Optimal shape design and unilateral boundary value problems: Part II
2007
In the first part we give a general existence theorem and a regularization method for an optimal control problem where the control is a domain in R″ and where the system is governed by a state relation which includes differential equations as well as inequalities. In the second part applications for optimal shape design problems governed by the Dirichlet-Signorini boundary value problem are presented. Several numerical examples are included.
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.
The effects of convolution and gradient dependence on a parametric Dirichlet problem
2020
Our objective is to study a new type of Dirichlet boundary value problem consisting of a system of equations with parameters, where the reaction terms depend on both the solution and its gradient (i.e., they are convection terms) and incorporate the effects of convolutions. We present results on existence, uniqueness and dependence of solutions with respect to the parameters involving convolutions.
Existence of three solutions for a quasilinear two point boundary value problem
2002
In this paper we deal with the existence of at least three classical solutions for the following ordinary Dirichlet problem:¶¶ $ \left\{\begin{array}{ll} u'' + \lambda h(u')f(t,\:u) = 0\\ u(0) = u(1) = 0.\\\end{array}\right.\ $ ¶¶Our main tool is a recent three critical points theorem of B. Ricceri ([10]).
A Note on Riesz Bases of Eigenvectors of Certain Holomorphic Operator-Functions
2001
Abstract Operator-valued functions of the form A (λ) ≔ A − λ + Q(λ) with λ ↦ Q(λ)(A − μ)− 1 compact-valued and holomorphic on certain domains Ω ⊂ C are considered in separable Hilbert space. Assuming that the resolvent of A is compact, its eigenvalues are simple and the corresponding eigenvectors form a Riesz basis for H of finite defect, it is shown that under certain growth conditions on ‖Q(λ)(A − λ)− 1‖ the eigenvectors of A corresponding to a part of its spectrum also form a Riesz basis of finite defect. Applications are given to operator-valued functions of the form A (λ) = A − λ + B(λ − D)− 1C and to spectral problems in L2(0, 1) of the form −f″(x) + p(x, λ)f′(x) + q(x, λ)f(x) = λf(x…
Three solutions for a perturbed Dirichlet problem
2008
Abstract In this paper we prove the existence of at least three distinct solutions to the following perturbed Dirichlet problem: { − Δ u = f ( x , u ) + λ g ( x , u ) in Ω u = 0 on ∂ Ω , where Ω ⊂ R N is an open bounded set with smooth boundary ∂ Ω and λ ∈ R . Under very mild conditions on g and some assumptions on the behaviour of the potential of f at 0 and + ∞ , our result assures the existence of at least three distinct solutions to the above problem for λ small enough. Moreover such solutions belong to a ball of the space W 0 1 , 2 ( Ω ) centered in the origin and with radius not dependent on λ .

Positive solutions of Dirichlet and homoclinic type for a class of singular equations
2018
Abstract We study a nonlinear singular boundary value problem and prove that, depending on a relationship between exponents of power terms, the problem has either solutions of Dirichlet type or homoclinic solutions. We make use of shooting techniques and lower and upper solutions.
Multiple positive solutions for singularly perturbed elliptic problems in exterior domains
2003
Abstract The equation − e 2 Δ u + a e ( x ) u = u p −1 with boundary Dirichlet zero data is considered in an exterior domain Ω = R N ⧹ ω ( ω bounded and N ⩾2). Under the assumption that a e ⩾ a 0 >0 concentrates round a point of Ω as e →0, that p >2 and p N /( N −2) when N ⩾3, the existence of at least three positive distinct solutions is proved.
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.
