This paper is concerned with the study of a model case of first order Hamilton-Jacobi equations posed on a “junction”, that is to say the union of a finite number of half-lines with a unique common point. The main result is a comparison principle. We also prove existence and stability of solutions. The two challenging difficulties are the singular geometry of the domain and the discontinuity of the Hamiltonian. As far as discontinuous Hamiltonians are concerned, these results seem to be new. They...
We shall prove a weak comparison principle for quasilinear elliptic operators that includes the negative -Laplace operator, where satisfies certain conditions frequently seen in the research of quasilinear elliptic operators. In our result, it is characteristic that functions which are compared belong to different spaces.
In the paper we present an identity of the Picone type for a class of nonlinear differential operators of the second order involving an arbitrary norm in which is continuously differentiable for and such that is strictly convex for some . Two important special cases are the -Laplacian and the so-called pseudo -Laplacian. The identity is then used to establish a variety of comparison results concerning nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations which involve such operators. We also get criteria...
We investigate the following quasilinear and singular problem,where is an open bounded domain with smooth boundary, , , , and . As usual, if , is arbitrarily large if , and if . We employ variational methods in order to show the existence of at least two distinct (positive) solutions of problem (P) in . While following an approach due to Ambrosetti-Brezis-Cerami, we need to prove two new results of separate interest: a strong comparison principle and a regularity result for solutions...
We study a comparison principle and uniqueness of positive solutions for
the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary value problem associated to quasi-linear elliptic equations with
lower order terms. A model example is given by
The main feature of these equations consists in having a
quadratic gradient term in which singularities are allowed. The
arguments employed here also work to deal with equations having
lack of ellipticity or some dependence on u in the right hand
side.
Furthermore, they...
