This paper is concerned with the Hölder regularity of viscosity solutions of second-order, fully non-linear elliptic integro-differential equations. Our results rely on two key ingredients: first we assume that, at each point of the domain, either the equation is strictly elliptic in the classical fully non-linear sense, or (and this is the most original part of our work) the equation is strictly elliptic in a non-local non-linear sense we make precise. Next we impose some regularity and growth...

We study the asymptotic behaviour of the following nonlinear problem: $$\{\begin{array}{c}-\mathrm{div}\left(a\left(D{u}_h\right)\right)+{\left|u_h\right|}^{p-2}{u}_h=f\text{in}{\Omega }_h,a\left(D{u}_h\right)·\nu =0\text{on}\partial {\Omega }_h,\hfill \end{array}.$$ in a domain Ωh of ${ℝ}^n$ whose boundary ∂Ωh contains an oscillating part with respect to h when h tends to ∞. The oscillating boundary is defined by a set of cylinders with axis 0xn that are h-1-periodically distributed. We prove that the limit problem in the domain corresponding to the oscillating boundary identifies with a diffusion operator with respect to xn coupled with an algebraic problem for the limit fluxes.

We investigate the asymptotic behaviour, as $\epsilon \to 0$, of a class of monotone nonlinear Neumann problems, with growth $p-1$ ($p\in ]1,+\infty [$), on a bounded multidomain ${\Omega }_{\epsilon }\subset {ℝ}^N$$(N\ge 2)$. The multidomain...

We investigate the asymptotic behaviour, as ε → 0, of a class of monotone nonlinear Neumann problems, with growth p-1 (p ∈]1, +∞[), on a bounded multidomain ${\Omega }_{\epsilon }\subset {ℝ}^N$ (N ≥ 2). The multidomain ΩE is composed of two domains. The first one is a plate which becomes asymptotically flat, with thickness hE in the xN direction, as ε → 0. The second one is a “forest" of cylinders distributed with ε-periodicity in the first N - 1 directions on the upper side of the plate. Each cylinder has a small...

Questo articolo considera una successione di equazioni differenziali a derivate parziali non lineari in forma di divergenza del tipo $$-\text{div}\left(Q^{ϵ}G\left(x,N^{ϵ}\nabla u\right)\right)=f^{ϵ},$$ in un dominio limitato $\mathrm{\Omega }$ dello spazio $n$-dimensionale; $Q^{ϵ}=Q^{ϵ}\left(x\right)$ e $N^{ϵ}=N^{ϵ}\left(x\right)$ sono matrici con coefficenti limitati, $N^{ϵ}$ e è invertibile e la sua matrice inversa $R^{ϵ}$ ha anche coefficenti limitati. La non linearità è dovuta alla funzione $G=G\left(x,\xi \right)$; la condizione di crescita, la monotonicità e le ipotesi di coercitività sono modellate sul $p$-Laplaciano, $1<p<\mathrm{\infty }$, ed assicurano l'esistenza di una soluzione...

We derive estimates for various quantities which are of interest in the analysis of the Ginzburg-Landau equation, and which we bound in terms of the $GL$-energy $E_{\epsilon }$ and the parameter $\epsilon$. These estimates are local in nature, and in particular independent of any boundary condition. Most of them improve and extend earlier results on the subject.

We present two results on existence of infinitely many positive solutions to the Neumann problem ⎧ $-{\Delta }_{p}u+\lambda \left(x\right){\left|u\right|}^{p-2}u=\mu f(x,u)$ in Ω, ⎨ ⎩ ∂u/∂ν = 0 on ∂Ω, where $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^N$ is a bounded open set with sufficiently smooth boundary ∂Ω, ν is the outer unit normal vector to ∂Ω, p > 1, μ > 0, $\lambda \in L^{\infty }\left(\Omega \right)$ with $essin{f}_{x\in \Omega }\lambda \left(x\right)>0$ and f: Ω × ℝ → ℝ is a Carathéodory function. Our results ensure the existence of a sequence of nonzero and nonnegative weak solutions to the above problem.

Si considera una classe di equazioni ellittiche semilineari su ${\mathbb{R}}^N$ della forma $-\mathrm{\Delta }u+u=a\left(x\right){\left|u\right|}^{p-1}u$ con $p>1$ sottocritico (o con nonlinearità più generali) e $a\left(x\right)$ funzione limitata. In questo articolo viene presentato un risultato di genericità sull'esistenza di infinite soluzioni, rispetto alla classe di coefficienti $a\left(x\right)$ limitati su ${\mathbb{R}}^N$ e non negativi all'infinito.
