AbstractThis paper characterizes whether or not\Sigma_{\infty}\equiv\lim_{\lambda\uparrow\infty}\sigma[\mathcal{P}+\lambda m(% x,t),\mathfrak{B},Q_{T}]is finite, where {m\gneq 0} is T-periodic and {\sigma[\mathcal{P}+\lambda m(x,t),\mathfrak{B},Q_{T}]} stands for the principal eigenvalue of the parabolic operator {\mathcal{P}+\lambda m(x,t)} in {Q_{T}\equiv\Omega\times[0,T]} subject to a general boundary operator of mixed type, {\mathfrak{B}}, on {\partial\Omega\times[0,T]}. Then this result is applied to discuss the nature of the territorial refuges in periodic competitive environments.

AbstractWe study the generalized eigenvalue problem in {\mathbb{R}^{N}} for a general convex nonlinear elliptic operator which is locally elliptic and positively 1-homogeneous. Generalizing [H. Berestycki and L. Rossi, Generalizations and properties of the principal eigenvalue of elliptic operators in unbounded domains, Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 68 2015, 6, 1014–1065], we consider three different notions of generalized eigenvalues and compare them. We also discuss the maximum principles and uniqueness of principal eigenfunctions.

We prove the existence of a simple, isolated, positive principal eigenvalue for the quasilinear elliptic equation−Δpu=λg(x)|u|p−2u,x∈ℝN,lim|x|→+∞u(x)=0, whereΔpu=div(|∇u|p−2∇u)is thep-Laplacian operator and the weight functiong(x), being bounded, changes sign and is negative and away from zero at infinity.

AbstractWe consider a Robin problem driven by the (p, q)-Laplacian plus an indefinite potential term. The reaction is either resonant with respect to the principal eigenvalue or $$(p-1)$$ ( p - 1 ) -superlinear but without satisfying the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition. For both cases we show that the problem has at least five nontrivial smooth solutions ordered and with sign information. When $$q=2$$ q = 2 (a (p, 2)-equation), we show that we can slightly improve the conclusions of the two multiplicity theorems.

Let D ⊂ Rd be a bounded domain and let [Formula: see text] denote the space of probability measures on D. Consider a Brownian motion in D which is killed at the boundary and which, while alive, jumps instantaneously according to a spatially dependent exponential clock with intensity γV to a new point, according to a distribution [Formula: see text]. From its new position after the jump, the process repeats the above behavior independently of what has transpired previously. The generator of this process is an extension of the operator -Lγ,μ, defined by [Formula: see text] with the Dirichlet boundary condition, where Cμ is the "μ-centering" operator defined by [Formula: see text] The principal eigenvalue, λ0(γ, μ), of Lγ, μ governs the exponential rate of decay of the probability of not exiting D for large time. We study the asymptotic behavior of λ0(γ, μ) as γ → ∞. In particular, if μ possesses a density in a neighborhood of the boundary, which we call μ, then [Formula: see text] If μ and all its derivatives up to order k - 1 vanish on the boundary, but the kth derivative does not vanish identically on the boundary, then λ0(γ, μ) behaves asymptotically like [Formula: see text], for an explicit constant ck.
