A symmetry problem in the calculus of variations

Graziano Crasta (2006)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We consider the integral functional J ( u ) = Ω [ f ( | D u | ) u ] d x , u W 0 1 , 1 ( Ω ) , where Ω n , n 2 , is a nonempty bounded connected open subset of n with smooth boundary, and s f ( | s | ) is a convex, differentiable function. We prove that if J admits a minimizer in W 0 1 , 1 ( Ω ) depending only on the distance from the boundary of Ω , then Ω must be a ball.

A bifurcation theory for some nonlinear elliptic equations

Biagio Ricceri (2003)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We deal with the problem ⎧ -Δu = f(x,u) + λg(x,u), in Ω, ⎨ ( P λ ) ⎩ u Ω = 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 λ ) admits a non-zero, non-negative strong solution u λ p 2 W 2 , p ( Ω ) such that l i m λ 0 | | u λ | | W 2 , p ( Ω ) = 0 for all p ≥ 2. Moreover, the function λ I λ ( u λ ) is negative and decreasing in ]0,λ*[, where I λ is the energy functional related to ( P λ ). ...

Positivity and anti-maximum principles for elliptic operators with mixed boundary conditions

Catherine Bandle, Joachim von Below, Wolfgang Reichel (2008)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We consider linear elliptic equations - Δ u + q ( x ) u = λ u + f in bounded Lipschitz domains D N with mixed boundary conditions u / n = σ ( x ) λ u + g on D . The main feature of this boundary value problem is the appearance of λ both in the equation and in the boundary condition. In general we make no assumption on the sign of the coefficient σ ( x ) . We study positivity principles and anti-maximum principles. One of our main results states that if σ is somewhere negative, q 0 and D q ( x ) d x > 0 then there exist two eigenvalues λ - 1 , λ 1 such the positivity...

Scaling limit and cube-root fluctuations in SOS surfaces above a wall

Pietro Caputo, Eyal Lubetzky, Fabio Martinelli, Allan Sly, Fabio Lucio Toninelli (2016)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Consider the classical ( 2 + 1 ) -dimensional Solid-On-Solid model above a hard wall on an L × L box of 2 . The model describes a crystal surface by assigning a non-negative integer height η x to each site x in the box and 0 heights to its boundary. The probability of a surface configuration η is proportional to exp ( - β ( η ) ) , where β is the inverse-temperature and ( η ) sums the absolute values of height differences between neighboring sites. We give a full description of the shape of the SOS surface for low enough...

On surfaces with p 𝑔 = q = 1 and non-ruled bicanonical involution

Carlos Rito (2007)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

This paper classifies surfaces S of general type with p g = q = 1 having an involution i such that S / i has non-negative Kodaira dimension and that the bicanonical map of S factors through the double cover induced by i . It is shown that S / i is regular and either: a) the Albanese fibration of S is of genus 2 or b) S has no genus 2 fibration and S / i is birational to a K 3 surface. For case a) a list of possibilities and examples are given. An example for case b) with K 2 = 6 is also constructed.

Upper bounds for singular perturbation problems involving gradient fields

Arkady Poliakovsky (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove an upper bound for the Aviles–Giga problem, which involves the minimization of the energy E ε ( v ) = ε Ω | 2 v | 2 d x + ε 1 Ω ( 1 | v | 2 ) 2 d x over v H 2 ( Ω ) , where ε > 0 is a small parameter. Given v W 1 , ( Ω ) such that v B V and | v | = 1 a.e., we construct a family { v ε } satisfying: v ε v in W 1 , p ( Ω ) and E ε ( v ε ) 1 3 J v | + v v | 3 d N 1 as ε goes to 0.

𝒞 k -regularity for the ¯ -equation with a support condition

Shaban Khidr, Osama Abdelkader (2017)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let D be a 𝒞 d q -convex intersection, d 2 , 0 q n - 1 , in a complex manifold X of complex dimension n , n 2 , and let E be a holomorphic vector bundle of rank N over X . In this paper, 𝒞 k -estimates, k = 2 , 3 , , , for solutions to the ¯ -equation with small loss of smoothness are obtained for E -valued ( 0 , s ) -forms on D when n - q s n . In addition, we solve the ¯ -equation with a support condition in 𝒞 k -spaces. More precisely, we prove that for a ¯ -closed form f in 𝒞 0 , q k ( X D , E ) , 1 q n - 2 , n 3 , with compact support and for ε with 0 < ε < 1 there...

