Fractional Hardy-Sobolev type inequalities for half spaces and John domains
2018
As our main result we prove a variant of the fractional Hardy-Sobolev-Maz'ya inequality for half spaces. This result contains a complete answer to a recent open question by Musina and Nazarov. In the proof we apply a new version of the fractional Hardy-Sobolev inequality that we establish also for more general unbounded John domains than half spaces.
Asymptotic Equivalence of Difference Equations in Banach Space
2014
Conjugacy technique is applied to analysis asymptotic equivalence of nonautonomous linear and semilinear difference equations in Banach space.
Critical points for nondifferentiable functions in presence of splitting
2006
A classical critical point theorem in presence of splitting established by Brézis-Nirenberg is extended to functionals which are the sum of a locally Lipschitz continuous term and of a convex, proper, lower semicontinuous function. The obtained result is then exploited to prove a multiplicity theorem for a family of elliptic variational-hemivariational eigenvalue problems. © 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
Spatial Besov regularity for stochastic partial differential equations on Lipschitz domains
2010
We use the scale of Besov spaces B^\alpha_{\tau,\tau}(O), \alpha>0, 1/\tau=\alpha/d+1/p, p fixed, to study the spatial regularity of the solutions of linear parabolic stochastic partial differential equations on bounded Lipschitz domains O\subset R^d. The Besov smoothness determines the order of convergence that can be achieved by nonlinear approximation schemes. The proofs are based on a combination of weighted Sobolev estimates and characterizations of Besov spaces by wavelet expansions.
Nonlinear Robin problems with unilateral constraints and dependence on the gradient
2018
We consider a nonlinear Robin problem driven by the p-Laplacian, with unilateral constraints and a reaction term depending also on the gradient (convection term). Using a topological approach based on fixed point theory (the Leray-Schauder alternative principle) and approximating the original problem using the Moreau-Yosida approximations of the subdifferential term, we prove the existence of a smooth solution.
Blow-up of the non-equivariant 2+1 dimensional wave map
2014
It has been known for a long time that the equivariant 2+1 wave map into the 2-sphere blows up if the initial data are chosen appropriately. Here, we present numerical evidence for the stability of the blow-up phenomenon under explicit violations of equivariance.
Control of essential supremum of solutions of quasilinear degenerate parabolic equations
2001
Sufficient conditions are obtained so that a weak subsolution of a class of quasilinear degenerate parabolic equations, bounded from above on theparabolic boundary of the cylinder Q, turns out to be bounded from above in Q.
The ∞-Eigenvalue Problem
1999
. The Euler‐Lagrange equation of the nonlinear Rayleigh quotient \( \left(\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^{p}\,dx\right) \bigg/ \left(\int_{\Omega}|u|^{p}\,dx\right)\) is \( -\div\left( |\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u \right)= \Lambda_{p}^{p} |u |^{p-2}u,\) where \(\Lambda_{p}^{p}\) is the minimum value of the quotient. The limit as \(p\to\infty\) of these equations is found to be \(\max \left\{ \Lambda_{\infty}-\frac{|\nabla u(x)|}{u(x)},\ \ \Delta_{\infty}u(x)\right\}=0,\) where the constant \(\Lambda_{\infty}=\lim_{p\to\infty}\Lambda_{p}\) is the reciprocal of the maximum of the distance to the boundary of the domain Ω.
A numerical study of the small dispersion limit of the Korteweg-de Vries equation and asymptotic solutions
2012
Abstract We study numerically the small dispersion limit for the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation u t + 6 u u x + ϵ 2 u x x x = 0 for ϵ ≪ 1 and give a quantitative comparison of the numerical solution with various asymptotic formulae for small ϵ in the whole ( x , t ) -plane. The matching of the asymptotic solutions is studied numerically.
Optimal control for state constrained two-phase Stefan problems
1991
We give a new approach to state constrained control problems associated to non-degenerate nonlinear parabolic equations of Stefan type. We obtain uniform estimates for the violation of the constraints.
