Constant sign and nodal solutions for nonlinear robin equations with locally defined source term
2020
We consider a parametric Robin problem driven by a nonlinear, nonhomogeneous differential operator which includes as special cases the p-Laplacian and the (p,q)-Laplacian. The source term is parametric and only locally defined (that is, in a neighborhood of zero). Using suitable cut-off techniques together with variational tools and comparison principles, we show that for all big values of the parameter, the problem has at least three nontrivial smooth solutions, all with sign information (positive, negative and nodal).
On a problem of L.A. Shemetkov on superradical formations of finite groups
2014
Abstract Subgroup-closed saturated formations F which are closed under taking products of F -subnormal F -subgroups are studied in the paper. Our results can be regarded as further developments in the hunt for a solution of a problem proposed by L.A. Shemetkov in 1999 in the Kourovka Notebook.
Nonlinear nonhomogeneous Neumann eigenvalue problems
2015
We consider a nonlinear parametric Neumann problem driven by a nonhomogeneous differential operator with a reaction which is $(p-1)$-superlinear near $\pm\infty$ and exhibits concave terms near zero. We show that for all small values of the parameter, the problem has at least five solutions, four of constant sign and the fifth nodal. We also show the existence of extremal constant sign solutions.
(p, 2)-Equations with a Crossing Nonlinearity and Concave Terms
2018
We consider a parametric Dirichlet problem driven by the sum of a p-Laplacian ($$p>2$$) and a Laplacian (a (p, 2)-equation). The reaction consists of an asymmetric $$(p-1)$$-linear term which is resonant as $$x \rightarrow - \infty $$, plus a concave term. However, in this case the concave term enters with a negative sign. Using variational tools together with suitable truncation techniques and Morse theory (critical groups), we show that when the parameter is small the problem has at least three nontrivial smooth solutions.
On minimal non-supersoluble groups
2007
[EN] The aim of this paper is to classify the finite minimal non-p-supersoluble groups, p a prime number, in the p-soluble universe.
Superlinear (p(z), q(z))-equations
2017
AbstractWe consider Dirichlet boundary value problems for equations involving the (p(z), q(z))-Laplacian operator in the principal part and prove the existence of one and three nontrivial weak solutions, respectively. Here, the nonlinearity in the reaction term is allowed to depend on the solution, but does not satisfy the Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz condition. The hypotheses on the reaction term ensure that the Euler–Lagrange functional, associated to the problem, satisfies both the -condition and a mountain pass geometry.
Multiple Solutions with Sign Information for a Class of Coercive (p, 2)-Equations
2019
We consider a nonlinear Dirichlet equation driven by the sum of a p-Laplacian and of a Laplacian (a (p, 2)-equation). The hypotheses on the reaction f(z, x) are minimal and make the energy (Euler) functional of the problem coercive. We prove two multiplicity theorems producing three and four nontrivial smooth solutions, respectively, all with sign information. We apply our multiplicity results to the particular case of a class of parametric (p, 2)-equations.
On finite minimal non-nilpotent groups
2005
[EN] A critical group for a class of groups X is a minimal non-X-group. The critical groups are determined for various classes of finite groups. As a consequence, a classification of the minimal non-nilpotent groups (also called Schmidt groups) is given, together with a complete proof of Gol¿fand¿s theorem on maximal Schmidt groups.
Pairs of solutions for Robin problems with an indefinite and unbounded potential, resonant at zero and infinity
2018
We consider a semilinear Robin problem driven by the Laplacian plus an indefinite and unbounded potential and a Caratheodory reaction term which is resonant both at zero and $$\pm \infty $$ . Using the Lyapunov–Schmidt reduction method and critical groups (Morse theory), we show that the problem has at least two nontrivial smooth solutions.
Multiple solutions for nonlinear nonhomogeneous resonant coercive problems
2018
We consider a nonlinear, nonhomogeneous Dirichlet problem driven by the sum of a \begin{document}$p$\end{document} -Laplacian ( \begin{document}$2 ) and a Laplacian. The reaction term is a Caratheodory function \begin{document}$f(z,x)$\end{document} which is resonant with respect to the principal eigenvalue of ( \begin{document}$-\Delta_p,\, W^{1,p}_0(\Omega)$\end{document} ). Using variational methods combined with truncation and comparison techniques and Morse theory (critical groups) we prove the existence of three nontrivial smooth solutions all with sign information and under three different conditions concerning the behavior of \begin{document}$f(z,\cdot)$\end{document} near zero.
