Principal eigenvalue of a very badly degenerate operator and applications

2007

Abstract In this paper, we define and investigate the properties of the principal eigenvalue of the singular infinity Laplace operator Δ ∞ u = ( D 2 u D u | D u | ) ⋅ D u | D u | . This operator arises from the optimal Lipschitz extension problem and it plays the same fundamental role in the calculus of variations of L ∞ functionals as the usual Laplacian does in the calculus of variations of L 2 functionals. Our approach to the eigenvalue problem is based on the maximum principle and follows the outline of the celebrated work of Berestycki, Nirenberg and Varadhan [H. Berestycki, L. Nirenberg, S.R.S. Varadhan, The principal eigenvalue and maximum principle for second-order elliptic operator…

Hybrid coincidence and common fixed point theorems in Menger probabilistic metric spaces under a strict contractive condition with an application

2014

Abstract We prove some coincidence and common fixed point theorems for two hybrid pairs of mappings in Menger spaces satisfying a strict contractive condition. An illustrative example is given to support the genuineness of our extension besides deriving some related results. Then, we establish the corresponding common fixed point theorems in metric spaces. Finally, we utilize our main result to obtain the existence of a common solution for a system of Volterra type integral equations.

\( L^{1} \) existence and uniqueness results for quasi-linear elliptic equations with nonlinear boundary conditions

2007

Abstract In this paper we study the questions of existence and uniqueness of weak and entropy solutions for equations of type − div a ( x , D u ) + γ ( u ) ∋ ϕ , posed in an open bounded subset Ω of R N , with nonlinear boundary conditions of the form a ( x , D u ) ⋅ η + β ( u ) ∋ ψ . The nonlinear elliptic operator div a ( x , D u ) is modeled on the p-Laplacian operator Δ p ( u ) = div ( | D u | p − 2 D u ) , with p > 1 , γ and β are maximal monotone graphs in R 2 such that 0 ∈ γ ( 0 ) and 0 ∈ β ( 0 ) , and the data ϕ ∈ L 1 ( Ω ) and ψ ∈ L 1 ( ∂ Ω ) .

Banach spaces which are r-uniformly noncreasy

2003

Abstract We consider a family of spaces wider than UNC spaces introduced by Prus, and we give some fixed point results in the setting of these spaces.

On the Minimal Solution of the Problem of Primitives

2000

Abstract We characterize the primitives of the minimal extension of the Lebesgue integral which also integrates the derivatives of differentiable functions (called the C -integral). Then we prove that each BV function is a multiplier for the C -integral and that the product of a derivative and a BV function is a derivative modulo a Lebesgue integrable function having arbitrarily small L 1 -norm.

Asymptotic Behaviors of Solutions to quasilinear elliptic Equations with critical Sobolev growth and Hardy potential

2015

Abstract Optimal estimates on the asymptotic behaviors of weak solutions both at the origin and at the infinity are obtained to the following quasilinear elliptic equations − Δ p u − μ | x | p | u | p − 2 u = Q ( x ) | u | N p N − p − 2 u , x ∈ R N , where 1 p N , 0 ≤ μ ( ( N − p ) / p ) p and Q ∈ L ∞ ( R N ) .

Multiplicity theorems for the Dirichlet problem involving the p-Laplacian

2003

Multiplicity theorems for the Dirichlet problem involving the p-Laplacian were proved using variational approach. It was shown that there existed an open interval and a positive real number, and each problem admits at least three weak solutions. Results on the existence of at least three weak solutions for the Dirichlet problems were established.

2017

Abstract Using the moving plane method, we obtain a Liouville type theorem for nonnegative solutions of the Neumann problem { div ( y a ∇ u ( x , y ) ) = 0 , x ∈ R n , y > 0 , lim y → 0 + ⁡ y a u y ( x , y ) = − f ( u ( x , 0 ) ) , x ∈ R n , under general nonlinearity assumptions on the function f : R → R for any constant a ∈ ( − 1 , 1 ) .
