Two positive solutions for a Dirichlet problem with the (p,q)‐Laplacian
2020
The aim of this paper is to prove the existence of two solutions for a nonlinear elliptic problem involving the (p,q) -Laplacian operator. The solutions are obtained by using variational methods and critical points theorems. The positivity of the solutions is shown by applying a generalized version of the strong maximum principle.
Symmetrization for singular semilinear elliptic equations
2012
In this paper, we prove some comparison results for the solution to a Dirichlet problem associated with a singular elliptic equation and we study how the summability of such a solution varies depending on the summability of the datum f. © 2012 Fondazione Annali di Matematica Pura ed Applicata and Springer-Verlag.
On the solutions to 1-Laplacian equation with L1 data
2009
AbstractIn the present paper we study the behaviour, as p goes to 1, of the renormalized solutions to the problems(0.1){−div(|∇up|p−2∇up)=finΩ,up=0on∂Ω, where p>1, Ω is a bounded open set of RN (N⩾2) with Lipschitz boundary and f belongs to L1(Ω). We prove that these renormalized solutions pointwise converge, up to “subsequences,” to a function u. With a suitable definition of solution we also prove that u is a solution to a “limit problem.” Moreover we analyze the situation occurring when more regular data f are considered.
A weak comparison principle for solutions of very degenerate elliptic equations
2012
We prove a comparison principle for weak solutions of elliptic quasilinear equations in divergence form whose ellipticity constants degenerate at every point where \(\nabla u\in K\), where \(K\subset \mathbb{R }^N\) is a Borel set containing the origin.
On ( p ( x ), q ( x ))‐Laplace equations in ℝN without Ambrosetti‐Rabinowitz condition
2021
In the present work, we consider a (p(x), q(x))-elliptic equation describing the behavior of a double-phase anisotropic problem which has relevance in electrorheological fluid applications. The analysis leads to the existence of weak (nonnegative) solutions in the special case of potential terms with critical frequency and a superlinear reaction term. In order to prove the existence result, we combine critical point theory of mountain pass type with related topological and variational methods. Basically, the approach is variational, but we do not impose any Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz type condition for the superlinearity of the reaction. More specifically, we apply the Euler-Lagrange functional …

Uniqueness of positive radial solutions to singular critical growth quasilinear elliptic equations
2015
In this paper, we prove that there exists at most one positive radial weak solution to the following quasilinear elliptic equation with singular critical growth \[ \begin{cases} -\Delta_{p}u-{\displaystyle \frac{\mu}{|x|^{p}}|u|^{p-2}u}{\displaystyle =\frac{|u|^{\frac{(N-s)p}{N-p}-2}u}{|x|^{s}}}+\lambda|u|^{p-2}u & \text{in }B,\\ u=0 & \text{on }\partial B, \end{cases} \] where $B$ is an open finite ball in $\mathbb{R}^{N}$ centered at the origin, $1<p<N$, $-\infty<\mu<((N-p)/p)^{p}$, $0\le s<p$ and $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$. A related limiting problem is also considered.
A sub-supersolution approach for Neumann boundary value problems with gradient dependence
2020
Abstract Existence and location of solutions to a Neumann problem driven by an nonhomogeneous differential operator and with gradient dependence are established developing a non-variational approach based on an adequate method of sub-supersolution. The abstract theorem is applied to prove the existence of finitely many positive solutions or even infinitely many positive solutions for a class of Neumann problems.
Improved Hölder regularity for strongly elliptic PDEs
2019
We establish surprising improved Schauder regularity properties for solutions to the Leray-Lions divergence type equation in the plane. The results are achieved by studying the nonlinear Beltrami equation and making use of special new relations between these two equations. In particular, we show that solutions to an autonomous Beltrami equation enjoy a quantitative improved degree of H\"older regularity, higher than what is given by the classical exponent $1/K$.
Anisotropic elliptic equations with gradient-dependent lower order terms and L^1 data
2023
<abstract><p>We prove the existence of a weak solution for a general class of Dirichlet anisotropic elliptic problems such as $ \mathcal Au+\Phi(x, u, \nabla u) = \mathfrak{B}u+f $ in $ \Omega $, where $ \Omega $ is a bounded open subset of $ \mathbb R^N $ and $ f\in L^1(\Omega) $ is arbitrary. The principal part is a divergence-form nonlinear anisotropic operator $ \mathcal A $, the prototype of which is $ \mathcal A u = -\sum_{j = 1}^N \partial_j(|\partial_j u|^{p_j-2}\partial_j u) $ with $ p_j &gt; 1 $ for all $ 1\leq j\leq N $ and $ \sum_{j = 1}^N (1/p_j) &gt; 1 $. As a novelty in this paper, our lower order terms involve a new class of operators $ \mathfrak B $ such…
