Positive solutions for parametric singular Dirichlet (p,q)-equations
2020
We consider a nonlinear elliptic Dirichlet problem driven by the (p,q)-Laplacian and a reaction consisting of a parametric singular term plus a Caratheodory perturbation f(z,x) which is (p-1)-linear as x goes to + infinity. First we prove a bifurcation-type theorem describing in an exact way the changes in the set of positive solutions as the parameter lambda>0 moves. Subsequently, we focus on the solution multifunction and prove its continuity properties. Finally we prove the existence of a smallest (minimal) solution u*_lambda and investigate the monotonicity and continuity properties of the map lambda --> u*_lambda.
Parametric nonlinear singular Dirichlet problems
2019
Abstract We consider a nonlinear parametric Dirichlet problem driven by the p -Laplacian and a reaction which exhibits the competing effects of a singular term and of a resonant perturbation. Using variational methods together with suitable truncation and comparison techniques, we prove a bifurcation-type theorem describing the dependence on the parameter of the set of positive solutions.
Bifurcation phenomena for the positive solutions of semilinear elliptic problems with mixed boundary conditions
2016
We consider a parametric semilinear elliptic equation with a Cara-theodory reaction which exhibits competing nonlinearities. It is "concave" (sub-linear) near the origin and "convex" (superlinear) or linear near $+\infty$. Using variational methods based on the critical point theory, coupled with suitable truncation and comparison techniques, we prove a bifurcation-type theorem, describing the set of positive solutions as the parameter varies.
Positive and nodal solutions for nonlinear nonhomogeneous parametric neumann problems
2020
We consider a parametric Neumann problem driven by a nonlinear nonhomogeneous differential operator plus an indefinite potential term. The reaction term is superlinear but does not satisfy the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition. First we prove a bifurcation-type result describing in a precise way the dependence of the set of positive solutions on the parameter λ > 0. We also show the existence of a smallest positive solution. Similar results hold for the negative solutions and in this case we have a biggest negative solution. Finally using the extremal constant sign solutions we produce a smooth nodal solution.
