Variational techniques for a system of Sturm–Liouville equations

In this article, we study a system of sixth order Sturm–Liouville equations with positive parameter λ\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\lambda $$\end{document}. By exploiting the variational method and critical point theory, we show that if the control parameter λ\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\lambda $$\end{document} is placed in an appropriate interval, our problem has one nontrivial weak solution. It should be noted that no symmetry assumption is used in the results.
