Abstract:

In this paper, we establish a general form of sum-difference inequality in two variables, which contains both a nonconstant term outside the sums and k terms of nonlinear sums. We employ a technique of monotonization and use a property of stronger monotonicity to give an estimate for the unknown function. Our result enables us to solve those discrete inequalities considered in the work of  Cheung W S (2006) and  Wang W S (2008). Furthermore, we apply our result to a boundary value problem of a partial difference equation for boundedness, uniqueness and continuous dependence.

Key words: Sum-difference inequality, Monotonization, Stronger nondecreasing, Boundedness
