We introduce a weaker version of the polynomial Daugavet property: a Banach space X has the alternative polynomial Daugavet property (APDP) if every weakly compact polynomial P: X → X satisfies $ma{x}_{\omega \in }\left|\right|Id+\omega P\left|\right|=1+\left|\right|P\left|\right|$. We study the stability of the APDP by c₀-, ${\ell }_{\infty }$- and ℓ₁-sums of Banach spaces. As a consequence, we obtain examples of Banach spaces with the APDP, namely $L_{\infty }(\mu ,X)$ and C(K,X), where X has the APDP.

In this paper we are concerned with questions of multiplicity and concentration behavior of positive solutions of the elliptic problem $$\left(P_{}\right)\left\{\begin{array}{c}\hfill {ℒ}_{}u=f\left(u\right)\text{in}{ℝ}^3,\\ \hfill u\>0\text{in}{ℝ}^3,\\ \hfill u\in H^1\left({ℝ}^3\right),\end{array}\right.$$ ( P ε ) ℒ ε u = f ( u ) in IR 3 , u > 0 in IR 3 , u ∈ H 1 ( IR 3 ) , whereε is a small positive parameter, f : ℝ → ℝ is a continuous function, $${ℒ}_{}$$ ℒ ε is a nonlocal operator defined by $${ℒ}_{}u=M\left(\frac{1}{}{\int }_{{ℝ}^3}{\left|\nabla u\right|}^2+\frac{1}{{}^3}{\int }_{{ℝ}^3}V\left(x\right)u^2\right)\left[{-}^2\Delta u+V\left(x\right)u\right],$$ ℒ ε u = M 1 ε ∫ IR 3 | ∇ u | 2 + 1 ε 3 ∫ IR 3 V...

We prove a strong law of large numbers for a one-dimensional random walk in a dynamic random environment given by a supercritical contact process in equilibrium. The proof uses a coupling argument based on the observation that the random walk eventually gets trapped inside the union of space–time cones contained in the infection clusters generated by single infections. In the case where the local drifts of the random walk are smaller than the speed at which infection clusters grow, the random walk...

We deal with complete spacelike hypersurfaces immersed with constant mean curvature in a Lorentzian space form. Under the assumption that the support functions with respect to a fixed nonzero vector are linearly related, we prove that such a hypersurface must be either totally umbilical or isometric to a hyperbolic cylinder of the ambient space.

Our aim is to apply suitable generalized maximum principles in order to obtain characterization results concerning complete linear Weingarten hypersurfaces immersed in a locally symmetric Riemannian manifold, whose sectional curvature is supposed to obey standard constraints. In this setting, we establish sufficient conditions to guarantee that such a hypersurface must be either totally umbilical or an isoparametric hypersurface with two distinct principal curvatures one of which is simple.

The purpose of this article is to obtain sharp estimates for the first eigenvalue of the stability operator of constant mean curvature closed hypersurfaces immersed into locally symmetric Riemannian spaces satisfying suitable curvature conditions (which includes, in particular, a Riemannian space with constant sectional curvature). As an application, we derive a nonexistence result concerning strongly stable hypersurfaces in these ambient spaces.
