AbstractIn this paper we study the existence and nonexistence of multiple positive solutions for the Dirichlet problem:$$ -\Delta{u}-\mu\frac{u}{|x|^2}=\lambda(1+u)^p,\quad u\gt0,\quad u\in H^1_0(\varOmega), \tag{*} $$where $0\leq\mu\lt(\frac{1}{2}(N-2))^2$, $\lambda\gt0$, $1\ltp\leq(N+2)/(N-2)$, $N\geq3$. Using the sub–supersolution method and the variational approach, we prove that there exists a positive number $\lambda^*$ such that problem (*) possesses at least two positive solutions if $\lambda\in(0,\lambda^*)$, a unique positive solution if $\lambda=\lambda^*$, and no positive solution if $\lambda\in(\lambda^*,\infty)$.

In this paper, we study the existence and multiplicity of solutions for the following fractional problem involving the Hardy potential and concave–convex nonlinearities: [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is a smooth bounded domain in [Formula: see text] containing [Formula: see text] in its interior, and [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] which may change sign in [Formula: see text]. We use the variational methods and the Nehari manifold decomposition to prove that this problem has at least two positive solutions for [Formula: see text] sufficiently small. The variational approach requires that [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text], the latter being the best fractional Hardy constant on [Formula: see text].

We consider the boundary Hardy–Hénon equation \[ -\Delta u=(1-|x|)^{\alpha} u^{p},\ \ x\in B_1(0), \] where $B_1(0)\subset \mathbb {R}^{N}$   $(N\geq 3)$ is a ball of radial $1$ centred at $0$ , $p>0$ and $\alpha \in \mathbb {R}$ . We are concerned with the estimate, existence and nonexistence of positive solutions of the equation, in particular, the equation with Dirichlet boundary condition. For the case $0< p<({N+2})/({N-2})$ , we establish the estimate of positive solutions. When $\alpha \leq -2$ and $p>1$ , we give some conclusions with respect to nonexistence. When $\alpha >-2$ and $1< p<({N+2})/({N-2})$ , we obtain the existence of positive solution for the corresponding Dirichlet problem. When $0< p\leq 1$ and $\alpha \leq -2$ , we show the nonexistence of positive solutions. When $0< p<1$ , $\alpha >-2$ , we give some results with respect to existence and uniqueness of positive solutions.

We will show that under suitable conditions onfandh, there exists a positive numberλ∗such that the nonhomogeneous elliptic equation−Δu+u=λ(f(x,u)+h(x))inΩ,u∈H01(Ω),N≥2, has at least two positive solutions ifλ∈(0,λ∗), a unique positive solution ifλ=λ∗, and no positive solution ifλ>λ∗, whereΩis the entire space or an exterior domain or an unbounded cylinder domain or the complement in a strip domain of a bounded domain. We also obtain some properties of the set of solutions.

AbstractWe consider a parametric nonlinear, nonhomogeneous Dirichlet problem driven by the (p, q)-Laplacian with a reaction involving a singular term plus a superlinear reaction which does not satisfy the Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz condition. The main goal of the paper is to look for positive solutions and our approach is based on the use of variational tools combined with suitable truncations and comparison techniques. We prove a bifurcation-type theorem describing in a precise way the dependence of the set of positive solutions on the parameter $$\lambda $$ λ . Moreover, we produce minimal positive solutions and determine the monotonicity and continuity properties of the minimal positive solution map.

We consider the logistic equation − Δu = a (x) u − b (x) up on all of RN with possibly unbounded coefficients near infinity. We show that under suitable growth conditions of the coefficients, the behaviour of the positive solutions of the logistic equation can be largely determined. We also show that certain linear eigenvalue problems on all of RN have principal eigenfunctions that become unbounded near infinity at an exponential rate. Using these results, we finally show that the logistic equation has a unique positive solution under suitable growth restrictions for its coefficients.

We prove that the Schrödinger systemwhere n = 1, 2, 3, N ≥ 2, λ1 = λ2 = … = λN = 1, βij = βji > 0 for i, j = 1, …, N, has a unique positive solution up to translation if the βij (i ≠ j) are comparatively large with respect to the βjj. The same conclusion holds if n = 1 and if the βij (i ≠ j) are comparatively small with respect to the βjj. Moreover, this solution is a ground state in the sense that it has the least energy among all non-zero solutions provided that the βij (i ≠ j) are comparatively large with respect to the βjj, and it has the least energy among all non-trivial solutions provided that n = 1 and the βij (i ≠ j) are comparatively small with respect to the βjj. In particular, these conclusions hold if βij = (i ≠ j) for some β and either β > max{β11, β22, …, βNN} or n = 1 and 0 < β < min{β11, β22, …, βNN}.

AbstractWe consider a nonlinear Dirichlet problem driven by the (p, q)-Laplacian and with a reaction which is parametric and exhibits the combined effects of a singular term and of a superdiffusive one. We prove an existence and nonexistence result for positive solutions depending on the value of the parameter $$\lambda \in \overset{\circ }{{\mathbb {R}}}_+=(0,+\infty )$$ λ ∈ R ∘ + = ( 0 , + ∞ ) .
