We establish a3G-theorem for the iterated Green function of(−∆)pm, (p≥1,m≥1), on the unit ballBofℝn(n≥1)with boundary conditions(∂/∂ν)j(−∆)kmu=0on∂B, for0≤k≤p−1and0≤j≤m−1. We exploit this result to study a class of potentials𝒥m,n(p). Next, we aim at proving the existence of positive continuous solutions for the following polyharmonic nonlinear problems(−∆)pmu=h(‧,u), inD(in the sense of distributions),lim|x|→1((−∆)kmu(x)/(1−|x|)m−1)=0, for0≤k≤p−1, whereD=BorB\{0}andhis a Borel measurable function onD×(0,∞)satisfying some appropriate conditions related to𝒥m,n(p).

We establish a 3G-Theorem for the Green's function for an unbounded regular domain D in ℝn(n ≥ 3), with compact boundary. We exploit this result to introduce a new class of potentials K(D) that properly contains the classical Kato class [Formula: see text]. Next, we study the existence and the uniqueness of a positive continuous solution u in [Formula: see text] of the following nonlinear singular elliptic problem [Formula: see text] where φ is a nonnegative Borel measurable function in D × (0, ∞), that belongs to a convex cone which contains, in particular, all functions φ(x, t) = q(x)t-σ, σ ≥ 0 with q ∈ K(D). We give also some estimates on the solution u.

This paper considers aspects of the following problem. Let F(x, θ) be a distribution function, d.f., in x for all θ and a Borel measurable function of θ. Define the mixture (Robbins (1948)), where Φ is a d.f., then it is of interest to determine conditions under which F(x) and F(x, θ) uniquely determine Φ. If there is only one Φ satisfying (1), F is said to be an identifiable mixture. Usually a consistency assumption is used whereby it is presumed that there exists at least one solution to (1).

AbstractWe study the biharmonic equation Δ2u=u−α, 0 < α < 1, in a smooth and bounded domain Ω ⊂ ℝn,n≥ 2, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions. Under some suitable assumptions on Ω related to the positivity of the Green function for the biharmonic operator, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a solution.

Let [Formula: see text] be the Green function of (-Δ)m, m ≥ 1, on the complementary D of the unit closed ball in ℝn, n ≥ 2, with Dirichlet boundary conditions [Formula: see text], 0 ≤ j ≤ m - 1. We establish some estimates on [Formula: see text] including the 3G-Inequality given by (1.3). Next, we introduce a polyharmonic Kato class of functions [Formula: see text] and we exploit the properties of this class to study the existence of positive solutions of some polyharmonic nonlinear elliptic problems.

Abstract We suggest in this paper a global random walk on grid (GRWG) method for solving second order elliptic equations. The equation may have constant or variable coefficients. The GRWS method calculates the solution in any desired family of m prescribed points of the gird in contrast to the classical stochastic differential equation based Feynman–Kac formula, and the conventional random walk on spheres (RWS) algorithm as well. The method uses only N trajectories instead of mN trajectories in the RWS algorithm and the Feynman–Kac formula. The idea is based on the symmetry property of the Green function and a double randomization approach.

We are concerned with the following superlinear fourth-order equationu4t+utφt,−ut=0,   t∈0, 1;−u0=u1=0,  −u′0=a,  −u′1=-b, wherea,−bare nonnegative constants such thata+b>0andφt,−sis a nonnegative continuous function that is required to satisfy some appropriate conditions related to a classKsatisfying suitable integrability condition. Our purpose is to prove the existence, uniqueness, and global behavior of a classical positive solution to the above problem by using a method based on estimates on the Green function and perturbation arguments.

AbstractFirst, we calculate, in a heuristic manner, the Green function of an orthotropic plate in a half-plane which is clamped along the boundary. We then justify the solution and generalize our approach to operators of the form $$(Q(\partial ')-a^2\partial _n^2)(Q(\partial ')-b^2\partial _n^2)$$ ( Q ( ∂ ′ ) - a 2 ∂ n 2 ) ( Q ( ∂ ′ ) - b 2 ∂ n 2 ) (where $$\partial '=(\partial _1,\dots ,\partial _{n-1})$$ ∂ ′ = ( ∂ 1 , ⋯ , ∂ n - 1 ) and $$a>0,b>0,a\ne b)$$ a > 0 , b > 0 , a ≠ b ) with respect to Dirichlet boundary conditions at $$x_n=0.$$ x n = 0 . The Green function $$G_\xi $$ G ξ is represented by a linear combination of fundamental solutions $$E^c$$ E c of $$Q(\partial ')(Q(\partial ')-c^2\partial _n^2),$$ Q ( ∂ ′ ) ( Q ( ∂ ′ ) - c 2 ∂ n 2 ) , $$c\in \{a,b\},$$ c ∈ { a , b } , that are shifted to the source point $$\xi ,$$ ξ , to the mirror point $$-\xi ,$$ - ξ , and to the two additional points $$-\frac{a}{b}\xi $$ - a b ξ and $$-\frac{b}{a}\xi ,$$ - b a ξ , respectively.