Theoretical analysis for 1 - 2 minimization with partial support information

Haifeng Li, Leiyan Guo (2025)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We investigate the recovery of k -sparse signals using the 1 - 2 minimization model with prior support set information. The prior support set information, which is believed to contain the indices of nonzero signal elements, significantly enhances the performance of compressive recovery by improving accuracy, efficiency, reducing complexity, expanding applicability, and enhancing robustness. We assume k -sparse signals 𝐱 with the prior support T which is composed of g true indices and b wrong...

Generalized versions of Ilmanen lemma: Insertion of C 1 , ω or C loc 1 , ω functions

Václav Kryštof (2018)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We prove that for a normed linear space X , if f 1 : X is continuous and semiconvex with modulus ω , f 2 : X is continuous and semiconcave with modulus ω and f 1 f 2 , then there exists f C 1 , ω ( X ) such that f 1 f f 2 . Using this result we prove a generalization of Ilmanen lemma (which deals with the case ω ( t ) = t ) to the case of an arbitrary nontrivial modulus ω . This generalization (where a C l o c 1 , ω function is inserted) gives a positive answer to a problem formulated by A. Fathi and M. Zavidovique in 2010.

Pointed k -surfaces

Graham Smith (2006)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

Let S be a Riemann surface. Let 3 be the 3 -dimensional hyperbolic space and let 3 be its ideal boundary. In our context, a Plateau problem is a locally holomorphic mapping ϕ : S 3 = ^ . If i : S 3 is a convex immersion, and if N is its exterior normal vector field, we define the Gauss lifting, ı ^ , of i by ı ^ = N . Let n : U 3 3 be the Gauss-Minkowski mapping. A solution to the Plateau problem ( S , ϕ ) is a convex immersion i of constant Gaussian curvature equal to k ( 0 , 1 ) such that the Gauss lifting ( S , ı ^ ) is complete and n ı ^ = ϕ . In this...

Some theorems of Korovkin type

Tomoko Hachiro, Takateru Okayasu (2003)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We take another approach to the well known theorem of Korovkin, in the following situation: X, Y are compact Hausdorff spaces, M is a unital subspace of the Banach space C(X) (respectively, C ( X ) ) of all complex-valued (resp., real-valued) continuous functions on X, S ⊂ M a complex (resp., real) function space on X, ϕₙ a sequence of unital linear contractions from M into C(Y) (resp., C ( Y ) ), and ϕ a linear isometry from M into C(Y) (resp., C ( Y ) ). We show, under the assumption that Π N Π T , where Π N is...

Sum-product theorems and incidence geometry

Mei-Chu Chang, Jozsef Solymosi (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

In this paper we prove the following theorems in incidence geometry. 1. There is δ > 0 such that for any P 1 , , P 4 , and Q 1 , , Q n 2 , if there are n ( 1 + δ ) / 2 many distinct lines between P i and Q j for all i , j , then P 1 , , P 4 are collinear. If the number of the distinct lines is < c n 1 / 2 then the cross ratio of the four points is algebraic. 2. Given c > 0 , there is δ > 0 such that for any P 1 , P 2 , P 3 2 noncollinear, and Q 1 , , Q n 2 , if there are c n 1 / 2 many distinct lines between P i and Q j for all i , j , then for any P 2 { P 1 , P 2 , P 3 } , we have δ n distinct lines between P and Q j . 3. Given...

On the Configuration Spaces of Grassmannian Manifolds

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

Let h i ( k , n ) be the i -th ordered configuration space of all distinct points H 1 , ... , H h in the Grassmannian G r ( k , n ) of k -dimensional subspaces of n , whose sum is a subspace of dimension i . We prove that h i ( k , n ) is (when non empty) a complex submanifold of G r ( k , n ) h of dimension i ( n - i ) + h k ( i - k ) and its fundamental group is trivial if i = m i n ( n , h k ) , h k n and n &gt; 2 and equal to the braid group of the sphere P 1 if n = 2 . Eventually we compute the fundamental group in the special case of hyperplane arrangements, i.e. k = n - 1 .
