In this paper, we are concerned with the physically engaging pseudo-relativistic Schrödinger system: \[ \begin{cases} \left(-\Delta+m^{2}\right)^{s}u(x)=f(x,u,v,\nabla u) & \hbox{in } \Omega,\\ \left(-\Delta+m^{2}\right)^{t}v(x)=g(x,u,v,\nabla v) & \hbox{in } \Omega,\\ u>0,v>0 & \hbox{in } \Omega, \\ u=v\equiv 0 & \hbox{in } \mathbb{R}^{N}\setminus\Omega, \end{cases} \] where $s,t\in (0,1)$ and the mass $m>0.$ By using the direct method of moving plane, we prove the strict monotonicity, symmetry and uniqueness for positive solutions to the above system in a bounded domain, unbounded domain, $\mathbb {R}^{N}$ , $\mathbb {R}^{N}_{+}$ and a coercive epigraph domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb {R}^{N}$ , respectively.

In a recent paper [2], Bushard established and applied a comparison theorem for positive solutions to the equation:in an arbitrary bounded domain D of Euclidean w-space Rn. The proof of these results depended on the absence of mixed derivatives of u in the equation considered.

In this paper, we study the nonexistence of positive solutions for the following elliptic equation [Formula: see text] where Lαu = Δxu + (α + 1)2|x|2αΔyu, α > 0, (x, y) ∈ ℝm × ℝk. We will prove that this problem possesses no positive solutions under some assumptions on the nonlinear term f. The main technique we use is the moving plane method in an integral form.

AbstractConsider the p(x)-Laplacian–Dirichlet problem with sign-changing non-linearity of the form where Ω ⊂ ℝN is a bounded domain, p ∈ C0(Ω) and infx∈Ωp(x) > 1, m ∈ L∞(Ω) is non-negative, f : ℝ → ℝ is continuous and f(0) > 0, the coefficient a ∈ L∞(Ω) is sign-changing in (Ω). We give some sufficient conditions to assure the existence of a positive solution to the problem for sufficiently small λ > 0. Our results extend the corresponding results established in the p-Laplacian case to the p(x)-Laplacian case.

We study the existence, nonexistence and multiplicity of non-negative solutions for the family of problemswhere Ω is a bounded domain in ℝ2 and λ > 0 is a parameter. The coefficient a(x) is permitted to change sign. The techniques used in the proofs are a combination of upper and lower solutions, the Trudinger–Moser inequality and variational methods. Note that when f(x, u) = 0 the equation is of Liouville type.

AbstractIn this paper, we obtain gradient estimates of the positive solutions to weightedp-Laplacian type equations with a gradient-dependent nonlinearity of the form0.1$${\rm div }( \vert x \vert ^\sigma \vert \nabla u \vert ^{p-2}\nabla u) = \vert x \vert ^{-\tau }u^q \vert \nabla u \vert ^m\quad {\rm in}\;\Omega^*: = \Omega {\rm \setminus }\{ 0\} .$$Here,$\Omega \subseteq {\open R}^N$denotes a domain containing the origin with$N\ges 2$, whereas$m,q\in [0,\infty )$,$1<p\les N+\sigma $and$q>\max \{p-m-1,\sigma +\tau -1\}$. The main difficulty arises from the dependence of the right-hand side of (0.1) onx,uand$ \vert \nabla u \vert $, without any upper bound restriction on the powermof$ \vert \nabla u \vert $. Our proof of the gradient estimates is based on a two-step process relying on a modified version of the Bernstein's method. As a by-product, we extend the range of applicability of the Liouville-type results known for (0.1).

Consider the system where λ is a positive parameter and Ω is a bounded domain in RN. We prove the existence of a large positive solution for λ large when limx → ∞ (f(Mg(x))/x) = 0 for every M > 0. In particular, we do not need any monotonicity assumptions on f, g, nor any sign conditions on f(0), g(0).

Let Ω ⊂ RN be a bounded domain. We consider the nonlinear problem and prove that the existence of positive solutions of the above nonlinear problem is closely related to the existence of non-negative solutions of the following linear problem: .In particular, if p > (N + 2)/(N − 2), then the existence of positive solutions of nonlinear problem is equivalent to the existence of non-negative solutions of the linear problem (for more details, we refer to theorems 1.2 and 1.3 in § 1 of this paper).

This study concerns the existence of positive solutions to classes of boundary value problems of the form−∆u = g(x,u), x ∈ Ω,u(x) = 0, x ∈ ∂Ω,where ∆ denote the Laplacian operator, Ω is a smooth bounded domain in RN (N ≥ 2) with ∂Ω of class C2, and connected, and g(x, 0) < 0 for some x ∈ Ω (semipositone problems). By using the method of sub-super solutions we prove the existence of positive solution to special types of g(x,u).
