dirichlet problem without impulses. The main result is contained in the existence theorem which can be applied to problems that are not covered by the existence theorem of Chap. 6 even in the case \(p=1\).
