In this paper, we study the semiclassical limit of the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with the Neumann boundary condition in an exterior domain. We prove that before the formation of singularities in the limit system, the quantum density and the quantum momentum converge to the unique solution of the compressible Euler equation with the slip boundary condition as the scaling parameter approaches $0.$

We consider a singularly perturbed elliptic equation ${ϵ}^2\Delta u-V\left(x\right)u+f\left(u\right)=0,u\left(x\right)>0$ on ${ℝ}^N$, ${\mathrm{𝚕𝚒𝚖}}_{\left|x\right|\to \infty }u\left(x\right)=0$, where $V\left(x\right)>0$ for any $x\in {ℝ}^N$. The singularly perturbed problem has corresponding limiting problems $\Delta U-cU+f\left(U\right)=0,U\left(x\right)>0$ on ${ℝ}^N$, ${\mathrm{𝚕𝚒𝚖}}_{\left|x\right|\to \infty }U\left(x\right)=0,c>0$. 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 $f$.

This is the second instalment of my previous paper with the same title, [1]. This paper consists of two different parts. The first part is devoted to improvements of the results developed in [1]. These improvements are described in section 0.1 below and developed in sections 1 to 5, and 9 to 10; they are in fact technically distinct from [1] and rely on a systematic use of microlocalisation in the context of Hörmander-Weyl calculus. These paragraphs can therefore be read quite independently from...

For $0<p-1<q$ and either $ϵ=1$ or $ϵ=-1$, we prove the existence of solutions of $-{\Delta }_{p}u=ϵu^q$ in a cone $C_S$, with vertex 0 and opening $S$, vanishing on $\partial C_S$, of the form $u\left(x\right)={\left|x\right|}^{-\beta }\omega (x/\left|x\right|)$. 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.

A review of some methods in sheaf theory is presented to make precise a general concept of regularity in algebras or spaces of generalized functions. This leads to the local analysis of the sections of sheaves or presheaves under consideration and then to microlocal analysis and microlocal asymptotic analysis.

Nella prima parte di questa Nota si dimostrano dei risultati di simmetria unidimensionale e radiale per le soluzioni di $\mathrm{\Delta }u+f\left(u\right)=0$ in ${\mathbb{R}}^N$. Questi risultati sono legati a due congetture (De Giorgi, 1978 e Gibbons, 1994) riguardanti la classificazione delle soluzioni dell’equazione $\mathrm{\Delta }u+u\left(1-u^2\right)=0$ in ${\mathbb{R}}^N$. Si dimostra, in particolare, la seguente generalizzazione della congettura di Gibbons: se $N>1$ e se l’insieme degli zeri di $u$ è limitato nella direzione $\nu$, allora $u\left(x\right)=u_0\left(\nu \cdot x\right)$, ovvero, $u$ è unidimensionale. Nella seconda parte si considerano...

When analysing general systems of PDEs, it is important first to find the involutive form of the initial system. This is because the properties of the system cannot in general be determined if the system is not involutive. We show that the notion of involutivity is also interesting from the numerical point of view. The use of the involutive form of the system allows one to consider quite general situations in a unified way. We illustrate our approach on the numerical solution of several flow equations...

A current procedure that takes into account the Dirichlet boundary condition with non-smooth data is to change it into a Robin type condition by introducing a penalization term; a major effect of this procedure is an easy implementation of the boundary condition. In this work, we deal with an optimal control problem where the control variable is the Dirichlet data. We describe the Robin penalization, and we bound the gap between the penalized and the non-penalized boundary controls for the small...
