Existence and L∞ estimates of some Mountain-Pass type solutions

José Maria Gomes (2009)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We prove the existence of a positive solution to the BVP ( Φ ( t ) u ' ( t ) ) ' = f ( t , u ( t ) ) , u ' ( 0 ) = u ( 1 ) = 0 , imposing some conditions on Φ and f. In particular, we assume Φ ( t ) f ( t , u ) to be decreasing in t. Our method combines variational and topological arguments and can be applied to some elliptic problems in annular domains. An L bound for the solution is provided by the L norm of any test function with negative energy.

Existence of solutions and of multiple solutions for nonlinear nonsmooth periodic systems

Evgenia H. Papageorgiou, Nikolaos S. Papageorgiou (2004)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

In this paper we examine nonlinear periodic systems driven by the vectorial p -Laplacian and with a nondifferentiable, locally Lipschitz nonlinearity. Our approach is based on the nonsmooth critical point theory and uses the subdifferential theory for locally Lipschitz functions. We prove existence and multiplicity results for the “sublinear” problem. For the semilinear problem (i.e. p = 2 ) using a nonsmooth multidimensional version of the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition, we prove an existence theorem...
