AbstractWe establish the multiplicity of positive weak solutions for the quasilinear Dirichlet problem−Lpu+ |u|p−2u=h(u)in Ωλ,u= 0 on ∂Ωλ, where Ωλ= λΩ, Ω is a bounded domain in ℝN, λ is a positive parameter,Lpu≐ Δpu+ Δp(u2)uand the nonlinear termh(u) has subcritical growth. We use minimax methods together with the Lyusternik–Schnirelmann category theory to get multiplicity of positive solutions.

AbstractIn this paper, we study the existence of weak solutions of the quasilinear equation \begin{cases} -{\rm div} (a(\vert \nabla u \vert ^2)\nabla u)=\lambda f(x,u) &{\rm in} \ \Omega,\\ u=0 &{\rm on} \ \partial\Omega, \end{cases}where a : ℝ → [0, ∞) is C1 and a nonincreasing continuous function near the origin, the nonlinear term f : Ω × ℝ → ℝ is a Carathéodory function verifying certain superlinear conditions only at zero, and λ is a positive parameter. The existence of the solution relies on C1-estimates and variational arguments.

The semi-linear elliptic equation is an important model in Mathematic, Physics. In this paper, we study the Dirichlet problem of semi-linear elliptic equation with a logarithmic nonlinear term. By using the logarithmic Sobolev inequality, mountain pass theorem and perturbation theorem, we obtain infinitely many nontrivial weak solutions, and also the energy of the solution is positive.

We study the existence of sign-changing multiple interior spike solutions for the following Dirichlet problem [Formula: see text] where Ω is a smooth and bounded domain of ℝN, ε is a small positive parameter, f is a superlinear, subcritical and odd nonlinearity. In particular we prove that if Ω has a plane of symmetry and its intersection with the plane is a two-dimensional strictly convex domain, then, provided that k is even and sufficiently large, a k-peak solution exists with alternate sign peaks aligned along a closed curve near a geodesic of ∂Ω.

We study the zero Dirichlet problem for the equation [Formula: see text] in a bounded domain [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text]. We investigate the relation between two critical curves on the [Formula: see text]-plane corresponding to the threshold of existence of special classes of positive solutions. In particular, in certain neighborhoods of the point [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the first eigenfunction of the [Formula: see text]-Laplacian, we show the existence of two and, which is rather unexpected, three distinct positive solutions, depending on a relation between the exponents [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].

Abstract In this article, we study the following fractional p-Laplacian equation with critical growth and singular non-linearity: (-\Delta_{p})^{s}u=\lambda u^{-q}+u^{\alpha},\quad u>0\quad\text{in }\Omega,% \qquad u=0\quad\text{in }\mathbb{R}^{n}\setminus\Omega, where Ω is a bounded domain in {\mathbb{R}^{n}} with smooth boundary {\partial\Omega} , {n>sp} , {s\in(0,1)} , {\lambda>0} , {0<q\leq 1} and {1<p<\alpha+1\leq p^{*}_{s}} . We use variational methods to show the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions of the above problem with respect to the parameter λ.

AbstractWe consider the equation {-\Delta_{p}u=f(u)} in a smooth bounded domain of {\mathbb{R}^{n}}, where {\Delta_{p}} is the p-Laplace operator. Explicit examples of unbounded stable energy solutions are known if {n\geq p+\frac{4p}{p-1}}. Instead, when {n<p+\frac{4p}{p-1}}, stable solutions have been proved to be bounded only in the radial case or under strong assumptions on f. In this article we solve a long-standing open problem: we prove an interior {C^{\alpha}} bound for stable solutions which holds for every nonnegative {f\in C^{1}} whenever {p\geq 2} and the optimal condition {n<p+\frac{4p}{p-1}} holds. When {p\in(1,2)}, we obtain the same result under the nonsharp assumption {n<5p}. These interior estimates lead to the boundedness of stable and extremal solutions to the associated Dirichlet problem when the domain is strictly convex. Our work extends to the p-Laplacian some of the recent results of Figalli, Ros-Oton, Serra, and the first author for the classical Laplacian, which have established the regularity of stable solutions when {p=2} in the optimal range {n<10}.

This paper is devoted to the study of existence, nonexistence and multiplicity of positive solutions for the semilinear elliptic problem [Formula: see text] where Ω is a bounded domain of ℝN, λ ∈ ℝ and g(x, u) is a Carathéodory function. The obtained results apply to the following classes of nonlinearities: a(x)uq + b(x)up and c(x)(1 + u)p (0 ≤ q < 1 < p). The proofs rely on the sub-super solution method and the mountain pass theorem.
