On Fredholm alternative for certain quasilinear boundary value problems

Pavel Drábek (2002)

Mathematica Bohemica

We study the Dirichlet boundary value problem for the p -Laplacian of the form - Δ p u - λ 1 | u | p - 2 u = f in Ω , u = 0 on Ω , where Ω N is a bounded domain with smooth boundary Ω , N 1 , p > 1 , f C ( Ω ¯ ) and λ 1 > 0 is the first eigenvalue of Δ p . We study the geometry of the energy functional E p ( u ) = 1 p Ω | u | p - λ 1 p Ω | u | p - Ω f u and show the difference between the case 1 < p < 2 and the case p > 2 . We also give the characterization of the right hand sides f for which the above Dirichlet problem is solvable and has multiple solutions.

On singular perturbation problems with Robin boundary condition

Henri Berestycki, Juncheng Wei (2003)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

We consider the following singularly perturbed elliptic problem ϵ 2 Δ u - u + f ( u ) = 0 , u &gt; 0 in Ω , ϵ u ν + λ u = 0 on Ω , where f satisfies some growth conditions, 0 λ + , and Ω N ( N &gt; 1 ) is a smooth and bounded domain. The cases λ = 0 (Neumann problem) and λ = + (Dirichlet problem) have been studied by many authors in recent years. We show that, there exists a generic constant λ * &gt; 1 such that, as ϵ 0 , the least energy solution has a spike near the boundary if λ λ * , and has an interior spike near the innermost part of the domain if λ &gt; λ * . Central to our study is the corresponding problem...

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

In this paper we consider the existence and asymptotic behavior of solutions of the following problem: u t t ( t , x ) - ( α + β u ( t , x ) 2 2 + β v ( t , x ) 2 2 ) Δ u ( t , x ) + δ | u t ( t , x ) | p - 1 u t ( t , x ) = μ | u ( t , x ) | q - 1 u ( t , x ) , x Ω , t 0 , v t t ( t , x ) - ( α + β u ( t , x ) 2 2 + β v ( t , x ) 2 2 ) Δ v ( t , x ) + δ | v t ( t , x ) | p - 1 v t ( t , x ) = μ | v ( t , x ) | q - 1 v ( t , x ) , x Ω , t 0 , u ( 0 , x ) = u 0 ( x ) , u t ( 0 , x ) = u 1 ( x ) , x Ω , v ( 0 , x ) = v 0 ( x ) , v t ( 0 , x ) = v 1 ( x ) , x Ω , u | Ω = v | Ω = 0 where q > 1 , p 1 , δ > 0 , α > 0 , β 0 , μ and Δ is the Laplacian in N .

On Spectral Stability of Solitary Waves of Nonlinear Dirac Equation in 1D⋆⋆

G. Berkolaiko, A. Comech (2012)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We study the spectral stability of solitary wave solutions to the nonlinear Dirac equation in one dimension. We focus on the Dirac equation with cubic nonlinearity, known as the Soler model in (1+1) dimensions and also as the massive Gross-Neveu model. Presented numerical computations of the spectrum of linearization at a solitary wave show that the solitary waves are spectrally stable. We corroborate our results by finding explicit expressions for...

On Spectrum and Riesz basis property for one-dimensional wave equation with Boltzmann damping∗

Bao-Zhu Guo, Guo-Dong Zhang (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper, we study the one-dimensional wave equation with Boltzmann damping. Two different Boltzmann integrals that represent the memory of materials are considered. The spectral properties for both cases are thoroughly analyzed. It is found that when the memory of system is counted from the infinity, the spectrum of system contains a left half complex plane, which is sharp contrast to the most results in elastic vibration systems that the vibrating dynamics can be considered from the vibration...
