In this paper we study the unidimensional Stationary Boltzmann Equation by an approach via Morse theory. We define a functional J whose critical points coincide with the solutions of the Stationary Boltzmann Equation. By the calculation of Morse index of J’’0(0)h and the critical groups C2(J, 0) and C2(J, ∞) we prove that J has two different critical points u1 and u2 different from 0, that is, solutions of Boltzmann Equation.

In this paper, by Morse theory we will study the Kirchhoff type equation with an additional critical nonlinear term, and the main results are to compute the critical groups including the cases where zero is a mountain pass solution and the nonlinearity is resonant at zero. As an application, the multiplicity of nontrivial solutions for this equation with the parameter across the first eigenvalue is investigated under appropriate assumptions. To our best knowledge, estimates of our critical groups are new even for the Kirchhoff type equations with subcritical nonlinearities.

We consider elliptic equations in bounded domains Ω⊂ℝ2 with nonlinearities which have exponential growth at +∞ (subcritical and critical growth, respectively) and linear growth λ at -∞, with λ>λ1, the first eigen value of the Laplacian. We prove that such equations have at least two solutions for certain forcing terms; one solution is negative, the other one is sign-changing. Some critical groups and Morse index of these solutions are given. Also the case λ<λ1 is considered.

In this paper we investigate method of the digital images topological and semantic analysis based on the Morse theory. The description of the MathLab program module for calculation of statistically significant critical points for single-channel image is also submitted.

AbstractThis paper deals with periodic solutions for the billiard problem in a bounded open set of ℝN which are limits of regular solutions of Lagrangian systems with a potential well. We give a precise link between the Morse index of approximate solutions (regarded as critical points of Lagrangian functionals) and the properties of the bounce trajectory to which they converge.

In [5], R. Thorn has started the study of the foliated structures by using the Morse theory. Recently K. Yamato [7] has studied the topological properties of leaves of a codimension one foliated manifold by investigating the “critical points” of variation equation of the given one-form.

We obtain nontrivial solutions for a class of double-phase problems using Morse theory. In the absence of a direct sum decomposition, we use a cohomological local splitting to get an estimate of the critical groups at zero.
