On the Liouville property for sublaplacians
Using a weaker version of the Newton-Kantorovich theorem, we provide a discretization result to find finite element solutions of elliptic boundary value problems. Our hypotheses are weaker and under the same computational cost lead to finer estimates on the distances involved and a more precise information on the location of the solution than before.
We prove that for any λ ∈ ℝ, there is an increasing sequence of eigenvalues μₙ(λ) for the nonlinear boundary value problem ⎧ in Ω, ⎨ ⎩ on crtial ∂Ω and we show that the first one μ₁(λ) is simple and isolated; we also prove some results about variations of the density ϱ and the continuity with respect to the parameter λ.
Minimizers of a functional with exponential growth are shown to be smooth. The techniques developed for power growth are not applicable to the exponential case.
A nonlinear system of equations generalizing von Kármán equations is studied. The existence of a solution is proved and the relation between the solutions of the considered system and the solutions of von Kármán system is studied. The system considered is derived in a former paper by Lepig under the assumption of a nonlinear relation between the intensity of stresses and deformations in the constitutive law.
We consider the existence of solutions of the system (*) , l = 1,...,k,
