Positive solutions for a discrete two point nonlinear boundary value problem with p-Laplacian
2017
Abstract In the framework of variational methods, we use a two non-zero critical points theorem to obtain the existence of two positive solutions to Dirichlet boundary value problems for difference equations involving the discrete p -Laplacian operator.
On the Fučík spectrum of the p-Laplacian with no-flux boundary condition
2023
In this paper, we study the quasilinear elliptic problem \begin{align*} \begin{aligned} -\Delta_{p} u&= a\l(u^+\r)^{p-1}-b\l(u^-\r)^{p-1} \quad && \text{in } \Omega,\\ u & = \text{constant} &&\text{on } \partial\Omega,\\ 0&=\int_{\partial \Omega}\left|\nabla u\right|^{p-2}\nabla u\cdot \nu \,\diff \sigma,&& \end{aligned} \end{align*} where the operator is the $p$-Laplacian and the boundary condition is of type no-flux. In particular, we consider the Fu\v{c}\'{\i}k spectrum of the $p$-Laplacian with no-flux boundary condition which is defined as the set $\fucik$ of all pairs $(a,b)\in\R^2$ such that the problem above has a nontrivial solution. It turns out…
One-dimensional nonlinear boundary value problems with variable exponent
2018
In this paper, a class of nonlinear differential boundary value problems with variable exponent is investigated. The existence of at least one non-zero solution is established, without assuming on the nonlinear term any condition either at zero or at infinity. The approach is developed within the framework of the Orlicz-Sobolev spaces with variable exponent and it is based on a local minimum theorem for differentiable functions.
Stress concentration for closely located inclusions in nonlinear perfect conductivity problems
2019
We study the stress concentration, which is the gradient of the solution, when two smooth inclusions are closely located in a possibly anisotropic medium. The governing equation may be degenerate of $p-$Laplace type, with $1<p \leq N$. We prove optimal $L^\infty$ estimates for the blow-up of the gradient of the solution as the distance between the inclusions tends to zero.
Bounded weak solutions to superlinear Dirichlet double phase problems
2023
AbstractIn this paper we study a Dirichlet double phase problem with a parametric superlinear right-hand side that has subcritical growth. Under very general assumptions on the data, we prove the existence of at least two nontrivial bounded weak solutions to such problem by using variational methods and critical point theory. In contrast to other works we do not need to suppose the Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz condition.
Two positive solutions for a Dirichlet problem with the (p,q)‐Laplacian
2020
The aim of this paper is to prove the existence of two solutions for a nonlinear elliptic problem involving the (p,q) -Laplacian operator. The solutions are obtained by using variational methods and critical points theorems. The positivity of the solutions is shown by applying a generalized version of the strong maximum principle.
Nonlinear elliptic equations involving the p-Laplacian with mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions
2019
In this paper, a nonlinear differential problem involving the \(p\)-Laplacian operator with mixed boundary conditions is investigated. In particular, the existence of three non-zero solutions is established by requiring suitable behavior on the nonlinearity. Concrete examples illustrate the abstract results.
A sub-supersolution approach for Neumann boundary value problems with gradient dependence
2020
Abstract Existence and location of solutions to a Neumann problem driven by an nonhomogeneous differential operator and with gradient dependence are established developing a non-variational approach based on an adequate method of sub-supersolution. The abstract theorem is applied to prove the existence of finitely many positive solutions or even infinitely many positive solutions for a class of Neumann problems.
Gradient estimates for the perfect conductivity problem in anisotropic media
2018
Abstract We study the perfect conductivity problem when two perfectly conducting inclusions are closely located to each other in an anisotropic background medium. We establish optimal upper and lower gradient bounds for the solution in any dimension which characterize the singular behavior of the electric field as the distance between the inclusions goes to zero.
Infinitely many solutions to boundary value problem for fractional differential equations
2018
Variational methods and critical point theorems are used to discuss existence of infinitely many solutions to boundary value problem for fractional order differential equations where Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives and Caputo fractional derivatives are used. An example is given to illustrate our result.
Two Nontrivial Solutions for Robin Problems Driven by a p–Laplacian Operator
2020
By variational methods and critical point theorems, we show the existence of two nontrivial solutions for a nonlinear elliptic problem under Robin condition and when the nonlinearty satisfies the usual Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition.
Two non-zero solutions for Sturm–Liouville equations with mixed boundary conditions
2019
Abstract In this paper, we establish the existence of two non-zero solutions for a mixed boundary value problem with the Sturm–Liouville equation. The approach is based on a recent two critical point theorem.
A Sub-Supersolution Approach for Robin Boundary Value Problems with Full Gradient Dependence
2020
The paper investigates a nonlinear elliptic problem with a Robin boundary condition, which exhibits a convection term with full dependence on the solution and its gradient. A sub- supersolution approach is developed for this type of problems. The main result establishes the existence of a solution enclosed in the ordered interval formed by a sub-supersolution. The result is applied to find positive solutions.
Infinitely many solutions for a perturbed p-Laplacian boundary value problem with impulsive effects
2017
In this paper, we deal with the existence of weak solutions for a perturbed p-Laplacian boundary value problem with impulsive effects. More precisely, the existence of an exactly determined open interval of positive parameters for which the problem admits infinitely many weak solutions is established. Our proofs are based on variational methods.
