On infinitely many solutions of a semilinear elliptic eigenvalue problem
We study properties of Lipschitz truncations of Sobolev functions with constant and variable exponent. As non-trivial applications we use the Lipschitz truncations to provide a simplified proof of an existence result for incompressible power-law like fluids presented in [Frehse et al., SIAM J. Math. Anal34 (2003) 1064–1083]. We also establish new existence results to a class of incompressible electro-rheological fluids.
The Schwarz alternating method can be used to solve elliptic boundary value problems on domains which consist of two or more overlapping subdomains. The solution is approximated by an infinite sequence of functions which results from solving a sequence of elliptic boundary value problems in each of the subdomains. In this paper, proofs of convergence of some Schwarz alternating methods for nonlinear elliptic problems which are known to have solutions by the monotone method (also known as the method...

We consider the Neumann problem involving the critical Sobolev exponent and a nonhomogeneous boundary condition. We establish the existence of two solutions. We use the method of sub- and supersolutions, a local minimization and the mountain-pass principle.
In this paper, we consider the existence and nonexistence of positive solutions of degenerate elliptic systems where is the -Laplace operator, and is a -domain in . We prove an analogue of [7, 16] for the eigenvalue problem with , and obtain a non-existence result of positive solutions for the general systems.
We consider a class of incompressible fluids whose viscosities depend on the pressure and the shear rate. Suitable boundary conditions on the traction at the inflow/outflow part of boundary are given. As an advantage of this, the mean value of the pressure over the domain is no more a free parameter which would have to be prescribed otherwise. We prove the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions (the latter for small data) and discuss particular applications of the results.
The paper deals with the generalized Signorini problem. The used method of pseudomonotone semicoercive operator inequality is introduced in the paper by O. John. The existence result for smooth domains from the paper by O. John is extended to technically significant "angular" domains. The crucial point of the proof is the estimation of the nonlinear term which appears in the operator form of the problem. The substantial technical difficulties connected with non-smoothness of the boundary are overcome...
