An application of eigenfunctions of p -Laplacians to domain separation

Herbert Gajewski (2001)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We are interested in algorithms for constructing surfaces Γ of possibly small measure that separate a given domain Ω into two regions of equal measure. Using the integral formula for the total gradient variation, we show that such separators can be constructed approximatively by means of sign changing eigenfunctions of the p -Laplacians, p → 1 , under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. These eigenfunctions turn out to be limits of steepest descent methods applied to suitable norm quotients. ...

Symmetry breaking in the minimization of the first eigenvalue for the composite clamped punctured disk

Claudia Anedda, Fabrizio Cuccu (2015)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let D₀=x∈ ℝ²: 0<|x|<1 be the unit punctured disk. We consider the first eigenvalue λ₁(ρ ) of the problem Δ² u =λ ρ u in D₀ with Dirichlet boundary condition, where ρ is an arbitrary function that takes only two given values 0 < α < β and is subject to the constraint ∫ D ₀ ρ d x = α γ + β ( | D ₀ | - γ ) for a fixed 0 < γ < |D₀|. We will be concerned with the minimization problem ρ ↦ λ₁(ρ). We show that, under suitable conditions on α, β and γ, the minimizer does not inherit the radial symmetry of the...

Eigenvalue asymptotics for Neumann Laplacian in domains with ultra-thin cusps

Victor Ivrii (1998-1999)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

Asymptotics with sharp remainder estimates are recovered for number N ( τ ) of eigenvalues of the generalized Maxwell problem and for related Laplacians which are similar to Neumann Laplacian. We consider domains with ultra-thin cusps (with exp ( - | x | m + 1 ) width ; m &gt; 0 ) and recover eigenvalue asymptotics with sharp remainder estimates.

On the principal eigencurve of the p-Laplacian related to the Sobolev trace embedding

Abdelouahed El Khalil, Mohammed Ouanan (2005)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove that for any λ ∈ ℝ, there is an increasing sequence of eigenvalues μₙ(λ) for the nonlinear boundary value problem ⎧ Δ ₚ u = | u | p - 2 u in Ω, ⎨ ⎩ | ∇ u | p - 2 ∂ u / ∂ ν = λ ϱ ( x ) | u | p - 2 u + μ | u | p - 2 u on crtial ∂Ω and we show that the first one μ₁(λ) is simple and isolated; we also prove some results about variations of the density ϱ and the continuity with respect to the parameter λ.

Sublinear eigenvalue problems on compact Riemannian manifolds with applications in Emden-Fowler equations

Alexandru Kristály, Vicenţiu Rădulescu (2009)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary, with dim M ≥ 3, and f: ℝ → ℝ a continuous function which is sublinear at infinity. By various variational approaches, existence of multiple solutions of the eigenvalue problem - Δ g ω + α ( σ ) ω = K ̃ ( λ , σ ) f ( ω ) , σ ∈ M, ω ∈ H₁²(M), is established for certain eigenvalues λ > 0, depending on further properties of f and on explicit forms of the function K̃. Here, Δ g stands for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on (M,g), and α, K̃ are smooth positive functions. These...

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

Similarity:

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 ₚ , W ₀ 1 , p ( Z ) ) . We prove the existence of five nontrivial smooth solutions, two positive, two negative and the fifth nodal.

Behaviour of the first eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian in a domain with a hole

M. Sango (2001)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate the behaviour of a sequence λ s , s = 1,2,..., of eigenvalues of the Dirichlet problem for the p-Laplacian in the domains Ω s , s = 1,2,..., obtained by removing from a given domain Ω a set E s whose diameter vanishes when s → ∞. We estimate the deviation of λ s from the eigenvalue of the limit problem. For the derivation of our results we construct an appropriate asymptotic expansion for the sequence of solutions of the original eigenvalue problem.

On Fredholm alternative for certain quasilinear boundary value problems

Pavel Drábek (2002)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We study the Dirichlet boundary value problem for the p -Laplacian of the form - Δ p u - λ 1 | u | p - 2 u = f in Ω , u = 0 on ∂ Ω , where Ω ⊂ ℝ N is a bounded domain with smooth boundary ∂ Ω , N ≥ 1 , p > 1 , f ∈ C ( Ω ¯ ) and λ 1 > 0 is the first eigenvalue of Δ p . We study the geometry of the energy functional E p ( u ) = 1 p ∫ Ω | ∇ u | p - λ 1 p ∫ Ω | u | p - ∫ Ω f u and show the difference between the case 1 < p < 2 and the case p > 2 . We also give the characterization of the right hand sides f for which the above Dirichlet problem is solvable and has multiple solutions.

Multiplicity bounds for Steklov eigenvalues on Riemannian surfaces

Mikhail Karpukhin, Gerasim Kokarev, Iosif Polterovich (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We prove two explicit bounds for the multiplicities of Steklov eigenvalues σ k on compact surfaces with boundary. One of the bounds depends only on the genus of a surface and the index k of an eigenvalue, while the other depends as well on the number of boundary components. We also show that on any given Riemannian surface with smooth boundary the multiplicities of Steklov eigenvalues σ k are uniformly bounded in k .
