Variable exponent p(x)-Kirchhoff type problem with convection
2022
Abstract We study a nonlinear p ( x ) -Kirchhoff type problem with Dirichlet boundary condition, in the case of a reaction term depending also on the gradient (convection). Using a topological approach based on the Galerkin method, we discuss the existence of two notions of solutions: strong generalized solution and weak solution. Strengthening the bound on the Kirchhoff type term (positivity condition), we establish existence of weak solution, this time using the theory of operators of monotone type.
Multiple solutions with sign information for semilinear Neumann problems with convection
2019
We consider a semilinear Neumann problem with convection. We assume that the drift coefficient is indefinite. Using the theory of nonlinear operators of monotone type, together with truncation and comparison techniques and flow invariance arguments, we prove a multiplicity theorem producing three nontrivial smooth solutions (positive, negative and nodal).
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 Boundary Value Problems for ϕ-Laplacian on the Semi-Infinite Interval
2017
The Dirichlet problem and the problem with functional boundary condition for ϕ-Laplacian on the semi-infinite interval are studied as well as solutions between the lower and upper functions.
Minimizing total variation flow
2000
We prove existence and uniqueness of weak solutions for the minimizing total variation flow with initial data in $L^1$. We prove that the length of the level sets of the solution, i.e., the boundaries of the level sets, decreases with time, as one would expect, and the solution converges to the spatial average of the initial datum as $t \to \infty$. We also prove that local maxima strictly decrease with time; in particular, flat zones immediately decrease their level. We display some numerical experiments illustrating these facts.
Weakened acute type condition for tetrahedral triangulations and the discrete maximum principle
2000
We prove that a discrete maximum principle holds for continuous piecewise linear finite element approximations for the Poisson equation with the Dirichlet boundary condition also under a condition of the existence of some obtuse internal angles between faces of terahedra of triangulations of a given space domain. This result represents a weakened form of the acute type condition for the three-dimensional case.
Some qualitative properties for the total variation flow
2002
We prove the existence of a finite extinction time for the solutions of the Dirichlet problem for the total variation flow. For the Neumann problem, we prove that the solutions reach the average of its initial datum in finite time. The asymptotic profile of the solutions of the Dirichlet problem is also studied. It is shown that the profiles are nonzero solutions of an eigenvalue-type problem that seems to be unexplored in the previous literature. The propagation of the support is analyzed in the radial case showing a behaviour entirely different to the case of the problem associated with the p-Laplacian operator. Finally, the study of the radially symmetric case allows us to point out othe…
Sur les problèmes d'optimisation structurelle
2000
We discuss existence theorems for shape optimization and material distribution problems. The conditions that we impose on the unknown sets are continuity of the boundary, respectively a certain measurability hypothesis. peerReviewed
Branches of index-preserving solutions to systems of second order ODEs
2009
We investigate the existence of a continuum of index-preserving solutions to a Dirichlet problem associated with a parameter-dependent system of second order ordinary differential equations, developing a detailed analysis on the behaviour of the branches of nontrivial solutions. Our approach is based on the Rabinowitz global bifurcation Theorem combined with the notion of index and nullity of suitable linear boundary value problems. An application of the result to the study of branches of odd, periodic solutions for suitable systems of two linearly coupled pendulums of lenghts variables is also analyzed.
Generalized dirichlet problem in nonlinear potential theory
1990
The operator extending the classical solution of the Dirichlet problem for the quasilinear elliptic equation divA(x,▽u)=0 akin to thep-Laplace equation is shown to be unique providedA obeys a specific order principle. The Keldych lemma is also generalized to this nonlinear setting.
