We study the lifespan of solutions to fully nonlinear second-order Cauchy problems with small real- or complex-analytic data. The nonlinear term is an analytic function in u, ū and their derivatives. We give an outline of the proof based on the method of majorants and the fixed point technique.
The nonlinear dissipative wave equation in dimension has strong solutions with the following structure. In the solutions have a focusing wave of singularity on the incoming light cone . In that is after the focusing time, they are smoother than they were in . The examples are radial and piecewise smooth in
Let G be a real connected Lie group with polynomial volume growth endowed with its Haar measuredx. Given a C² positive bounded integrable function M on G, we give a sufficient condition for an L² Poincaré inequality with respect to the measure M(x)dx to hold on G. We then establish a nonlocal Poincaré inequality on G with respect to M(x)dx. We also give analogous Poincaré inequalities on Riemannian manifolds and deal with the case of Hardy inequalities.
In this paper we study the existence of minimizer for certain constrained variational problems given by functionals with nonlocal terms. This type of functionals are first integrals of evolution equations describing long wave propagation and the existence of minimizer gives the existence and the stability of traveling waves for these equations. Due to loss of compactness, the major problem is to prevent dichotomy of minimizing sequences. Our approach is an alternative to the concentration-compactness...
Using a version of the Local Linking Theorem and the Fountain Theorem, we obtain some existence and multiplicity results for a class of superquadratic elliptic equations.
