Multiplicity results for the prescribed scalar curvature on low spheres

Mohamed Ben Ayed, Mohameden Ould Ahmedou (2008)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

In this paper, we consider the problem of multiplicity of conformal metrics of prescribed scalar curvature on standard spheres 𝕊 3 , 𝕊 4 . 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...

Multiscale expansion and numerical approximation for surface defects⋆

V. Bonnaillie-Noël, D. Brancherie, M. Dambrine, F. Hérau, S. Tordeux, G. Vial (2011)

ESAIM: Proceedings

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.

Musielak-Orlicz-Hardy Spaces Associated with Operators Satisfying Reinforced Off-Diagonal Estimates

The Anh Bui, Jun Cao, Luong Dang Ky, Dachun Yang, Sibei Yang (2013)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

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...

Natural boundary value problems for weighted form laplacians

Wojciech Kozłowski, Antoni Pierzchalski (2008)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

The four natural boundary problems for the weighted form Laplacians L = a d δ + b δ d , a , b > 0 acting on polynomial differential forms in the n -dimensional Euclidean ball are solved explicitly. Moreover, an algebraic algorithm for generating a solution from the boundary data is given in each case.

Necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for elliptic control problems with finitely many pointwise state constraints

Eduardo Casas (2008)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

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...

Néel and Cross-Tie wall energies for planar micromagnetic configurations

François Alouges, Tristan Rivière, Sylvia Serfaty (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study a two-dimensional model for micromagnetics, which consists in an energy functional over S 2 -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....
