Nonlinear Potential Theory and PDEs
1994
We consider equations like — div(∣∇u∣ p-2∇u) = µ, where µ is a nonnegative Radon measure and 1 < p < ∞. Results that relate the solution u and the measure µ are reviewed. A link between potential estimates and the boundary regularity of the Dirichlet problem is established.
Existence and uniqueness of a solution for a parabolic quasilinear problem for linear growth functionals with $L^1$ data
2002
We introduce a new concept of solution for the Dirichlet problem for quasilinear parabolic equations in divergent form for which the energy functional has linear growth. Using Kruzhkov's method of doubling variables both in space and time we prove uniqueness and a comparison principle in $L^1$ for these solutions. To prove the existence we use the nonlinear semigroup theory.
Elliptic equations having a singular quadratic gradient term and a changing sign datum
2012
In this paper we study a singular elliptic problem whose model is \begin{eqnarray*} - \Delta u= \frac{|\nabla u|^2}{|u|^\theta}+f(x), in \Omega\\ u = 0, on \partial \Omega; \end{eqnarray*} where $\theta\in (0,1)$ and $f \in L^m (\Omega)$, with $m\geq \frac{N}{2}$. We do not assume any sign condition on the lower order term, nor assume the datum $f$ has a constant sign. We carefully define the meaning of solution to this problem giving sense to the gradient term where $u=0$, and prove the existence of such a solution. We also discuss related questions as the existence of solutions when the datum $f$ is less regular or the boundedness of the solutions when the datum $f \in L^m (\Omega)$ with …
Weak Solutions for a (p(z), q(z))-Laplacian Dirichlet Problem
2020
We establish the existence of a nontrivial and nonnegative solution for a double phase Dirichlet problem driven by a (p(z); q(z))-Laplacian operator plus a potential term. Our approach is variational, but the reaction term f need not satisfy the usual in such cases Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition.
Nonlinear diffusion in transparent media: the resolvent equation
2017
Abstract We consider the partial differential equation u - f = div ( u m ∇ u | ∇ u | ) u-f=\operatornamewithlimits{div}\biggl{(}u^{m}\frac{\nabla u}{|\nabla u|}% \biggr{)} with f nonnegative and bounded and m ∈ ℝ {m\in\mathbb{R}} . We prove existence and uniqueness of solutions for both the Dirichlet problem (with bounded and nonnegative boundary datum) and the homogeneous Neumann problem. Solutions, which a priori belong to a space of truncated bounded variation functions, are shown to have zero jump part with respect to the ℋ N - 1 {{\mathcal{H}}^{N-1}} -Hausdorff measure. Results and proofs extend to more general nonlinearities.
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.
Existence and comparison results for a singular semilinear elliptic equation with a lower order term
2014
This paper deals with the homogeneous Dirichlet problem for a singular semilinear elliptic equation with a first order term. When the datum is bounded we prove an existence result and we show that any solution can be compared with the solution to a suitable symmetrized problem.
Dirichlet Forms, Poincaré Inequalities, and the Sobolev Spaces of Korevaar and Schoen
2004
We answer a question of Jost on the validity of Poincare inequalities for metric space-valued functions in a Dirichlet domain. We also investigate the relationship between Dirichlet domains and the Sobolev-type spaces introduced by Korevaar and Schoen.

On the best Lipschitz extension problem for a discrete distance and the discrete ∞-Laplacian
2012
Abstract This paper concerns the best Lipschitz extension problem for a discrete distance that counts the number of steps. We relate this absolutely minimizing Lipschitz extension with a discrete ∞-Laplacian problem, which arises as the dynamic programming formula for the value function of some e -tug-of-war games. As in the classical case, we obtain the absolutely minimizing Lipschitz extension of a datum f by taking the limit as p → ∞ in a nonlocal p -Laplacian problem.
