Multiplicity results for -sublinear -Laplacian problems involving indefinite eigenvalue problems via Morse theory.
In this paper, we consider the problem of multiplicity of conformal metrics of prescribed scalar curvature on standard spheres . Under generic conditions we establish someMorse Inequalities at Infinity, which give a lower bound on the number of solutions to the above problem in terms of the total contribution of its critical points at Infinityto the difference of topology between the level sets of the associated Euler-Lagrange functional. As a by-product of our arguments we derive a new existence...
In this paper we present some recent results concerning convergence rate estimates for finite-difference schemes approximating boundary-value problems. Special attention is given to the problem of minimal smoothness of coefficients in partial differential equations necessary for obtaining the results.
This paper is a survey of articles [5, 6, 8, 9, 13, 17, 18]. We are interested in the influence of small geometrical perturbations on the solution of elliptic problems. The cases of a single inclusion or several well-separated inclusions have been deeply studied. We recall here techniques to construct an asymptotic expansion. Then we consider moderately close inclusions, i.e. the distance between the inclusions tends to zero more slowly than their characteristic size. We provide a complete asymptotic...
In this note, the existence of non-negative solutions for some multivalued non-positone elliptic problems is studied.
Let X be a metric space with doubling measure and L a one-to-one operator of type ω having a bounded H∞ -functional calculus in L2(X) satisfying the reinforced (pL; qL) off-diagonal estimates on balls, where pL ∊ [1; 2) and qL ∊ (2;∞]. Let φ : X × [0;∞) → [0;∞) be a function such that φ (x;·) is an Orlicz function, φ(·;t) ∊ A∞(X) (the class of uniformly Muckenhoupt weights), its uniformly critical upper type index l(φ) ∊ (0;1] and φ(·; t) satisfies the uniformly reverse Hölder inequality of order...
The four natural boundary problems for the weighted form Laplacians acting on polynomial differential forms in the -dimensional Euclidean ball are solved explicitly. Moreover, an algebraic algorithm for generating a solution from the boundary data is given in each case.
The goal of this paper is to prove the first and second order optimality conditions for some control problems governed by semilinear elliptic equations with pointwise control constraints and finitely many equality and inequality pointwise state constraints. To carry out the analysis we formulate a regularity assumption which is equivalent to the first order optimality conditions. Though the presence of pointwise state constraints leads to a discontinuous adjoint state, we prove that the optimal...

We study a two-dimensional model for micromagnetics, which consists in an energy functional over -valued vector fields. Bounded-energy configurations tend to be planar, except in small regions which can be described as vortices (Bloch lines in physics). As the characteristic “exchange-length” tends to 0, they converge to planar divergence-free unit norm vector fields which jump along line singularities. We derive lower bounds for the energy, which are explicit functions of the jumps of the limit....
