This is the second of a pair of papers describing the use of boundary tracing for boundary value problems. In the preceding article, the theory of the technique was explained and it was shown how it enables one to use known exact solutions of partial differential equations to generate new solutions. Here, we illustrate the use of the technique by applying it to three equations of practical significance: Helmholtz's equation, Poisson's equation and the nonlinear constant mean curvature equation. A variety of new solutions are obtained and the potential of the technique for further application outlined.

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of Palais-Smale sequences associated with the prescribed mean curvature equation on a compact manifold with boundary. We prove that every such sequence converges to a solution of the associated equation plus finitely many “bubbles” obtained by rescaling fundamental solutions of the corresponding Euclidean boundary value problem.

We investigate the differences and similarities of the Dirichlet problem of the mean curvature equation in the Euclidean space and in the Lorentz-Minkowski space. Although the solvability of the Dirichlet problem follows standards techniques of elliptic equations, we focus in showing how the spacelike condition in the Lorentz-Minkowski space allows dropping the hypothesis on the mean convexity, which is required in the Euclidean case.

AbstractWe establish gradient estimates for solutions to the Dirichlet problem for the constant mean curvature equation in hyperbolic space. We obtain these estimates on bounded strictly convex domains by using the maximum principles theory of Φ-functions of Payne and Philippin. These estimates are then employed to solve the Dirichlet problem when the mean curvature H satisfies H < 1 under suitable boundary conditions.

In this paper, we obtain new parametric uniqueness results for complete constant weighted mean curvature hypersurfaces under suitable geometric assumptions in weighted warped products. Furthermore, we also prove very general Bernstein type results for the constant mean curvature equation for entire graphs in these ambient spaces.
