Stationary solutions of the generalized Smoluchowski-Poisson equation

Robert Stańczy (2008)

Banach Center Publications

The existence of steady states in the microcanonical case for a system describing the interaction of gravitationally attracting particles with a self-similar pressure term is proved. The system generalizes the Smoluchowski-Poisson equation. The presented theory covers the case of the model with diffusion that obeys the Fermi-Dirac statistic.

Stationary states for a two-dimensional singular Schrödinger equation

Paolo Caldiroli, Roberta Musina (2001)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

In questo articolo studiamo problemi di Dirichlet singolari, lineari e semilineari, della forma x 2 Δ u = f u in Ω , u = 0 su Ω , dove Ω è un dominio in R 2 e f u = λ u o f u = λ u + u p - 2 u con p > 2 (o nonlinearità più generali). In tali problemi bidimensionali emergono alcune difficoltà a causa della non validità della disuguaglianza di Hardy in R 2 e a causa delle invarianze dell'equazione - x 2 Δ u = f u . Pertanto opportune condizioni su λ e Ω sono necessarie al fine di garantire l'esistenza di una soluzione positiva. Per esempio, se Γ 0 è una curva non costante...

Structure of stable solutions of a one-dimensional variational problem

Nung Kwan Yip (2006)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We prove the periodicity of all H2-local minimizers with low energy for a one-dimensional higher order variational problem. The results extend and complement an earlier work of Stefan Müller which concerns the structure of global minimizer. The energy functional studied in this work is motivated by the investigation of coherent solid phase transformations and the competition between the effects from regularization and formation of small scale structures. With a special choice of a bilinear double...

Surface integral and Gauss-Ostrogradskij theorem from the viewpoint of applications

Alexander Ženíšek (1999)

Applications of Mathematics

Making use of a surface integral defined without use of the partition of unity, trace theorems and the Gauss-Ostrogradskij theorem are proved in the case of three-dimensional domains Ω with a Lipschitz-continuous boundary for functions belonging to the Sobolev spaces H 1 , p ( ) ( 1 ...

Symmetry of local minimizers for the three-dimensional Ginzburg–Landau functional

Vincent Millot, Adriano Pisante (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We classify nonconstant entire local minimizers of the standard Ginzburg–Landau functional for maps in H loc 1 ( 3 ; 3 ) satisfying a natural energy bound. Up to translations and rotations,such solutions of the Ginzburg–Landau system are given by an explicit solution equivariant under the action of the orthogonal group.

Symmetry of minimizers with a level surface parallel to the boundary

Giulio Ciraolo, Rolando Magnanini, Shigeru Sakaguchi (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We consider the functional Ω ( v ) = Ω [ f ( | D v | ) - v ] d x , where Ω is a bounded domain and f is a convex function. Under general assumptions on f , Crasta [Cr1] has shown that if Ω admits a minimizer in W 0 1 , 1 ( Ω ) depending only on the distance from the boundary of Ω , then Ω must be a ball. With some restrictions on f , we prove that spherical symmetry can be obtained only by assuming that the minimizer has one level surface parallel to the boundary (i.e. it has only a level surface in common with the distance). We then discuss how these...
