Orbital stability for polytropic galaxies
We consider the analysis and numerical solution of a forward-backward boundary value problem. We provide some motivation, prove existence and uniqueness in a function class especially geared to the problem at hand, provide various energy estimates, prove a priori error estimates for the Galerkin method, and show the results of some numerical computations.
We study the sequence , which is solution of in an open bounded set of and on , when tends to a measure concentrated on a set of null Orlicz-capacity. We consider the relation between this capacity and the -function , and prove a non-existence result.
We study the sequence un, which is solution of in Ω an open bounded set of RN and un= 0 on ∂Ω, when fn tends to a measure concentrated on a set of null Orlicz-capacity. We consider the relation between this capacity and the N-function Φ, and prove a non-existence result.
We prove some quantitatively sharp estimates concerning the Δ₂ and ∇₂ conditions for functions which generalize known ones. The sharp forms arise in the connection between Orlicz space theory and the theory of elliptic partial differential equations.
