Monotone iteration for infinite systems of parabolic equations with functional dependence

Anna Pudełko (2007)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We consider the initial value problem for an infinite system of differential-functional equations of parabolic type. General operators of parabolic type of second order with variable coefficients are considered and the system is weakly coupled. The solutions are obtained by the monotone iterative method. We prove theorems on weak partial differential-functional inequalities as well the existence and uniqueness theorems in the class of continuous bounded functions and in the class of functions satisfying...

Monotone operators. A survey directed to applications to differential equations

Jan Franců (1990)

Aplikace matematiky

The paper deals with the existence of solutions of the form A u = b with operators monotone in a broader sense, including pseudomonotone operators and operators satisfying conditions S and M . The first part of the paper which has a methodical character is concluded by the proof of an existence theorem for the equation on a reflexive separable Banach space with a bounded demicontinuous coercive operator satisfying condition ( M ) 0 . The second part which has a character of a survey compares various types of...

Monotone operators in divergence form with x -dependent multivalued graphs

Gilles Francfort, François Murat, Luc Tartar (2004)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

We prove the existence of solutions to - div a x , grad u = f , together with appropriate boundary conditions, whenever a x , e is a maximal monotone graph in e , for every fixed x . We propose an adequate setting for this problem, in particular as far as measurability is concerned. It consists in looking at the graph after a 45 rotation, for every fixed x ; in other words, the graph d a x , e is defined through d - e = φ x , d + e , where φ is a Carathéodory contraction in R N . This definition is shown to be equivalent to the fact that a ( x , ) is pointwise monotone...

Monotonicity and symmetry of solutions of p -Laplace equations, 1 < p < 2 , via the moving plane method

Lucio Damascelli, Filomena Pacella (1998)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We present some monotonicity and symmetry results for positive solutions of the equation - div D u p - 2 D u = f u satisfying an homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition in a bounded domain Ω . We assume 1 < p < 2 and f locally Lipschitz continuous and we do not require any hypothesis on the critical set of the solution. In particular we get that if Ω is a ball then the solutions are radially symmetric and strictly radially decreasing.
