Characterization of ellipsoids through an overdetermined boundary value problem of Monge–Ampère type
2014
Abstract The study of the optimal constant in an Hessian-type Sobolev inequality leads to a fully nonlinear boundary value problem, overdetermined with non-standard boundary conditions. We show that all the solutions have ellipsoidal symmetry. In the proof we use the maximum principle applied to a suitable auxiliary function in conjunction with an entropy estimate from affine curvature flow.
Limits of Sobolev homeomorphisms
2017
Let X; Y subset of R-2 be topologically equivalent bounded Lipschitz domains. We prove that weak and strong limits of homeomorphisms h: X (onto)-> Y in the Sobolev space W-1,W-p (X, R-2), p >= 2; are the same. As an application, we establish the existence of 2D-traction free minimal deformations for fairly general energy integrals. Peer reviewed
Elliptic problems with convection terms in Orlicz spaces
2021
Abstract The existence of a solution to a Dirichlet problem, for a class of nonlinear elliptic equations, with a convection term, is established. The main novelties of the paper stand on general growth conditions on the gradient variable, and on minimal assumptions on Ω. The approach is based on the method of sub and supersolutions. The solution is a zero of an auxiliary pseudomonotone operator build via truncation techniques. We present also some examples in which we highlight the generality of our growth conditions.
Multiple solutions for parametric double phase Dirichlet problems
2020
We consider a parametric double phase Dirichlet problem. Using variational tools together with suitable truncation and comparison techniques, we show that for all parametric values [Formula: see text] the problem has at least three nontrivial solutions, two of which have constant sign. Also, we identify the critical parameter [Formula: see text] precisely in terms of the spectrum of the [Formula: see text]-Laplacian.
Three solutions to mixed boundary value problem driven by p(z)-Laplace operator
2021
We prove the existence of at least three weak solutions to a mixed Dirichlet–Neumann boundary value problem for equations driven by the p(z)-Laplace operator in the principal part. Our approach is variational and use three critical points theorems.
Absolutely continuous functions with values in a Banach space
2017
Abstract Let Ω be an open subset of R n , n > 1 , and let X be a Banach space. We prove that α-absolutely continuous functions f : Ω → X are continuous and differentiable (in some sense) almost everywhere in Ω.
Characterizations of Orlicz-Sobolev Spaces by Means of Generalized Orlicz-Poincaré Inequalities
2012
Let Φ be anN-function. We show that a functionu∈LΦ(ℝn)belongs to the Orlicz-Sobolev spaceW1,Φ(ℝn)if and only if it satisfies the (generalized) Φ-Poincaré inequality. Under more restrictive assumptions on Φ, an analog of the result holds in a general metric measure space setting.
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.
Generalized Lebesgue points for Sobolev functions
2017
In this article, we show that a function $f\in M^{s,p}(X),$ $0<s\leq 1,$ $0<p<1,$ where $X$ is a doubling metric measure space, has generalized Lebesgue points outside a set of $\mathcal{H}^h$-Hausdorff measure zero for a suitable gauge function $h.$
Sobolev embeddings, extensions and measure density condition
2008
AbstractThere are two main results in the paper. In the first one, Theorem 1, we prove that if the Sobolev embedding theorem holds in Ω, in any of all the possible cases, then Ω satisfies the measure density condition. The second main result, Theorem 5, provides several characterizations of the Wm,p-extension domains for 1<p<∞. As a corollary we prove that the property of being a W1,p-extension domain, 1<p⩽∞, is invariant under bi-Lipschitz mappings, Theorem 8.
