Asymptotic properties of ground states of scalar field equations with a vanishing parameter

Vitaly Moroz, Cyrill B. Muratov (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study the leading order behaviour of positive solutions of the equation - Δ u + ϵ u - | u | p - 2 u + | u | q - 2 u = 0 , x N , where N 3 , q > p > 2 and when ϵ > 0 is a small parameter. We give a complete characterization of all possible asymptotic regimes as a function of p , q and N . The behavior of solutions depends sensitively on whether p is less, equal or bigger than the critical Sobolev exponent 2 * = 2 N N - 2 . For p < 2 * the solution asymptotically coincides with the solution of the equation in which the last term is absent. For p > 2 * the solution asymptotically...

Critical points of the Moser-Trudinger functional on a disk

Andrea Malchiodi, Luca Martinazzi (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

On the unit disk B 1 2 we study the Moser-Trudinger functional E ( u ) = B 1 e u 2 - 1 d x , u H 0 1 ( B 1 ) and its restrictions E | M Λ , where M Λ : = { u H 0 1 ( B 1 ) : u H 0 1 2 = Λ } for Λ > 0 . We prove that if a sequence u k of positive critical points of E | M Λ k (for some Λ k > 0 ) blows up as k , then Λ k 4 π , and u k 0 weakly in H 0 1 ( B 1 ) and strongly in C loc 1 ( B ¯ 1 { 0 } ) . Using this fact we also prove that when Λ is large enough, then E | M Λ has no positive critical point, complementing previous existence results by Carleson-Chang, M. Struwe and Lamm-Robert-Struwe.

Bubbling along boundary geodesics near the second critical exponent

Manuel del Pino, Monica Musso, Frank Pacard (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

The role of the second critical exponent p = ( n + 1 ) / ( n - 3 ) , the Sobolev critical exponent in one dimension less, is investigated for the classical Lane–Emden–Fowler problem Δ u + u p = 0 , u > 0 under zero Dirichlet boundary conditions, in a domain Ω in n with bounded, smooth boundary. Given Γ , a geodesic of the boundary with negative inner normal curvature we find that for p = ( n + 1 ) / ( n - 3 - ε ) , there exists a solution u ε such that | u ε | 2 converges weakly to a Dirac measure on Γ as ε 0 + , provided that Γ is nondegenerate in the sense of second...

Recent results on stationary critical Kirchhoff systems in closed manifolds

Emmanuel Hebey, Pierre-Damien Thizy (2013-2014)

Séminaire Laurent Schwartz — EDP et applications

Similarity:

We report on results we recently obtained in Hebey and Thizy [11, 12] for critical stationary Kirchhoff systems in closed manifolds. Let ( M n , g ) be a closed n -manifold, n 3 . The critical Kirchhoff systems we consider are written as a + b j = 1 p M | u j | 2 d v g Δ g u i + j = 1 p A i j u j = U 2 - 2 u i for all i = 1 , , p , where Δ g is the Laplace-Beltrami operator, A is a C 1 -map from M into the space M s p ( ) of symmetric p × p matrices with real entries, the A i j ’s are the components of A , U = ( u 1 , , u p ) , | U | : M is the Euclidean norm of U , 2 = 2 n n - 2 is the critical Sobolev exponent, and...

Arbitrary number of positive solutions for an elliptic problem with critical nonlinearity

Olivier Rey, Juncheng Wei (2005)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We show that the critical nonlinear elliptic Neumann problem Δ u μ u + u 7 / 3 = 0 in Ω , u > 0 in Ω , u ν = 0 on Ω , where Ω is a bounded and smooth domain in 5 , has arbitrarily many solutions, provided that μ > 0 is small enough. More precisely, for any positive integer K , there exists μ K > 0 such that for 0 < μ < μ K , the above problem has a nontrivial solution which blows up at K interior points in Ω , as μ 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...

Energy and Morse index of solutions of Yamabe type problems on thin annuli

Mohammed Ben Ayed, Khalil El Mehdi, Mohameden Ould Ahmedou, Filomena Pacella (2005)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We consider the Yamabe type family of problems ( P ε ) : Δ u ε = u ε ( n + 2 ) / ( n 2 ) , u ε > 0 in A ε , u ε = 0 on A ε , where A ε is an annulus-shaped domain of n , n 3 , which becomes thinner as ε 0 . We show that for every solution u ε , the energy A ε | u | 2 as well as the Morse index tend to infinity as ε 0 . This is proved through a fine blow up analysis of appropriate scalings of solutions whose limiting profiles are regular, as well as of singular solutions of some elliptic problem on n , a half-space or an infinite strip. Our argument also involves a Liouville...

Linking and the Morse complex

Michael Usher (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

For a Morse function f on a compact oriented manifold M , we show that f has more critical points than the number required by the Morse inequalities if and only if there exists a certain class of link in M whose components have nontrivial linking number, such that the minimal value of f on one of the components is larger than its maximal value on the other. Indeed we characterize the precise number of critical points of f in terms of the Betti numbers of M and the behavior of f with respect...

A compactness result for polyharmonic maps in the critical dimension

Shenzhou Zheng (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

For n = 2 m 4 , let Ω n be a bounded smooth domain and 𝒩 L a compact smooth Riemannian manifold without boundary. Suppose that { u k } W m , 2 ( Ω , 𝒩 ) is a sequence of weak solutions in the critical dimension to the perturbed m -polyharmonic maps d d t | t = 0 E m ( Π ( u + t ξ ) ) = 0 with Φ k 0 in ( W m , 2 ( Ω , 𝒩 ) ) * and u k u weakly in W m , 2 ( Ω , 𝒩 ) . Then u is an m -polyharmonic map. In particular, the space of m -polyharmonic maps is sequentially compact for the weak- W m , 2 topology.

