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.
Existence of non-zero solutions for a Dirichlet problem driven by (p(x),q(x)-Laplacian
2021
The paper focuses on a Dirichlet problem driven by the (Formula presented.) -Laplacian. The existence of at least two non-zero solutions under suitable conditions on the nonlinear term is established. The approach is based on variational methods.
On Noncoercive (p, q)-Equations
2021
We consider a nonlinear Dirichlet problem driven by a (p, q)-Laplace differential operator (1 < q < p). The reaction is (p - 1)-linear near +/-infinity and the problem is noncoercive. Using variational tools and truncation and comparison techniques together with critical groups, we produce five nontrivial smooth solutions all with sign information and ordered. In the particular case when q = 2, we produce a second nodal solution for a total of six nontrivial smooth solutions all with sign information.
Nonlinear Diffusion in Transparent Media
2021
Abstract We consider a prototypical nonlinear parabolic equation whose flux has three distinguished features: it is nonlinear with respect to both the unknown and its gradient, it is homogeneous, and it depends only on the direction of the gradient. For such equation, we obtain existence and uniqueness of entropy solutions to the Dirichlet problem, the homogeneous Neumann problem, and the Cauchy problem. Qualitative properties of solutions, such as finite speed of propagation and the occurrence of waiting-time phenomena, with sharp bounds, are shown. We also discuss the formation of jump discontinuities both at the boundary of the solutions’ support and in the bulk.
Fixed point theory for 1-set contractive and pseudocontractive mappings
2013
The purpose of this paper is to study the existence and uniqueness of fixed point for a class of nonlinear mappings defined on a real Banach space, which, among others, contains the class of separate contractive mappings, as well as to see that an important class of 1-set contractions and of pseudocontractions falls into this type of nonlinear mappings. As a particular case, we give an iterative method to approach the fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping. Later on, we establish some fixed point results of Krasnoselskii type for the sum of two nonlinear mappings where one of them is either a 1-set contraction or a pseudocontraction and the another one is completely continuous, which extend …
When is the Haar measure a Pietsch measure for nonlinear mappings?
2012
We show that, as in the linear case, the normalized Haar measure on a compact topological group $G$ is a Pietsch measure for nonlinear summing mappings on closed translation invariant subspaces of $C(G)$. This answers a question posed to the authors by J. Diestel. We also show that our result applies to several well-studied classes of nonlinear summing mappings. In the final section some problems are proposed.
Random analysis of geometrically non-linear FE modelled structures under seismic actions
1990
Abstract In the framework of the finite element (FE) method, by using the “total Lagrangian approach”, the stochastic analysis of geometrically non-linear structures subjected to seismic inputs is performed. For this purpose the equations of motion are written with the non-linear contribution in an explicit representation, as pseudo-forces, and with the ground motion modelled as a filtered non-stationary white noise Gaussian process, using a Tajimi-Kanai-like filter. Then equations for the moments of the response are obtained by extending the classical Ito's rule to vectors of random processes. The equations of motion, and the equations for moments, obtained here, show a perfect formal simi…
A homotopy fixed point theorem in 0-complete partial metric space
2015
We generalize a result of Feng and Liu, on multi-valued contractive mappings, for studying the relationship between fixed point sets and homotopy fixed point sets. The presented results are discussed in the generalized setting of 0-complete partial metric spaces. An example and a nonlinear alternative of Leray-Schauder type are given to support our theorems.
Summability and estimates for polynomials and multilinear mappings
2008
Abstract In this paper we extend and generalize several known estimates for homogeneous polynomials and multilinear mappings on Banach spaces. Applying the theory of absolutely summing nonlinear mappings, we prove that estimates which are known for mappings on l p spaces in fact hold true for mappings on arbitrary Banach spaces.
Finite Groups with Only One NonLinear Irreducible Representation
2012
Let 𝕂 be an algebraically closed field. We classify the finite groups having exactly one irreducible 𝕂-representation of degree bigger than one. The case where the characteristic of 𝕂 is zero, was done by G. Seitz in 1968.
