Existence Of Positive Solutions

We consider the existence of positive solutions of one-dimensional prescribed mean curvature equation−(u′/1+u′2)′=λf(u),0<t<1,u(t)>0,t∈(0,1),u(0)=u(1)=0whereλ>0is a parameter, andf:[0,∞)→[0,∞)is continuous. Further, whenfsatisfiesmax{up,uq}≤f(u)≤up+uq,0<p≤q<+∞, we obtain the exact number of positive solutions. The main results are based upon quadrature method.

Exact Multiplicity

In this paper, bifurcation diagrams and exact multiplicity of positive solution are obtained for the one-dimensional prescribed mean curvature equation in Minkowski space in the form of [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is a bifurcation parameter, [Formula: see text], the radius of the one-dimensional ball [Formula: see text], is an evolution parameter. Moreover, we make a comparison between the bifurcation diagram of one-dimensional prescribed mean curvature equation in Euclid space and Minkowski space. Our methods are based on a detailed analysis of time maps.

AbstractWe discuss existence and multiplicity of positive solutions of the Dirichlet problem for the quasilinear ordinary differential equation.Depending on the behaviour of f = f (t, s) near s = 0, we prove the existence of either one, or two, or three, or infinitely many positive solutions. In general, the positivity of f is not required. All results are obtained by reduction to an equivalent non-singular problem to which variational or topological methods apply in a classical fashion.

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 discuss existence, multiplicity, localisation and stability properties of solutions of the Dirichlet problem associated with the gradient dependent prescribed mean curvature equation in the Lorentz–Minkowski space$\left\{\begin{aligned} \displaystyle{-}\operatorname{div}\biggl{(}\frac{\nabla u% }{\sqrt{1-|\nabla u|^{2}}}\biggr{)}&\displaystyle=f(x,u,\nabla u)&&% \displaystyle\phantom{}\text{in }\Omega,\\ \displaystyle u&\displaystyle=0&&\displaystyle\phantom{}\text{on }\partial% \Omega.\end{aligned}\right.$The obtained results display various peculiarities, which are due to the special features of the involved differential operator and have no counterpart for elliptic problems driven by other quasilinear differential operators. This research is also motivated by some recent achievements in the study of prescribed mean curvature graphs in certain Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker, as well as Schwarzschild–Reissner–Nordström, spacetimes.
