In this paper we consider a nonlinear elliptic equation with critical growth for the operator $\Delta^{2}$ in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n}$ . We state some existence results when $n\geq 8$ . Moreover, we consider $5\leq n\leq 7$ , expecially when $\Omega$ is a ball in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ .

Infinitely many solutions for a semilinear elliptic equation in $ℝ^{N}$ via a perturbation method

Marino Badiale (2002)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We introduce a method to treat a semilinear elliptic equation in $ℝ^{N}$ (see equation (1) below). This method is of a perturbative nature. It permits us to skip the problem of lack of compactness of $ℝ^{N}$ but requires an oscillatory behavior of the potential b.

Convex integration and the $L^{p}$ theory of elliptic equations

Kari Astala, Daniel Faraco, László Székelyhidi Jr. (2008)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

This paper deals with the $L^{p}$ theory of linear elliptic partial differential equations with bounded measurable coefficients. We construct in two dimensions examples of weak and so-called very weak solutions, with critical integrability properties, both to isotropic equations and to equations in non-divergence form. These examples show that the general $L^{p}$ theory, developed in [1, 24] and [2], cannot be extended under any restriction on the essential range of the coefficients. Our constructions...

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We discuss the existence of positive radial solutions of the semilinear elliptic equation ⎧-Δu = K(|x|)f(u), x ∈ Ω ⎨αu + β ∂u/∂n = 0, x ∈ ∂Ω, ⎩ $l i m_{| x | \to \infty} u (x) = 0$ , where $Ω = x \in ℝ^{N} : | x | > r ₀$ , N ≥ 3, K: [r₀,∞) → ℝ⁺ is continuous and $0 < \int_{r ₀}^{\infty} r K (r) d r < \infty$ , f ∈ C(ℝ⁺,ℝ⁺), f(0) = 0. Under the conditions related to the asymptotic behaviour of f(u)/u at 0 and infinity, the existence of positive radial solutions is obtained. Our conditions are more precise and weaker than the superlinear or sublinear growth conditions. Our discussion is based on the...

We study the existence, nonexistence and multiplicity of positive solutions for the family of problems $- Δ u = f_{λ} (x, u)$ , $u \in H_{0}^{1} (Ω)$ , where $Ω$ is a bounded domain in $ℝ^{N}$ , $N \geq 3$ and $λ > 0$ is a parameter.

The coefficient $a (x)$ is assumed to be nonnegative but $b (x)$ is allowed to change sign, even in the critical case. The notions of local superlinearity and local sublinearity introduced in [9] are essential...

Via critical point theory we establish the existence and regularity of solutions for the quasilinear elliptic problem ⎧ $d i v (x, \nabla u) + {a (x) | u |}^{p - 2} u = {g (x) | u |}^{p - 2} u + h (x) {| u |}^{s - 1} u$ in $ℝ^{N}$ ⎨ ⎩ u > 0, $l i m_{| x | \to \infty} u (x) = 0$ , 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.

A nonlinear elliptic equation with singular potential and applications to nonlinear field equations

Marino Badiale, Vieri Benci, Sergio Rolando (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove the existence of cylindrical solutions to the semilinear elliptic problem $- Δ u + \frac{u}{{| y |}^{2}} = f (u)$ , $u \in H^{1} (ℝ^{N})$ , $u \geq 0$ , where $(y, z) \in ℝ^{k} \times ℝ^{N - k}$ , $N > k \geq 2$ and $f$ has a double-power behaviour, subcritical at infinity and supercritical near the origin. This result also implies the existence of solitary waves with nonvanishing angular momentum for nonlinear Schr¨odinger and Klein–Gordon equations.

The vector field a(·,·) is a Carathéodory function. Using truncation techniques and the generalized monotonicity method in function spaces we prove existence of renormalized solutions for general $L^{\infty}$ -data.

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

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 $\partial A_{ε}$ , where $A_{ε}$ is an annulus-shaped domain of $ℝ^{n}$ , $n \geq 3$ , which becomes thinner as $ε \to 0$ . We show that for every solution $u_{ε}$ , the energy $\int_{A_{ε}} | \nabla u_{|}^{2}$ as well as the Morse index tend to infinity as $ε \to 0$ . 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 $ℝ^{n}$ , a half-space or an infinite strip. Our argument also involves a Liouville...

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 $Ω$ , $\frac{\partial u}{\partial ν} = 0$ on $\partial Ω$ , where $Ω$ is a bounded and smooth domain in $ℝ^{5}$ , 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 $μ \to 0$ . The location of the blow-up points is related to the domain geometry. The solutions are obtained as critical points of some finite-dimensional...

