Multiplicity of solutions to a nonlinear boundary value problem of concave–convex type
2015
Abstract Problem (P) { − Δ p u + | u | p − 2 u = | u | r − 1 u x ∈ Ω | ∇ u | p − 2 ∂ u ∂ ν = λ | u | s − 1 u x ∈ ∂ Ω , where Ω ⊂ R N is a bounded smooth domain, ν is the unit outward normal at ∂ Ω , Δ p is the p -Laplacian operator and λ > 0 is a parameter, was studied in Sabina de Lis (2011) and Sabina de Lis and Segura de Leon (in press). Among other features, it was shown there that when exponents lie in the regime 1 s p r , a minimal positive solution exists if 0 λ ≤ Λ , for a certain finite Λ , while no positive solutions exist in the complementary range λ > Λ . Furthermore, in the radially symmetric case a second positive solution exists for λ varying in the same full range ( 0 , Λ ) …
Boundary correspondence of Nevanlinna counting functions for self-maps of the unit disc
2003
Let ϕ \phi be a holomorphic self-map of the unit disc D \mathbb {D} . For every α ∈ ∂ D \alpha \in \partial \mathbb {D} , there is a measure τ α \tau _\alpha on ∂ D \partial \mathbb {D} (sometimes called Aleksandrov measure) defined by the Poisson representation Re ( α + ϕ ( z ) ) / ( α − ϕ ( z ) ) = ∫ P ( z , ζ ) d τ α ( ζ ) \operatorname {Re}(\alpha +\phi (z))/(\alpha -\phi (z)) = \int P(z,\zeta ) \,d\tau _\alpha (\zeta ) . Its singular part σ α \sigma _\alpha measures in a natural way the “affinity” of ϕ \phi for the boundary value α \alpha . The affinity for values w w inside D \mathbb {D} is provided by the Nevanlinna counting function N ( w ) N(w) of ϕ \phi . We introduce a natural …
A priori bounds and multiplicity of solutions for an indefinite elliptic problem with critical growth in the gradient
2019
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^N$, $N \geq 2$, be a smooth bounded domain. We consider a boundary value problem of the form $$-\Delta u = c_{\lambda}(x) u + \mu(x) |\nabla u|^2 + h(x), \quad u \in H^1_0(\Omega)\cap L^{\infty}(\Omega)$$ where $c_{\lambda}$ depends on a parameter $\lambda \in \mathbb R$, the coefficients $c_{\lambda}$ and $h$ belong to $L^q(\Omega)$ with $q>N/2$ and $\mu \in L^{\infty}(\Omega)$. Under suitable assumptions, but without imposing a sign condition on any of these coefficients, we obtain an a priori upper bound on the solutions. Our proof relies on a new boundary weak Harnack inequality. This inequality, which is of independent interest, is established in the gener…
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 a generalisation of Krein's example
2017
We generalise a classical example given by Krein in 1953. We compute the difference of the resolvents and the difference of the spectral projections explicitly. We further give a full description of the unitary invariants, i.e., of the spectrum and the multiplicity. Moreover, we observe a link between the difference of the spectral projections and Hankel operators.
Two-way automata with multiplicity
2005
We introduce the notion of two-way automata with multiplicity in a semiring. Our main result is the extension of Rabin, Scott and Shepherdson's Theorem to this more general case. We in fact show that it holds in the case of automata with multiplicity in a commutative semiring, provided that an additional condition is satisfied. We prove that this condition is also necessary in a particular case. An application is given to zig-zag codes using special two-way automata.
ON THE COLENGTH OF A VARIETY OF LIE ALGEBRAS
1999
We study the variety of Lie algebras defined by the identity [Formula: see text] over a field of characteristic zero. We prove that, as in the associative case, in the nth cocharacter χn of this variety, every irreducible Sn-character appears with polynomially bounded multiplicity (not greater than n2). Anyway, surprisingly enough, we also show that the colength of this variety, i.e. the total number of irreducibles appearing in χn is asymptotically equal to [Formula: see text].
Weyl's Theorems and Extensions of Bounded Linear Operators
2012
A bounded operator $T\in L(X)$, $X$ a Banach space, is said to satisfy Weyl's theorem if the set of all spectral points that do not belong to the Weyl spectrum coincides with the set of all isolated points of the spectrum which are eigenvalues and having finite multiplicity. In this article we give sufficient conditions for which Weyl's theorem for an extension $\overline T$ of $T$ (respectively, for $T$) entails that Weyl's theorem holds for $T$ (respectively, for $\overline T$).
The deformation multiplicity of a map germ with respect to a Boardman symbol
2001
We define the deformation multiplicity of a map germ f: (Cn, 0) → (Cp, 0) with respect to a Boardman symbol i of codimension less than or equal to n and establish a geometrical interpretation of this number in terms of the set of Σi points that appear in a generic deformation of f. Moreover, this number is equal to the algebraic multiplicity of f with respect to i when the corresponding associated ring is Cohen-Macaulay. Finally, we study how algebraic multiplicity behaves with weighted homogeneous map germs.
Nonlinear scalar field equations with general nonlinearity
2018
Consider the nonlinear scalar field equation \begin{equation} \label{a1} -\Delta{u}= f(u)\quad\text{in}~\mathbb{R}^N,\qquad u\in H^1(\mathbb{R}^N), \end{equation} where $N\geq3$ and $f$ satisfies the general Berestycki-Lions conditions. We are interested in the existence of positive ground states, of nonradial solutions and in the multiplicity of radial and nonradial solutions. Very recently Mederski [30] made a major advance in that direction through the development, in an abstract setting, of a new critical point theory for constrained functionals. In this paper we propose an alternative, more elementary approach, which permits to recover Mederski's results on the scalar field equation. T…
