We establish the existence of a T-p(x)-solution for the p(x)-elliptic problem $-div\left(a\right(x,u,\nabla u\left)\right)+g(x,u)=f-divF$ in Ω, where Ω is a bounded open domain of ${ℝ}^N$, N ≥ 2 and $a:\Omega \times ℝ\times {ℝ}^N\to {ℝ}^N$ is a Carathéodory function satisfying the natural growth condition and the coercivity condition, but with only a weak monotonicity condition. The right hand side f lies in L¹(Ω) and F belongs to ${\prod }_{i=1}^N{L}^{p^{\text{'}}\left(·\right)}\left(\Omega \right)$.

By a sub-super solution argument, we study the existence of positive solutions for the system ⎧$-{\Delta }_{p}u=a₁\left(x\right)F₁(x,u,v)$ in Ω, ⎪$-{\Delta }_{q}v=a₂\left(x\right)F₂(x,u,v)$ in Ω, ⎨u,v > 0 in Ω, ⎩u = v = 0 on ∂Ω, where Ω is a bounded domain in ${ℝ}^N$ with smooth boundary or $\Omega ={ℝ}^N$. A nonexistence result is obtained for radially symmetric solutions.

We deal with the problem ⎧ -Δu = f(x,u) + λg(x,u), in Ω, ⎨ ($P_{\lambda }$) ⎩ $u_{\mid \partial \Omega }=0$ where Ω ⊂ ℝⁿ is a bounded domain, λ ∈ ℝ, and f,g: Ω×ℝ → ℝ are two Carathéodory functions with f(x,0) = g(x,0) = 0. Under suitable assumptions, we prove that there exists λ* > 0 such that, for each λ ∈ (0,λ*), problem ($P_{\lambda }$) admits a non-zero, non-negative strong solution $u_{\lambda }\in {\bigcap }_{p\ge 2}{W}^{2,p}\left(\Omega \right)$ such that $li{m}_{\lambda \to 0⁺}\left|\right|u_{\lambda }{\left|\right|}_{W^{2,p}\left(\Omega \right)}=0$ for all p ≥ 2. Moreover, the function $\lambda \mapsto I_{\lambda }\left(u_{\lambda }\right)$ is negative and decreasing in ]0,λ*[, where $I_{\lambda }$ is the energy functional related to ($P_{\lambda }$). ...

Let $D_m$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ of the form $y^2=x^3-m^{2}x+m^2$, where $m$ is an integer. In this paper we prove that the two points $P_{-1}=(-m,m)$ and $P_0=(0,m)$ on $D_m$ can be extended to a basis for $D_m\left(\mathbb{Q}\right)$ under certain conditions described explicitly.

Our main purpose is to establish the existence of weak solutions of second order quasilinear elliptic systems ⎧ $-{\Delta }_{p}u+{\left|u\right|}^{p-2}u=f_{1\lambda ₁}{\left(x\right)\left|u\right|}^{q-2}u+2\alpha /(\alpha +\beta )g_{\mu }{\left|u\right|}^{\alpha -2}u{\left|v\right|}^{\beta }$, x ∈ Ω, ⎨ $-{\Delta }_{p}v+{\left|v\right|}^{p-2}v=f_{2\lambda ₂}{\left(x\right)\left|v\right|}^{q-2}v+2\beta /(\alpha +\beta )g_{\mu }{\left|u\right|}^{\alpha }{\left|v\right|}^{\beta -2}v$, x ∈ Ω, ⎩ u = v = 0, x∈ ∂Ω, where 1 < q < p < N and $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^N$ is an open bounded smooth domain. Here λ₁, λ₂, μ ≥ 0 and $f_{i{\lambda }_i}\left(x\right)={\lambda }_i{f}_{i+}\left(x\right)+f_{i-}\left(x\right)$ (i = 1,2) are sign-changing functions, where $f_{i\pm }\left(x\right)=max\pm f_i\left(x\right),0$, $g_{\mu }\left(x\right)=a\left(x\right)+\mu b\left(x\right)$, and ${\Delta }_{p}u={div\left(\right|\nabla u|}^{p-2}\nabla u)$ denotes the p-Laplace operator. We use variational methods.

Via critical point theory we establish the existence and regularity of solutions for the quasilinear elliptic problem ⎧ $div(x,\nabla u)+{a\left(x\right)\left|u\right|}^{p-2}u={g\left(x\right)\left|u\right|}^{p-2}u+h\left(x\right){\left|u\right|}^{s-1}u$ in ${ℝ}^N$ ⎨ ⎩ u > 0, $li{m}_{\left|x\right|\to \infty }u\left(x\right)=0$, where 1 < p < N; a(x) is assumed to satisfy a coercivity condition; h(x) and g(x) are not necessarily bounded but satisfy some integrability restrictions.

