An existence result for an interior electromagnetic casting problem

Mohammed Barkatou, Diaraf Seck, Idrissa Ly (2006)

Open Mathematics

This paper deals with an interior electromagnetic casting (free boundary) problem. We begin by showing that the associated shape optimization problem has a solution which is of class C 2. Then, using the shape derivative and the maximum principle, we give a sufficient condition that the minimum obtained solves our problem.

An existence theorem for the Yamabe problem on manifolds with boundary

Simon Brendle, Szu-Yu Sophie Chen (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Let ( M , g ) be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. We consider the problem (first studied by Escobar in 1992) of finding a conformal metric with constant scalar curvature in the interior and zero mean curvature on the boundary. Using a local test function construction, we are able to settle most cases left open by Escobar’s work. Moreover, we reduce the remaining cases to the positive mass theorem.

An Hadamard maximum principle for the biplacian on hyperbolic manifolds

Håkan Hedenmalm (1999)

Journées équations aux dérivées partielles

We prove the existence of a maximum principle for operators of the type Δ ω - 1 Δ , for weights ω with log ω subharmonic. It is associated with certain simply connected subdomains that are produced by a Hele-Shaw flow emanating from a given point in the domain. For constant weight, these are the circular disks in the domain. The principle is equivalent to the following statement. THEOREM. Suppose ω is logarithmically subharmonic on the unit disk, and that the weight times area measure is a reproducing measure...
