Critical points in open sublevels and multiple solutions for parameter-depending quasilinear elliptic equations
2014
We investigate the existence of multiple nontrivial solutions of a quasilinear elliptic Dirichlet problem depending on a parameter $\lambda>0$ of the form $$ -\Delta_pu=\lambda f(u)\quad\mbox{in }\ \Omega,\quad u=0\quad\mbox{on }\ \partial\Omega, $$ where $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^N$ is a bounded domain, $\Delta_p$, $1 < p < +\infty$, is the $p$-Laplacian, and $f: \mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}$ is a continuous function satisfying a subcritical growth condition. More precisely, we establish a variational approach that when combined with differential inequality techniques, allows us to explicitly describe intervals for the parameter $\lambda$ for which the problem under consideration admits nontri…
The tusk condition and Petrovski criterion for the normalized $p\mspace{1mu}$-parabolic equation
2017
We study boundary regularity for the normalized $p\mspace{1mu}$-parabolic equation in arbitrary bounded domains. Effros and Kazdan (Indiana Univ. Math. J. 20 (1970), 683-693) showed that the so-called tusk condition guarantees regularity for the heat equation. We generalize this result to the normalized $p\mspace{1mu}$-parabolic equation, and also obtain H\"older continuity. The tusk condition is a parabolic version of the exterior cone condition. We also obtain a sharp Petrovski criterion for the regularity of the latest moment of a domain. This criterion implies that the regularity of a boundary point is affected if one side of the equation is multiplied by a constant.
