Wave propagation in 1D elastic solids in presence of long-range central interactions
2011
Abstract In this paper wave propagation in non-local elastic solids is examined in the framework of the mechanically based non-local elasticity theory established by the author in previous papers. It is shown that such a model coincides with the well-known Kroner–Eringen integral model of non-local elasticity in unbounded domains. The appeal of the proposed model is that the mechanical boundary conditions may easily be imposed because the applied pressure at the boundaries of the solid must be equilibrated by the Cauchy stress. In fact, the long-range forces between different volume elements are modelled, in the body domain, as central body forces applied to the interacting elements. It is …
On the second-order regularity of solutions to the parabolic p-Laplace equation
2022
AbstractIn this paper, we study the second-order Sobolev regularity of solutions to the parabolic p-Laplace equation. For any p-parabolic function u, we show that $$D(\left| Du\right| ^{\frac{p-2+s}{2}}Du)$$ D ( D u p - 2 + s 2 D u ) exists as a function and belongs to $$L^{2}_{\text {loc}}$$ L loc 2 with $$s>-1$$ s > - 1 and $$1<p<\infty $$ 1 < p < ∞ . The range of s is sharp.
On Problems Driven by the (p(·) , q(·)) -Laplace Operator
2020
The aim of this paper is to prove the existence of at least one nontrivial weak solution for equations involving the (p(· ) , q(· ) ) -Laplace operator. The approach is variational and based on the critical point theory.
Nonlinear elliptic equations having a gradient term with natural growth
2006
Abstract In this paper, we study a class of nonlinear elliptic Dirichlet problems whose simplest model example is: (1) { − Δ p u = g ( u ) | ∇ u | p + f , in Ω , u = 0 , on ∂ Ω . Here Ω is a bounded open set in R N ( N ⩾ 2 ), Δ p denotes the so-called p-Laplace operator ( p > 1 ) and g is a continuous real function. Given f ∈ L m ( Ω ) ( m > 1 ), we study under which growth conditions on g problem (1) admits a solution. If m ⩾ N / p , we prove that there exists a solution under assumption (3) (see below), and that it is bounded when m > N p ; while if 1 m N / p and g satisfies the condition (4) below, we prove the existence of an unbounded generalized solution. Note that no smallness condit…
Equivalence of viscosity and weak solutions for a $p$-parabolic equation
2019
AbstractWe study the relationship of viscosity and weak solutions to the equation $$\begin{aligned} \smash {\partial _{t}u-\varDelta _{p}u=f(Du)}, \end{aligned}$$ ∂ t u - Δ p u = f ( D u ) , where $$p>1$$ p > 1 and $$f\in C({\mathbb {R}}^{N})$$ f ∈ C ( R N ) satisfies suitable assumptions. Our main result is that bounded viscosity supersolutions coincide with bounded lower semicontinuous weak supersolutions. Moreover, we prove the lower semicontinuity of weak supersolutions when $$p\ge 2$$ p ≥ 2 .
Landesman-Lazer type (p, q)-equations with Neumann condition
2020
We consider a Neumann problem driven by the (p, q)-Laplacian under the Landesman-Lazer type condition. Using the classical saddle point theorem and other classical results of the calculus of variations, we show that the problem has at least one nontrivial weak solution.
Walsh function analysis of 2-D generalized continuous systems
1990
The importance of the generalized or singular 2D continuous systems are demonstrated by showing their use in the solution of partial differential equations in two variables. A technique is presented for solving these systems in terms of Walsh functions. The method replaces the solution of a two-variable partial differential equation with the solution of a linear algebraic generalized 2D Sylvester equation. An efficient technique for the recursive solution of the latter equation is offered. All the results apply also in the usual Roesser 2D state-space case. >
First and second critical exponents for an inhomogeneous Schrödinger equation with combined nonlinearities
2022
AbstractWe study the large-time behavior of solutions for the inhomogeneous nonlinear Schrödinger equation $$\begin{aligned} iu_t+\Delta u=\lambda |u|^p+\mu |\nabla u|^q+w(x),\quad t>0,\, x\in {\mathbb {R}}^N, \end{aligned}$$ i u t + Δ u = λ | u | p + μ | ∇ u | q + w ( x ) , t > 0 , x ∈ R N , where $$N\ge 1$$ N ≥ 1 , $$p,q>1$$ p , q > 1 , $$\lambda ,\mu \in {\mathbb {C}}$$ λ , μ ∈ C , $$\lambda \ne 0$$ λ ≠ 0 , and $$u(0,\cdot ), w\in L^1_{\mathrm{loc}}({\mathbb {R}}^N,{\mathbb {C}})$$ u ( 0 , · ) , w ∈ L loc 1 ( R N , C ) . We consider both the cases where $$\mu =0$$ μ = 0 and $$\mu \ne 0$$ μ ≠ 0 , respectively. We establish existence/nonexistence of global weak solutions. In ea…
On the regularity of very weak solutions for linear elliptic equations in divergence form
2020
AbstractIn this paper we consider a linear elliptic equation in divergence form $$\begin{aligned} \sum _{i,j}D_j(a_{ij}(x)D_i u )=0 \quad \hbox {in } \Omega . \end{aligned}$$ ∑ i , j D j ( a ij ( x ) D i u ) = 0 in Ω . Assuming the coefficients $$a_{ij}$$ a ij in $$W^{1,n}(\Omega )$$ W 1 , n ( Ω ) with a modulus of continuity satisfying a certain Dini-type continuity condition, we prove that any very weak solution $$u\in L^{n'}_\mathrm{loc}(\Omega )$$ u ∈ L loc n ′ ( Ω ) of (0.1) is actually a weak solution in $$W^{1,2}_\mathrm{loc}(\Omega )$$ W loc 1 , 2 ( Ω ) .
On the critical behavior for time-fractional pseudo-parabolic type equations with combined nonlinearities
2022
AbstractWe are concerned with the existence and nonexistence of global weak solutions for a certain class of time-fractional inhomogeneous pseudo-parabolic-type equations involving a nonlinearity of the form $|u|^{p}+\iota |\nabla u|^{q}$ | u | p + ι | ∇ u | q , where $p,q>1$ p , q > 1 , and $\iota \geq 0$ ι ≥ 0 is a constant. The cases $\iota =0$ ι = 0 and $\iota >0$ ι > 0 are discussed separately. For each case, the critical exponent in the Fujita sense is obtained. We point out two interesting phenomena. First, the obtained critical exponents are independent of the fractional orders of the time derivative. Secondly, in the case $\iota >0$ ι > 0 , we show that the gradie…
