Breaking of resonance and regularizing effect of a first order quasi-linear term in some elliptic equations
In this paper, we obtain some existence theorems of nonnegative solutions with compact support for homogeneous Dirichlet elliptic problems; we also extend these results to parabolis systems.Supersolution and comparison principles are our main ingredients.
We prove comparison principles for viscosity solutions of nonlinear second order, uniformly elliptic equations, which extend previous results of P. L. Lions, R. Jensen and H. Ishii. Some basic pointwise estimates for classical solutions are also extended to continuous viscosity solutions.
Given a three-dimensional manifold with boundary, the Cartan-Hadamard theorem implies that there are obstructions to filling the interior of the manifold with a complete metric of negative curvature. In this paper, we show that any three-dimensional manifold with boundary can be filled conformally with a complete metric satisfying a pinching condition: given any small constant, the ratio of the largest sectional curvature to (the absolute value of) the scalar curvature is less than this constant....
The goal of the paper is the study of the contact problem of two elastic bodies which is applicable to the solution of displacements and stresses of the earth continuum and the tunnel wall. In this first part the variational formulation of the continuous and discrete model is stated. The second part covers the proof of convergence of finite element method to the solution of continuous problem while in the third part some practical applications are illustrated.
