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.
Extremal solutions and strong relaxation for nonlinear multivalued systems with maximal monotone terms
2018
Abstract We consider differential systems in R N driven by a nonlinear nonhomogeneous second order differential operator, a maximal monotone term and a multivalued perturbation F ( t , u , u ′ ) . For periodic systems we prove the existence of extremal trajectories, that is solutions of the system in which F ( t , u , u ′ ) is replaced by ext F ( t , u , u ′ ) (= the extreme points of F ( t , u , u ′ ) ). For Dirichlet systems we show that the extremal trajectories approximate the solutions of the “convex” problem in the C 1 ( T , R N ) -norm (strong relaxation).
Geometry and analysis of Dirichlet forms (II)
2014
Abstract Given a regular, strongly local Dirichlet form E , under assumption that the lower bound of the Ricci curvature of Bakry–Emery, the local doubling and local Poincare inequalities are satisfied, we obtain that: (i) the intrinsic differential and distance structures of E coincide; (ii) the Cheeger energy functional Ch d E is a quadratic norm. This shows that (ii) is necessary for the Riemannian Ricci curvature defined by Ambrosio–Gigli–Savare to be bounded from below. This together with some recent results of Ambrosio–Gigli–Savare yields that the heat flow gives a gradient flow of Boltzman–Shannon entropy under the above assumptions. We also obtain an improvement on Kuwada's duality …
Radial solutions of Dirichlet problems with concave-convex nonlinearities
2011
Abstract We prove the existence of a double infinite sequence of radial solutions for a Dirichlet concave–convex problem associated with an elliptic equation in a ball of R n . We are interested in relaxing the classical positivity condition on the weights, by allowing the weights to vanish. The idea is to develop a topological method and to use the concept of rotation number. The solutions are characterized by their nodal properties.
The effects of convolution and gradient dependence on a parametric Dirichlet problem
2020
Our objective is to study a new type of Dirichlet boundary value problem consisting of a system of equations with parameters, where the reaction terms depend on both the solution and its gradient (i.e., they are convection terms) and incorporate the effects of convolutions. We present results on existence, uniqueness and dependence of solutions with respect to the parameters involving convolutions.
Positive solutions for parametric singular Dirichlet(p,q)-equations
2020
Abstract 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 → + ∞ . First we prove a bifurcation-type theorem describing in an exact way the changes in the set of positive solutions as the parameter λ > 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 λ ∗ and investigate the monotonicity and continuity properties of the map λ → u λ ∗ .
Positive solutions of Dirichlet and homoclinic type for a class of singular equations
2018
Abstract We study a nonlinear singular boundary value problem and prove that, depending on a relationship between exponents of power terms, the problem has either solutions of Dirichlet type or homoclinic solutions. We make use of shooting techniques and lower and upper solutions.
Multiple positive solutions for singularly perturbed elliptic problems in exterior domains
2003
Abstract The equation − e 2 Δ u + a e ( x ) u = u p −1 with boundary Dirichlet zero data is considered in an exterior domain Ω = R N ⧹ ω ( ω bounded and N ⩾2). Under the assumption that a e ⩾ a 0 >0 concentrates round a point of Ω as e →0, that p >2 and p N /( N −2) when N ⩾3, the existence of at least three positive distinct solutions is proved.
Multiple solutions for parametric double phase Dirichlet problems
2020
We consider a parametric double phase Dirichlet problem. Using variational tools together with suitable truncation and comparison techniques, we show that for all parametric values [Formula: see text] the problem has at least three nontrivial solutions, two of which have constant sign. Also, we identify the critical parameter [Formula: see text] precisely in terms of the spectrum of the [Formula: see text]-Laplacian.
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.
