On a Brezis-Nirenberg type problem.
We study the boundary value problem in , on , where is a smooth bounded domain in . Our attention is focused on two cases when , where for any or for any . In the former case we show the existence of infinitely many weak solutions for any . In the latter we prove that if is large enough then there exists a nontrivial weak solution. Our approach relies on the variable exponent theory of generalized Lebesgue-Sobolev spaces, combined with a -symmetric version for even functionals...
We provide new local and semilocal convergence results for Newton's method. We introduce Lipschitz-type hypotheses on the mth-Frechet derivative. This way we manage to enlarge the radius of convergence of Newton's method. Numerical examples are also provided to show that our results guarantee convergence where others do not.
In this paper we consider an elliptic system at resonance and bifurcation type with zero Dirichlet condition. We use a Lyapunov-Schmidt approach and we will give applications to Biharmonic Equations.
We re-examine a quadratically convergent method using divided differences of order one in order to approximate a locally unique solution of an equation in a Banach space setting [4, 5, 7]. Recently in [4, 5, 7], using Lipschitz conditions, and a Newton-Kantorovich type approach, we provided a local as well as a semilocal convergence analysis for this method which compares favorably to other methods using two function evaluations such as the Steffensen’s method [1, 3, 13]. Here, we provide an analysis...
In the paper by Hilout and Piétrus (2006) a semilocal convergence analysis was given for the secant-like method to solve generalized equations using Hölder-type conditions introduced by the first author (for nonlinear equations). Here, we show that this convergence analysis can be refined under weaker hypothesis, and less computational cost. Moreover finer error estimates on the distances involved and a larger radius of convergence are obtained.
The paper is about a sub-supersolution method for the prescribed mean curvature problem. We formulate the problem as a variational inequality and propose appropriate concepts of sub- and supersolutions for such inequality. Existence and enclosure results for solutions and extremal solutions between sub- and supersolutions are established.
