Multiplicity of Solutions to Elliptic Problems Involving the 1-Laplacian with a Critical Gradient Term

2017

Abstract In the present paper we study the Dirichlet problem for an equation involving the 1-Laplacian and a total variation term as reaction.We prove a strong multiplicity result. Namely, we show that for any positive Radon measure concentrated in a set away from the boundary and singular with respect to a certain capacity, there exists an unbounded solution, and measures supported on disjoint sets generate different solutions.These results can be viewed as the analogue for the 1-Laplacian operator of some known multiplicity results which were first obtained by Ireneo Peral, to whom this article is dedicated, and his collaborators.

Coupled fixed point theorems for multi-valued nonlinear contraction mappings in partially ordered metric spaces

2011

Abstract In this paper, we establish two coupled fixed point theorems for multi-valued nonlinear contraction mappings in partially ordered metric spaces. The theorems presented extend some results due to Ciric (2009) [3] . An example is given to illustrate the usability of our results.

Solutions and positive solutions for superlinear Robin problems

2019

We consider nonlinear, nonhomogeneous Robin problems with a (p − 1)-superlinear reaction term, which need not satisfy the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition. We look for positive solutions and prove existence and multiplicity theorems. For the particular case of the p-Laplacian, we prove existence results under a different geometry near the origin.We consider nonlinear, nonhomogeneous Robin problems with a (p − 1)-superlinear reaction term, which need not satisfy the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition.

A multiplicity theorem for parametric superlinear (p,q)-equations

2020

We consider a parametric nonlinear Robin problem driven by the sum of a \(p\)-Laplacian and of a \(q\)-Laplacian (\((p,q)\)-equation). The reaction term is \((p-1)\)-superlinear but need not satisfy the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition. Using variational tools, together with truncation and comparison techniques and critical groups, we show that for all small values of the parameter, the problem has at least five nontrivial smooth solutions, all with sign information.

$C^{1,��}$ regularity for the normalized $p$-Poisson problem

2017

We consider the normalized $p$-Poisson problem $$-��^N_p u=f \qquad \text{in}\quad ��.$$ The normalized $p$-Laplacian $��_p^{N}u:=|D u|^{2-p}��_p u$ is in non-divergence form and arises for example from stochastic games. We prove $C^{1,��}_{loc}$ regularity with nearly optimal $��$ for viscosity solutions of this problem. In the case $f\in L^{\infty}\cap C$ and $p>1$ we use methods both from viscosity and weak theory, whereas in the case $f\in L^q\cap C$, $q>\max(n,\frac p2,2)$, and $p>2$ we rely on the tools of nonlinear potential theory.

Algebraic dynamics in O*-algebras: a perturbative approach

2009

In this paper the problem of recovering an algebraic dynamics in a perturbative approach is discussed. The mathematical environment in which the physical problem is considered is that of algebras of unbounded operators endowed with the quasiuniform topology. After some remarks on the domain of the perturbation, conditions are given for the dynamics to exist as the limit of a net of regularized linear maps. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

Green’s function and existence of solutions for a third-order three-point boundary value problem

2019

The solutions of third-order three-point boundary value problem x‘‘‘ + f(t, x) = 0, t ∈ [a, b], x(a) = x‘(a) = 0, x(b) = kx(η), where η ∈ (a, b), k ∈ R, f ∈ C([a, b] × R, R) and f(t, 0) ≠ 0, are the subject of this investigation. In order to establish existence and uniqueness results for the solutions, attention is focused on applications of the corresponding Green’s function. As an application, also one example is given to illustrate the result. Keywords: Green’s function, nonlinear boundary value problems, three-point boundary conditions, existence and uniqueness of solutions.

Existence of a unique solution for a third-order boundary value problem with nonlocal conditions of integral type

2021

The existence of a unique solution for a third-order boundary value problem with integral condition is proved in several ways. The main tools in the proofs are the Banach fixed point theorem and the Rus’s fixed point theorem. To compare the applicability of the obtained results, some examples are considered.

ROS/Gazebo-Based Simulation of Quadcopter Aircrafts

2018

The main purpose of this work is to present a tutorial description on how to design and develop an observer, which is capable of estimating the position and the orientation of a drone commanded by a controller, whose shape and structure are unknown. Starting from Newton's and Euler's laws, a mathematical model describing the dynamics of a quadcopter has first been obtained. By linearizing this model it is possible to implement a Luenberger observer and validate it with simulations in a Linux environment, thanks to the use of the Ardupilot controller and the Gazebo simulator. Finally, starting from the results obtained from the simulation, it is possible to evaluate the error made in the est…
