An elliptic equation with no monotonicity condition on the nonlinearity
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 extension of a multiplicity theorem by Ricceri with an application to a class of quasilinear equations
A recent multiplicity result by Ricceri, stated for equations in Hilbert spaces, is extended to a wider class of Banach spaces. Applications to nonlinear boundary value problems involving the p-Laplacian are presented.

Aubry sets and the differentiability of the minimal average action in codimension one
Let (x,u,∇u) be a Lagrangian periodic of period 1 in x1,...,xn,u. We shall study the non self intersecting functions u: RnR minimizing ; non self intersecting means that, if u(x0 + k) + j = u(x0) for some x0∈Rn and (k , j) ∈Zn × Z, then u(x) = u(x + k) + jx. Moser has shown that each of these functions is at finite distance from a plane u = ρx and thus has an average slope ρ; moreover, Senn has proven that it is possible to define the average action of u, which is usually called since...

Bernstein and De Giorgi type problems: new results via a geometric approach
We use a Poincaré type formula and level set analysis to detect one-dimensional symmetry of stable solutions of possibly degenerate or singular elliptic equations of the formOur setting is very general and, as particular cases, we obtain new proofs of a conjecture of De Giorgi for phase transitions in and and of the Bernstein problem on the flatness of minimal area graphs in . A one-dimensional symmetry result in the half-space is also obtained as a byproduct of our analysis. Our approach...

Cerami (C) Condition and Mountain Pass Theorem for Multivalued Mappings
Partially supported by Sapientia Foundation.We prove a general minimax result for multivalued mapping. As application, we give existence results of critical point of this mapping which satisfies the Cerami (C) condition.
Champs magnétiques et inégalités de Morse pour la -cohomologie
Nous démontrons des inégalités de Morse-Witten asymptotiques pour la dimension des groupes de cohomologie des puissances tensorielles d’un fibré holomorphe en droites hermitien au-dessus d’une variété - analytique compacte. La dimension du -ième groupe de cohomologie se trouve ainsi majorée par une intégrale de courbure intrinsèque, étendue à l’ensemble des points d’indice de la forme de courbure du fibré. La preuve repose sur un théorème spectral qui décrit la distribution asymptotique des...

Close cohomologous Morse forms with compact leaves
We study the topology of foliations of close cohomologous Morse forms (smooth closed 1-forms with non-degenerate singularities) on a smooth closed oriented manifold. We show that if a closed form has a compact leave , then any close cohomologous form has a compact leave close to . Then we prove that the set of Morse forms with compactifiable foliations (foliations with no locally dense leaves) is open in a cohomology class, and the number of homologically independent compact leaves does not decrease...
