Convexity estimates for nonlinear elliptic equations and application to free boundary problems
On a Liouville type theorem for isotropic homogeneous fully nonlinear elliptic equations in dimension two
In this paper we establish a Liouville type theorem for fully nonlinear elliptic equations related to a conjecture of De Giorgi in . We prove that if the level lines of a solution have bounded curvature, then these level lines are straight lines. As a consequence, the solution is one-dimensional. The method also provides a result on free boundary problems of Serrin type.
Large time behaviour of solutions to nonhomogeneous diffusion equations
This note is devoted to the study of the long time behaviour of solutions to the heat and the porous medium equations in the presence of an external source term, using entropy methods and self-similar variables. Intermediate asymptotics and convergence results are shown using interpolation inequalities, Gagliardo-Nirenberg-Sobolev inequalities and Csiszár-Kullback type estimates.
General results on the eigenvalues of operators with gaps, arising from both ends of the gaps. Application to Dirac operators
This paper is concerned with an extension and reinterpretation of previous results on the variational characterization of eigenvalues in gaps of the essential spectrum of self-adjoint operators. We state two general abstract results on the existence of eigenvalues in the gap and a continuation principle. Then these results are applied to Dirac operators in order to characterize simultaneously eigenvalues corresponding to electronic and positronic bound states.
Lieb–Thirring inequalities with improved constants
Following Eden and Foias we obtain a matrix version of a generalised Sobolev inequality in one dimension. This allows us to improve on the known estimates of best constants in Lieb–Thirring inequalities for the sum of the negative eigenvalues for multidimensional Schrödinger operators.
The role of Onofri type inequalities in the symmetry properties of extremals for Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities, in two space dimensions
We first discuss a class of inequalities of Onofri type depending on a parameter, in the two-dimensional Euclidean space. The inequality holds for radial functions if the parameter is larger than . Without symmetry assumption, it holds if and only if the parameter is in the interval . The inequality gives us some insight on the symmetry breaking phenomenon for the extremal functions of the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality, in two space dimensions. In fact, for suitable sets of parameters (asymptotically...
Hardy-type estimates for Dirac operators
About a non-homogeneous Hardy-inequality and its relation with the spectrum of Dirac operators
A non-homogeneous Hardy-like inequality has recently been found to be closely related to the knowledge of the lowest eigenvalue of a large class of Dirac operators in the gap of their continuous spectrum.
