An elliptic equation with no monotonicity condition on the nonlinearity

Gregory S. Spradlin (2006)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

An elliptic PDE is studied which is a perturbation of an autonomous equation. The existence of a nontrivial solution is proven via variational methods. The domain of the equation is unbounded, which imposes a lack of compactness on the variational problem. In addition, a popular monotonicity condition on the nonlinearity is not assumed. In an earlier paper with this assumption, a solution was obtained using a simple application of topological (Brouwer) degree. Here, a more subtle degree...

An error analysis of the multi-configuration time-dependent Hartree method of quantum dynamics

Dajana Conte, Christian Lubich (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

This paper gives an error analysis of the multi-configuration time-dependent Hartree (MCTDH) method for the approximation of multi-particle time-dependent Schrödinger equations. The MCTDH method approximates the multivariate wave function by a linear combination of products of univariate functions and replaces the high-dimensional linear Schrödinger equation by a coupled system of ordinary differential equations and low-dimensional nonlinear partial differential equations. The main result of this...

An existence result for minimal spheres in manifolds boundary

Edi Rosset (1990)

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

We prove the existence of a not homotopically trivial minimal sphere in a 3-manifold with boundary, obtained by deleting an open connected subset from a compact Riemannian oriented 3-manifold with boundary, having trivial second homotopy group.
