In the present work we study the multiplicity and concentration of positive solutions for the following class of Kirchhoff problems: − ( ε 2 a + ε b ∫ R 3 | ∇ u | 2 d x ) Δ u + V ( x ) u = f ( u ) + γ u 5 in  R 3 , u ∈ H 1 ( R 3 ) , u > 0 in  R 3 , where ε > 0 is a small parameter, a , b > 0 are constants, γ ∈ { 0 , 1 }, V is a continuous positive potential with a local minimum, and f is a superlinear continuous function with subcritical growth. The main results are obtained through suitable variational and topological arguments. We also provide a multiplicity result for a supercritical version of the above problem by combining a truncation argument with a Moser-type iteration. Our theorems extend and improve in several directions the studies made in (Adv. Nonlinear Stud. 14 (2014), 483–510; J. Differ. Equ. 252 (2012), 1813–1834; J. Differ. Equ. 253 (2012), 2314–2351).

We deal with the multiplicity and concentration of positive solutions for the following fractional Schrödinger–Poisson-type system with critical growth: [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is a small parameter, [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text], is the fractional Laplacian operator, [Formula: see text] is a continuous positive potential and [Formula: see text] is a superlinear continuous function with subcritical growth. Using penalization techniques and Ljusternik–Schnirelmann theory, we investigate the relation between the number of positive solutions with the topology of the set where the potential attains its minimum value.

AbstractIn this paper, we study a class of (p, q)-Schrödinger–Kirchhoff type equations involving a continuous positive potential satisfying del Pino–Felmer type conditions and a continuous nonlinearity with subcritical growth at infinity. By applying variational methods, penalization techniques and Lusternik–Schnirelman category theory, we relate the number of positive solutions with the topology of the set where the potential attains its minimum values.

AbstractIn this paper we study the existence of weak positive solutions for the following class of quasilinear Schrödinger equations−Δu + V(x)u − [Δ(uwhere h satisfies some “mountain-pass” type assumptions and V is a nonnegative continuous function. We are interested specially in the case where the potential V is neither bounded away from zero, nor bounded from above. We give a special attention to the case when V may eventually vanish at infinity. Our arguments are based on penalization techniques, variational methods and Moser iteration scheme.

Abstract We show existence and concentration results for a class of p&q critical problems given by − d i v a ϵ p | ∇ u | p ϵ p | ∇ u | p − 2 ∇ u + V ( z ) b | u | p | u | p − 2 u = f ( u ) + | u | q ⋆ − 2 u in R N , $$-div\left(a\left(\epsilon^{p}|\nabla u|^{p}\right) \epsilon^{p}|\nabla u|^{p-2} \nabla u\right)+V(z) b\left(|u|^{p}\right)|u|^{p-2} u=f(u)+|u|^{q^{\star}-2} u\, \text{in} \,\mathbb{R}^{N},$$ where u ∈ W 1,p (ℝ N ) ∩ W 1,q (ℝ N ), ϵ > 0 is a small parameter, 1 < p ≤ q < N, N ≥ 2 and q * = Nq/(N − q). The potential V is positive and f is a superlinear function of C 1 class. We use Mountain Pass Theorem and the penalization arguments introduced by Del Pino & Felmer’s associated to Lions’ Concentration and Compactness Principle in order to overcome the lack of compactness.

Abstract We study the existence and concentration of positive solutions for the following class of fractional p-Kirchhoff type problems: $$ \left\{\begin{array}{@{}ll} \left(\varepsilon^{sp}a+\varepsilon^{2sp-3}b \,[u]_{s, p}^{p}\right)(-\Delta)_{p}^{s}u+V(x)u^{p-1}=f(u) & \text{in}\ \mathbb{R}^{3},\\ \noalign{ u\in W^{s, p}(\mathbb{R}^{3}), \quad u>0 & \text{in}\ \mathbb{R}^{3}, \end{array}\right.$$ where ɛ is a small positive parameter, a and b are positive constants, s ∈ (0, 1) and p ∈ (1, ∞) are such that $sp \in (\frac {3}{2}, 3)$ , $(-\Delta )^{s}_{p}$ is the fractional p-Laplacian operator, f: ℝ → ℝ is a superlinear continuous function with subcritical growth and V: ℝ3 → ℝ is a continuous potential having a local minimum. We also prove a multiplicity result and relate the number of positive solutions with the topology of the set where the potential V attains its minimum values. Finally, we obtain an existence result when f(u) = uq−1 + γur−1, where γ > 0 is sufficiently small, and the powers q and r satisfy 2p < q < p* s  ⩽ r. The main results are obtained by using some appropriate variational arguments.

AbstractWe study the existence of positive solutions for fractional elliptic equations of the type (-Δ)1/2u = h(u), u > 0 in (-1,1), u = 0 in ℝ∖(-1,1) where h is a real valued function that behaves like eu2 as u → ∞ . Here (-Δ)1/2 is the fractional Laplacian operator. We show the existence of mountain-pass solution when the nonlinearity is superlinear near t = 0. In case h is concave near t = 0, we show the existence of multiple solutions for suitable range of λ by analyzing the fibering maps and the corresponding Nehari manifold.

We consider the following difference equationxn+1=xn-1g(xn),n=0,1,…,where initial valuesx-1,x0∈[0,+∞)andg:[0,+∞)→(0,1]is a strictly decreasing continuous surjective function. We show the following. (1) Every positive solution of this equation converges toa,0,a,0,…,or0,a,0,a,…for somea∈[0,+∞). (2) Assumea∈(0,+∞). Then the set of initial conditions(x-1,x0)∈(0,+∞)×(0,+∞)such that the positive solutions of this equation converge toa,0,a,0,…,or0,a,0,a,…is a unique strictly increasing continuous function or an empty set.

In this paper, we are concerned with the existence of solutions for fourth-order Kirchhoff type elliptic problems with Hardy potential. In fact, employing a consequence of the local minimum theorem due to Bonanno and mountain pass theorem we look into the existence results for the problem under algebraic conditions with the classical Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz (AR) condition on the nonlinear term. Furthermore, by combining two algebraic conditions on the nonlinear term using two consequences of the local minimum theorem due to Bonanno we ensure the existence of two solutions, applying the mountain pass theorem given by Pucci and Serrin we establish the existence of third solution for our problem.

AbstractThe existence of positive solutions, vanishing at infinity, for the semilinear eigenvalue problem Lu = λ f(x, y) in RN is obtained, where L is a strictly elliptic operator. The function f is assumed to be of subcritical growth with respect to the variable u.
