We prove the existence of (a pair of) least energy sign changing solutions of [Formula: see text] when Ω is a bounded domain in ℝN, N = 5 and λ is slightly smaller than λ1, the first eigenvalue of -Δ with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions on Ω.

In this paper we study a nonlinear hemivariational inequality involving the p-Laplacian. Our approach is variational and uses a recent nonsmooth Linking Theorem, due to Kourogenis and Papageorgiou (2000). The use of the Linking Theorem instead of the Mountain Pass Theorem allows us to assume an asymptotic behaviour of the generalised potential function which goes beyond the principal eigenvalue of the negative p-Laplacian with Dirichlet boundary conditions.

By using the mountain pass lemma, we study the existence of positive solutions for the equation−Δu(x)=λ(u|u|+u)(x)forx∈Ωtogether with Dirichlet boundary conditions and show that for everyλ<λ1, whereλ1is the first eigenvalue of−Δu=λuinΩwith the Dirichlet boundary conditions, the equation has a positive solution while no positive solution exists forλ≥λ1.

AbstractWe investigate minimization and maximization of the principal eigenvalue of the Laplacian under Dirichlet boundary conditions in case the weight has indefinite sign and varies in a class of rearrangements. Biologically, such optimization problems are motivated by the question of determining the most convenient spatial arrangement of favorable and unfavorable resources for a species to survive or to decline. The question may have practical importance in the context of reserve design or pest control.

AbstractWe study a system of quasilinear eigenvalue problems with Dirichlet boundary conditions on complete compact Riemannian manifolds. In particular, Cheng comparison estimates and the inequality of Faber–Krahn for the first eigenvalue of a {(p,q)}-Laplacian are recovered. Lastly, we reprove a Cheeger-type estimate for the p-Laplacian, {1<p<\infty}, from where a lower bound estimate in terms of Cheeger’s constant for the first eigenvalue of a {(p,q)}-Laplacian is built. As a corollary, the first eigenvalue converges to Cheeger’s constant as {p,q\to 1,1}.

Abstract We find the most general solution to Chern-Simons AdS3 gravity in Fefferman-Graham gauge. The connections are equivalent to geometries that have a non-trivial curved boundary, characterized by a 2-dimensional vielbein and a spin connection. We define a variational principle for Dirichlet boundary conditions and find the boundary stress tensor in the Chern-Simons formalism. Using this variational principle as the departure point, we show how to treat other choices of boundary conditions in this formalism, such as, including the mixed boundary conditions corresponding to a $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ -deformation.

Abstract The gravitational charge algebra of generic asymptotically locally (A)dS spacetimes is derived in n dimensions. The analysis is performed in the Starobinsky/Fefferman-Graham gauge, without assuming any further boundary condition than the minimal falloffs for conformal compactification. In particular, the boundary structure is allowed to fluctuate and plays the role of source yielding some symplectic flux at the boundary. Using the holographic renormalization procedure, the divergences are removed from the symplectic structure, which leads to finite expressions. The charges associated with boundary diffeomorphisms are generically non-vanishing, non-integrable and not conserved, while those associated with boundary Weyl rescalings are non-vanishing only in odd dimensions due to the presence of Weyl anomalies in the dual theory. The charge algebra exhibits a field-dependent 2-cocycle in odd dimensions. When the general framework is restricted to three-dimensional asymptotically AdS spacetimes with Dirichlet boundary conditions, the 2-cocycle reduces to the Brown-Henneaux central extension. The analysis is also specified to leaky boundary conditions in asymptotically locally (A)dS spacetimes that lead to the Λ-BMS asymptotic symmetry group. In the flat limit, the latter contracts into the BMS group in n dimensions.
