On the existence and the stability of solutions for higher-order semilinear Dirichlet problems

Marek Galewski, M. Płócienniczak (2007)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We investigate the existence and stability of solutions for higher-order two-point boundary value problems in case the differential operator is not necessarily positive definite, i.e. with superlinear nonlinearities. We write an abstract realization of the Dirichlet problem and provide abstract existence and stability results which are further applied to concrete problems.

On the existence of a generalized solution to a three-dimensional elliptic equation with radiation boundary condition

László Simon, Gisbert Stoyan (2001)

Applications of Mathematics

For a second order elliptic equation with a nonlinear radiation-type boundary condition on the surface of a three-dimensional domain, we prove existence of generalized solutions without explicit conditions (like u | Γ L 5 ( Γ ) ) on the trace of solutions. In the boundary condition, we admit polynomial growth of any fixed degree in the unknown solution, and the heat exchange and emissivity coefficients may vary along the radiating surface. Our generalized solution is contained in a Sobolev space with an exponent...

On the existence of five nontrivial solutions for resonant problems with p-Laplacian

Leszek Gasiński, Nikolaos S. Papageorgiou (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In this paper we study a nonlinear Dirichlet elliptic differential equation driven by the p-Laplacian and with a nonsmooth potential. The hypotheses on the nonsmooth potential allow resonance with respect to the principal eigenvalue λ₁ > 0 of ( - Δ , W 1 , p ( Z ) ) . We prove the existence of five nontrivial smooth solutions, two positive, two negative and the fifth nodal.

On the existence of multiple positive solutions for a certain class of elliptic problems

Aleksandra Orpel (2004)

Banach Center Publications

We investigate the existence of solutions for the Dirichlet problem including the generalized balance of a membrane equation. We present a duality theory and variational principle for this problem. As one of the consequences of the duality we obtain some numerical results which give a measure of a duality gap between the primal and dual functional for approximate solutions.