Semi-classical standing waves for nonlinear Schrödinger equations at structurally stable critical points of the potential

Jaeyoung Byeon, Kazunaga Tanaka (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We consider a singularly perturbed elliptic equation ϵ 2 Δ u - V ( x ) u + f ( u ) = 0 , u ( x ) > 0 on N , 𝚕𝚒𝚖 x u ( x ) = 0 , where V ( x ) > 0 for any x N . The singularly perturbed problem has corresponding limiting problems Δ U - c U + f ( U ) = 0 , U ( x ) > 0 on N , 𝚕𝚒𝚖 x U ( x ) = 0 , c > 0 . Berestycki-Lions found almost necessary and sufficient conditions on nonlinearity f for existence of a solution of the limiting problem. There have been endeavors to construct solutions of the singularly perturbed problem concentrating around structurally stable critical points of potential V under possibly general conditions...

On a class of ( p , q ) -Laplacian problems involving the critical Sobolev-Hardy exponents in starshaped domain

M.S. Shahrokhi-Dehkordi (2017)

Communications in Mathematics

Similarity:

Let Ω n be a bounded starshaped domain and consider the ( p , q ) -Laplacian problem - Δ p u - Δ q u = λ ( 𝐱 ) | u | p - 2 u + μ | u | r - 2 u where μ is a positive parameter, 1 < q p < n , r p and p : = n p n - p is the critical Sobolev exponent. In this short note we address the question of non-existence for non-trivial solutions to the ( p , q ) -Laplacian problem. In particular we show the non-existence of non-trivial solutions to the problem by using a method based on Pohozaev identity.

On critical values of twisted Artin L -functions

Peng-Jie Wong (2017)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We give a simple proof that critical values of any Artin L -function attached to a representation ρ with character χ ρ are stable under twisting by a totally even character χ , up to the dim ρ -th power of the Gauss sum related to χ and an element in the field generated by the values of χ ρ and χ over . This extends a result of Coates and Lichtenbaum as well as the previous work of Ward.

An effective proof of the hyperelliptic Shafarevich conjecture

Rafael von Känel (2014)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Let C be a hyperelliptic curve of genus g 1 over a number field K with good reduction outside a finite set of places S of K . We prove that C has a Weierstrass model over the ring of integers of K with height effectively bounded only in terms of g , S and K . In particular, we obtain that for any given number field K , finite set of places S of K and integer g 1 one can in principle determine the set of K -isomorphism classes of hyperelliptic curves over K of genus g with good reduction outside...

Rigidity of critical circle mappings I

Edson de Faria, Welington de Melo (1999)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove that two C 3 critical circle maps with the same rotation number in a special set 𝔸 are C 1 + α conjugate for some α > 0 provided their successive renormalizations converge together at an exponential rate in the C 0 sense. The set 𝔸 has full Lebesgue measure and contains all rotation numbers of bounded type. By contrast, we also give examples of C critical circle maps with the same rotation number that are not C 1 + β conjugate for any β > 0 . The class of rotation numbers for which such examples exist...

Perron-Frobenius operators and the Klein-Gordon equation

Francisco Canto-Martín, Håkan Hedenmalm, Alfonso Montes-Rodríguez (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

For a smooth curve Γ and a set Λ in the plane 2 , let A C ( Γ ; Λ ) be the space of finite Borel measures in the plane supported on Γ , absolutely continuous with respect to the arc length and whose Fourier transform vanishes on Λ . Following [12], we say that ( Γ , Λ ) is a Heisenberg uniqueness pair if A C ( Γ ; Λ ) = { 0 } . In the context of a hyperbola Γ , the study of Heisenberg uniqueness pairs is the same as looking for uniqueness sets Λ of a collection of solutions to the Klein-Gordon equation. In this work, we mainly...

W. Szczotka (2006)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

For each n ≥ 1, let v n , k , k 1 and u n , k , k 1 be mutually independent sequences of nonnegative random variables and let each of them consist of mutually independent and identically distributed random variables with means v̅ₙ and u̅̅ₙ, respectively. Let X B ( t ) = ( 1 / c ) j = 1 [ n t ] ( v n , j - v ̅ ) , X A ( t ) = ( 1 / c ) j = 1 [ n t ] ( u n , j - u ̅ ̅ ) , t ≥ 0, and X = X B - X A . The main result gives conditions under which the weak convergence X X , where X is a Lévy process, implies X B X B and X A X A , where X B and X A are mutually independent Lévy processes and X = X B - X A .

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We study the existence of positive solutions of the quasilinear problem ⎧ - Δ N u + V ( x ) | u | N - 2 u = f ( u , | u | N - 2 u ) , x N , ⎨ ⎩ u(x) > 0, x N , where Δ N u = d i v ( | u | N - 2 u ) is the N-Laplacian operator, V : N is a continuous potential, f : × N is a continuous function. The main result follows from an iterative method based on Mountain Pass techniques.

The supports of higher bifurcation currents

Romain Dujardin (2013)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

Let ( f λ ) λ Λ be a holomorphic family of rational mappings of degree d on 1 ( ) , with k marked critical points c 1 , ... , c k . To this data is associated a closed positive current T 1 T k of bidegree ( k , k ) on Λ , aiming to describe the simultaneous bifurcations of the marked critical points. In this note we show that the support of this current is accumulated by parameters at which c 1 , ... , c k eventually fall on repelling cycles. Together with results of Buff, Epstein and Gauthier, this leads to a complete characterization of Supp ( T 1 T k ) . ...