We consider a random, uniformly elliptic coefficient field $a$ on the lattice ${\mathbb{Z}}^d$. The distribution $\langle ·\rangle$ of the coefficient field is assumed to be stationary. Delmotte and Deuschel showed that the gradient and second mixed derivative of the parabolic Green’s function $G(t,x,y)$ satisfy optimal annealed estimates which are $L^2$ and $L^1$, respectively, in probability, i.e., they obtained bounds on $\langle |{\nabla }_{x}G(t,x,y){{|}^2\rangle }^{1/2}$ and $\langle \left|{\nabla }_x{\nabla }_{y}G(t,x,y)\right|\rangle$. In particular, the elliptic Green’s function $G(x,y)$ satisfies optimal annealed bounds. In their recent work,...

This paper is devoted to the study of some nonlinear degenerated elliptic equations, whose prototype is given by $$\begin{array}{cccc}\hfill t2& -{\mathrm{div}\left(b\right(\left|u\right|\left)\right|\nabla u|}^{p-2}{\nabla u)+d(\left|u\right|\left)\right|\nabla u|}^p=f-{\mathrm{div}\left(c\left(x\right)\right|u|}^{\alpha })\hfill & \hfill & \text{in}\Omega ,\hfill \\ & u=0\hfill & \hfill & \text{on}\partial \Omega ,\hfill \end{array}t$$ where $\Omega$ is a bounded open set of ${ℝ}^N$ ($N\ge 2$) with $1<p<N$ and $f\in L^1\left(\Omega \right),$ under some growth conditions on the function $b(·)$ and $d(·),$ where $c(·)$ is assumed to be in $L^{\frac{N}{(p-1)}}\left(\Omega \right).$ We show the existence of renormalized solutions for this non-coercive elliptic equation, also, some regularity results will be concluded.

In this paper we study some potential theoretical properties of solutions and super-solutions of some PDE systems (S) of type $L_{1}u=-{\mu }_{1}v$, $L_{2}v=-{\mu }_{2}u$, on a domain $D$ of ${ℝ}^d$, where ${\mu }_1$ and ${\mu }_2$ are suitable measures on $D$, and $L_1$, $L_2$ are two second order linear differential elliptic operators on $D$ with coefficients of class ${𝒞}^{\infty }$. We also obtain the integral representation of the nonnegative solutions and supersolutions of the system (S) by means of the Green kernels and Martin boundaries associated with $L_1$ and $L_2$, and...

We consider problem (P) of Kirchhoff-Carrier type with nonlinear terms containing a finite number of unknown values $u({\eta }_1,t),\cdots ,u({\eta }_q,t)$ with $0\le {\eta }_1<{\eta }_2<\cdots <{\eta }_q<1.$ By applying the linearization method together with the Faedo-Galerkin method and the weak compact method, we first prove the existence and uniqueness of a local weak solution of problem (P). Next, we consider a specific case $\left({\mathrm{P}}_q\right)$ of (P) in which the nonlinear term contains the sum $S_q\left[u^2\right]\left(t\right)=q^{-1}{\sum }_{i=1}^q{u}^2(\frac{(i-1)}{q},t)$. Under suitable conditions, we prove that the solution of $\left({\mathrm{P}}_q\right)$ converges to the solution...

Let $\varphi$ be an entire self-map of ${ℂ}^N$, $u_0$ be an entire function on ${ℂ}^N$ and $𝐮=(u_1,\cdots ,u_N)$ be a vector-valued entire function on ${ℂ}^N$. We extend the Stević-Sharma type operator to the classcial Fock spaces, by defining an operator $T_{u_0,𝐮,\varphi }$ as follows: $$-.4pt{T}_{u_0,𝐮,\varphi }f=u_0·f\circ \varphi +\sum _{i=1}^N{u}_i·\frac{\partial f}{\partial z_i}\circ \varphi .$$ We investigate the boundedness and compactness of $T_{u_0,𝐮,\varphi }$ on Fock spaces. The complex symmetry and self-adjointness of $T_{u_0,𝐮,\varphi }$ are also characterized.

Let $f\left(x\right)$ be a cubic, monic and separable polynomial over a field of characteristic $p\ge 3$ and let $E$ be the elliptic curve given by $y^2=f\left(x\right)$. In this paper we prove that the coefficient at $x^{\frac{1}{2}p(p-1)}$ in the $p$–th division polynomial of $E$ equals the coefficient at $x^{p-1}$ in $f{\left(x\right)}^{\frac{1}{2}(p-1)}$. For elliptic curves over a finite field of characteristic $p$, the first coefficient is zero if and only if $E$ is supersingular, which by a classical criterion of Deuring (1941) is also equivalent to the vanishing of the second coefficient. So the...

We show that the critical nonlinear elliptic Neumann problem $\Delta u-\mu u+u^{7/3}=0$ in $\Omega$, $u>0$ in $\Omega$, $\frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu }=0$ on $\partial \Omega$, where $\Omega$ is a bounded and smooth domain in ${ℝ}^5$, has arbitrarily many solutions, provided that $\mu >0$ is small enough. More precisely, for any positive integer $K$, there exists ${\mu }_K>0$ such that for $0<\mu <{\mu }_K$, the above problem has a nontrivial solution which blows up at $K$ interior points in $\Omega$, as $\mu \to 0$. The location of the blow-up points is related to the domain geometry. The solutions are obtained as critical points of some finite-dimensional...