The study of the equation (L₂L₁)*h = 0 or of the equivalent system L*₂h₂ = -h₁, L*₁h₁ = 0, where $L_{j} (j = 1, 2)$ is a second order elliptic differential operator, leads us to the following general framework: Starting from a biharmonic space, for example the space of solutions (u₁,u₂) of the system L₁u₁ = -u₂, L₂u₂ = 0, $L_{j} (j = 1, 2)$ being elliptic or parabolic, and by means of its Green pairs, we construct the associated adjoint biharmonic space which is in duality with the initial one.

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...

Multiple solutions of indefinite elliptic systems via a Galerkin-type Conley index theory

Marek Izydorek, Krzysztof P. Rybakowski (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let Ω be a bounded domain in $ℝ^{N}$ with smooth boundary. Consider the following elliptic system: $- Δ u = \partial_{v} H (u, v, x)$ in Ω, $- Δ v = \partial_{u} H (u, v, x)$ in Ω, u = 0, v = 0 in ∂Ω. (ES) We assume that H is an even "-"-type Hamiltonian function whose first order partial derivatives satisfy appropriate growth conditions. We show that if (0,0) is a hyperbolic solution of (ES), then (ES) has at least 2|μ| nontrivial solutions, where μ = μ(0,0) is the renormalized Morse index of (0,0). This proves a conjecture by Angenent and van der Vorst. ...

Separable solutions of quasilinear Lane–Emden equations

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

For $0 < p - 1 < q$ and either $ϵ = 1$ or $ϵ = - 1$ , we prove the existence of solutions of $- Δ_{p} u = ϵ u^{q}$ in a cone $C_{S}$ , with vertex 0 and opening $S$ , vanishing on $\partial C_{S}$ , of the form $u (x) = {|x|}^{- β} ω (x / |x|)$ . The problem reduces to a quasilinear elliptic equation on $S$ and the existence proof is based upon degree theory and homotopy methods. We also obtain a nonexistence result in some critical case by making use of an integral type identity.

We use variational methods.

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

Similarity:

We study the leading order behaviour of positive solutions of the equation $- Δ u + ϵ u - {| u |}^{p - 2} u + {| u |}^{q - 2} u = 0, x \in ℝ^{N}$ , where $N \geq 3$ , $q > p > 2$ and when $ϵ > 0$ is a small parameter.

The behavior of solutions depends sensitively on whether $p$ is less, equal or bigger than the critical Sobolev exponent $2^{*} = \frac{2 N}{N - 2}$ . 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...

We consider a random, uniformly elliptic coefficient field $a$ on the lattice $ℤ^{d}$ . The distribution $〈 \cdot 〉$ 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 $〈 | \nabla_{x} G (t, x, y) {|^{2} 〉}^{1 / 2}$ and $〈 | \nabla_{x} \nabla_{y} G (t, x, y) | 〉$ . In particular, the elliptic Green’s function $G (x, y)$ satisfies optimal annealed bounds. In their recent work,...

A Littlewood-Paley type inequality with applications to the elliptic Dirichlet problem

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let L be a strictly elliptic second order operator on a bounded domain Ω ⊂ ℝⁿ. Let u be a solution to $L u = d i v \vec{f}$ in Ω, u = 0 on ∂Ω. Sufficient conditions on two measures, μ and ν defined on Ω, are established which imply that the $L^{q} (Ω, d μ)$ norm of |∇u| is dominated by the $L^{p} (Ω, d v)$ norms of $d i v \vec{f}$ and $| \vec{f} |$ . If we replace |∇u| by a local Hölder norm of u, the conditions on μ and ν can be significantly weaker.

In the recent literature, the phenomenon of phase separation for binary mixtures of Bose–Einstein condensates can be understood, from a mathematical point of view, as governed by the asymptotic limit of the stationary Gross–Pitaevskii system $- Δ u + u^{3} + β u v^{2} = λ u, - Δ v + v^{3} + β u^{2} v = μ v, u, v \in H_{0}^{1} (Ω), u, v > 0$ , as the interspecies scattering length $β$ goes to $+ \infty$ . For this system we consider the associated energy functionals $J_{β}, β \in (0, + \infty)$ , with $L^{2}$ -mass constraints, which limit $J_{\infty}$ (as $β \to + \infty$ ) is strongly irregular. For such functionals, we construct multiple critical points...
