In this paper we show that the solution of an obstacle problem for linearly elastic shallow shells enjoys higher differentiability properties in the interior of the domain where it is defined.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>It is established existence of solutions for subcritical and critical nonlinearities considering a fourth-order elliptic problem defined in the whole space <inline-formula><tex-math id="M1">\begin{document}$ \mathbb{R}^N $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula>. The work is devoted to study a class of potentials and nonlinearities which can be periodic or asymptotically periodic. Here we consider a general fourth-order elliptic problem where the principal part is given by <inline-formula><tex-math id="M2">\begin{document}$ \alpha \Delta^2 u + \beta \Delta u + V(x)u $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> where <inline-formula><tex-math id="M3">\begin{document}$ \alpha &gt; 0, \beta \in \mathbb{R} $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> and <inline-formula><tex-math id="M4">\begin{document}$ V: \mathbb{R}^N \rightarrow \mathbb{R} $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> is a continuous potential. Hence our main contribution is to consider general fourth-order elliptic problems taking into account the cases where <inline-formula><tex-math id="M5">\begin{document}$ \beta $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> is negative, zero or positive. In order to do that we employ some fine estimates proving the compactness for the associated energy functional.</p>

Let λ* > 0 denote the largest possible value of λ such that the systemhas a solution, where $\mathbb{B}$ is the unit ball in ℝn centred at the origin, p > 1 and n is the exterior unit normal vector. We show that for λ = λ* this problem possesses a unique weak solution u*, called the extremal solution. We prove that u* is singular when n ≥ 13 for p large enough and actually solve part of the open problem which Dávila et al. left unsolved.
