We study the following bifurcation problem in any bounded domainΩinℝN:{Apu:=−∑i,j=1N∂∂xi[(∑m,k=1Namk(x)∂u∂xm∂u∂xk)p−22aij(x)∂u∂xj]=                         λg(x)|u|p−2u+f(x,u,λ),u∈W01,p(Ω).. We prove that the principal eigenvalueλ1of the eigenvalue problem{Apu=λg(x)|u|p−2u,u∈W01,p(Ω),is a bifurcation point of the problem mentioned above.

In this paper, we apply the Ljusternik–Schnirelmann theory to deal with the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the fractional Laplace operator. It shows that there exists a simple and isolated principal eigenvalue [Formula: see text] such that under certain conditions on the perturbation function [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] is a bifurcation point of the problem [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] is a smooth and bounded domain, [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] satisfies the Carathéodory condition in the first two variables. There are two distinct unbounded subcontinua [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], consisting of the continuum [Formula: see text] emanating from [Formula: see text]. As an application of the unilateral global bifurcation result, we extend our investigation to the existence of constant sign solutions for a class of related nonlinear fractional Laplace problems. Some known results on the fractional Laplace problem in the literature are generalized.

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.

Let m: [ 0, ∞) → [ 0, ∞) be an increasing continuous function with m(t) = 0 if and only if t = 0, m(t) → ∞ as t → ∞ and Ω C ℝN a bounded domain. In this note we show that for every r > 0 there exists a function ur solving the minimization problemwhere Moreover, the function ur is a weak solution to the corresponding Euler–Lagrange equationfor some λ > 0. We emphasize that no Δ2-condition is needed for M or M; so the associated functionals are not continuously differentiable, in general.

Abstract We study integral operators $\mathcal{L}u\left( \chi \right)=\int{_{_{\mathbb{R}}\mathbb{N}}\psi \left( u\left( x \right)-u\left( y \right) \right)J\left( x-y \right)dy}$of the type of the fractional p-Laplacian operator, and the properties of the corresponding Orlicz and Sobolev-Orlicz spaces. In particular we show a Poincaré inequality and a Sobolev inequality, depending on the singularity at the origin of the kernel J considered, which may be very weak. Both inequalities lead to compact inclusions. We then use those properties to study the associated elliptic problem $\mathcal{L}u=f$in a bounded domain $\Omega ,$and boundary condition u ≡ 0 on ${{\Omega }^{c}};$both cases f = f(x) and f = f(u) are considred, including the generalized eigenvalue problem $f\left( u \right)=\lambda \psi \left( u \right).$

Abstract In this paper we study the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem $$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle -\Delta_p u-\Delta_{J,p}u =\lambda|u|^{p-2}u \text{ in } \Omega,\quad u=0 \, \text{ in } \, \Omega^c=\mathbb{R}^N\setminus\Omega. \end{array}$$ Here Ω is a bounded domain in ℝN, Δpu is the standard local p-Laplacian and ΔJ,pu is a nonlocal p-homogeneous operator of order zero. We show that the first eigenvalue (that is isolated and simple) satisfies $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \lim_{p\to\infty} \end{array}$(λ1)1/p = Λ where Λ can be characterized in terms of the geometry of Ω. We also find that the eigenfunctions converge, u∞ = $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \lim_{p\to\infty} \end{array}$ up, and find the limit problem that is satisfied in the limit.

A plasmon of a bounded domain Ω ⊂ ℝn is a non-trivial bounded harmonic function on ℝn\∂Ω which is continuous at ∂Ω and whose exterior and interior normal derivatives at ∂Ω have a constant ratio. We call this ratio a plasmonic eigenvalue of Ω. Plasmons arise in the description of electromagnetic waves hitting a metallic particle Ω. We investigate these eigenvalues and prove that they form a sequence of numbers converging to one. Also, we prove regularity of plasmons, derive a variational characterization, and prove a second-order perturbation formula. The problem can be reformulated in terms of Dirichlet–Neumann operators, and as a side result, we derive a formula for the shape derivative of these operators.

AbstractWe consider a parametric nonlinear Robin problem driven by the negative p-Laplacian plus an indefinite potential. The equation can be thought as a perturbation of the usual eigenvalue problem. We consider the case where the perturbation $$f(z,\cdot )$$ f ( z , · ) is $$(p-1)$$ ( p - 1 ) -sublinear and then the case where it is $$(p-1)$$ ( p - 1 ) -superlinear but without satisfying the Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz condition. We establish existence and uniqueness or multiplicity of positive solutions for certain admissible range for the parameter $$\lambda \in {\mathbb {R}}$$ λ ∈ R which we specify exactly in terms of principal eigenvalue of the differential operator.

Let D be a bounded domain in an n-dimensional Euclidean space ℝn. Assume thatare eigenvalues of an eigenvalue problem of a system of n elliptic equations:In particular, when n=3, the eigenvalue problem describes the behaviour of the elastic vibration. We obtain universal inequalities for eigenvalues of the above eigenvalue problem by making use of a direct and explicit method; our results are sharper than one of Hook. Furthermore, a universal inequality for lower-order eigenvalues of the above eigenvalue problem is also derived.
