AbstractWe study the Dirichlet problem for the prescribed mean curvature equation in Minkowski space $$ \textstyle\begin{cases} \mathcal{M}(u)+ v^{\alpha }=0\quad \text{in } B, \\ \mathcal{M}(v)+ u^{\beta }=0\quad \text{in } B, \\ u|_{\partial B}=v|_{\partial B}=0, \end{cases} $$ { M ( u ) + v α = 0 in  B , M ( v ) + u β = 0 in  B , u | ∂ B = v | ∂ B = 0 , where $\mathcal{M}(w)=\operatorname{div} ( \frac{\nabla w}{\sqrt{1-|\nabla w|^{2}}} )$ M ( w ) = div ( ∇ w 1 − | ∇ w | 2 ) and B is a unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^{N} (N\geq 2)$ R N ( N ≥ 2 ) . We use the index theory of fixed points for completely continuous operators to obtain the existence, nonexistence and uniqueness results of positive radial solutions under some corresponding assumptions on α, β.

Abstract In this paper, we study the number of classical positive radial solutions for Dirichlet problems of type (P) − d i v ∇ u 1 − | ∇ u | 2 = λ f ( u )   in B 1 , u = 0                     on ∂ B 1 , $$\left\{\begin{aligned}\hfill & -\mathrm{d}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{v}\left(\frac{\nabla u}{\sqrt{1-\vert \nabla u{\vert }^{2}}}\right)=\lambda f(u)\quad \text{in}\enspace {B}_{1},\hfill \\ \hfill & u=0\quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \enspace \enspace \enspace \enspace \enspace \enspace \enspace \enspace \enspace \enspace \text{on}\enspace \partial {B}_{1},\enspace \hfill \end{aligned}\right.$$ where λ is a positive parameter, B 1 = { x ∈ R N : | x | < 1 } ${B}_{1}=\left\{x\in {\mathbb{R}}^{N}:\vert x\vert {< }1\right\}$ , f : [0, ∞) → [0, ∞) is a continuous function. Using the fixed point index in a cone, we prove the results on both uniqueness and multiplicity of positive radial solutions of (P).

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>Existence and uniqueness of positive radial solutions of some weighted fourth order elliptic Navier and Dirichlet problems in the unit ball <inline-formula><tex-math id="M1">\begin{document}$ B $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> are studied. The weights can be singular at <inline-formula><tex-math id="M2">\begin{document}$ x = 0 \in B $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula>. Existence of positive radial solutions of the problems is obtained via variational methods in the weighted Sobolev spaces. To obtain the uniqueness results, we need to know exactly the asymptotic behavior of the solutions at the singular point <inline-formula><tex-math id="M3">\begin{document}$ x = 0 $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula>.</p>
