This paper proves the local well-posedness of strong solutions to a two-phase model with magnetic field and vacuum in a bounded domain $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^3$ without the standard compatibility conditions.

We study the multiplicity of solutions for a class of p(x)-Laplacian equations involving the critical exponent. Under suitable assumptions, we obtain a sequence of radially symmetric solutions associated with a sequence of positive energies going toward infinity.

Our main purpose is to establish the existence of weak solutions of second order quasilinear elliptic systems ⎧ $-{\Delta }_{p}u+{\left|u\right|}^{p-2}u=f_{1\lambda ₁}{\left(x\right)\left|u\right|}^{q-2}u+2\alpha /(\alpha +\beta )g_{\mu }{\left|u\right|}^{\alpha -2}u{\left|v\right|}^{\beta }$, x ∈ Ω, ⎨ $-{\Delta }_{p}v+{\left|v\right|}^{p-2}v=f_{2\lambda ₂}{\left(x\right)\left|v\right|}^{q-2}v+2\beta /(\alpha +\beta )g_{\mu }{\left|u\right|}^{\alpha }{\left|v\right|}^{\beta -2}v$, x ∈ Ω, ⎩ u = v = 0, x∈ ∂Ω, where 1 < q < p < N and $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^N$ is an open bounded smooth domain. Here λ₁, λ₂, μ ≥ 0 and $f_{i{\lambda }_i}\left(x\right)={\lambda }_i{f}_{i+}\left(x\right)+f_{i-}\left(x\right)$ (i = 1,2) are sign-changing functions, where $f_{i\pm }\left(x\right)=max\pm f_i\left(x\right),0$, $g_{\mu }\left(x\right)=a\left(x\right)+\mu b\left(x\right)$, and ${\Delta }_{p}u={div\left(\right|\nabla u|}^{p-2}\nabla u)$ denotes the p-Laplace operator. We use variational methods.

This paper is mainly concerned with a class of optimal control problems of systems governed by the nonlinear dynamic systems on time scales. Introducing the reasonable weak solution of nonlinear dynamic systems, the existence of the weak solution for the nonlinear dynamic systems on time scales and its properties are presented. Discussing L1-strong-weak lower semicontinuity of integral functional, we give sufficient conditions for the existence of optimal controls. Using integration by parts formula...

We investigate the behavior of weak solutions to the nonlocal Robin problem for linear elliptic divergence second order equations in a neighborhood of a boundary corner point. We find an exponent of the solution's decreasing rate under minimal assumptions on the problem coefficients.

In this article, we study the existence of nontrivial weak solutions for the following boundary value problem: $$-{\Delta }_{\gamma }u=f(x,u)\text{in}\Omega ,u=0\text{on}\partial \Omega ,$$ where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain with smooth boundary in ${ℝ}^N$, $\Omega \cap \{x_j=0\}\ne \varnothing$ for some $j$, ${\Delta }_{\gamma }$ is a subelliptic linear operator of the type $${\Delta }_{\gamma }:=\sum _{j=1}^N{\partial }_{x_j}\left({\gamma }_j^2{\partial }_{x_j}\right),{\partial }_{x_j}:=\frac{\partial }{\partial x_j},N\ge 2,$$ where $\gamma \left(x\right)=({\gamma }_1\left(x\right),{\gamma }_2\left(x\right),\cdots ,{\gamma }_N\left(x\right))$ satisfies certain homogeneity conditions and degenerates at the coordinate hyperplanes and the nonlinearity $f(x,\xi )$ is of subcritical growth and does not satisfy the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz (AR) condition.

The paper deals with a nonlocal problem related to the equilibrium of a confined plasma in a Tokamak machine. This problem involves terms $u_{*}^{\text{'}}\left(\right|u>u\left(x\right)\left|\right)$ and $|u>u(x\left)\right|$, which are neither local, nor continuous, nor monotone. By using the Galerkin approximate method and establishing some properties of the decreasing rearrangement, we prove the existence of solutions to such problem.
