Here is one of the results obtained in this paper: Let Ω ⊂ R n be a smooth bounded domain, let q > 1 , with q < n + 2 n - 2 if n ≥ 3 and let λ 1 be the first eigenvalue of the problem - Δ u = λ u in Ω , u = 0 on ∂ Ω . Then, for every λ > λ 1 and for every convex set S ⊆ H 0 1 ( Ω ) dense in H 0 1 ( Ω ) , there exists α ∈ S such that the problem - Δ u = λ ( u + - ( u + ) q ) + α ( x ) in Ω , u = 0 on ∂ Ω , has at least three weak solutions, two of which are global minima in H 0 1 ( Ω ) of the functional u → 1 2 ∫ Ω | ∇ u ( x ) | 2 d x - λ ∫ Ω 1 2 | u + ( x ) | 2 - 1 q + 1 | u + ( x ) | q + 1 d x - ∫ Ω α ( x ) u ( x ) d x where u + = max { u , 0 } .

"We get a new multiplicity result for gradient systems. Here is a very particular corollary: Let $\Omega\subset {\bf R}^n$ ($n\geq 2$) be a smooth bounded domain and let $\Phi:{\bf R}^2\to {\bf R}$ be a $C^1$ function, with $\Phi(0,0)=0$, such that $$\sup_{(u,v)\in {\bf R}^2}\frac{|\Phi_u(u,v)|+|\Phi_v(u,v)|}{1+|u|^p+|v|^p}<+\infty$$ where $p>0$, with $p=\frac{2}{n-2}$ when $n>2$.\\ Then, for every convex set $S\subseteq L^{\infty}(\Omega)\times L^{\infty}(\Omega)$ dense in $L^2(\Omega)\times L^2(\Omega)$, there exists $(\alpha,\beta)\in S$ such that the problem $$-\Delta u=(\alpha(x)\cos(\Phi(u,v))-\beta(x)\sin(\Phi(u,v)))\Phi_u(u,v)\hskip 5pt \hbox {\rm in}\hskip 5pt \Omega$$ $$-\Delta v= (\alpha(x)\cos(\Phi(u,v))-\beta(x)\sin(\Phi(u,v)))\Phi_v(u,v)\hskip 5pt \hbox {\rm in}\hskip 5pt \Omega$$ $$u=v=0\hskip 5pt \hbox {\rm on}\hskip 5pt \partial\Omega$$ has at least three weak solutions, two of which are global minima in $H^1_0(\Omega)\times H^1_0(\Omega)$ of the functional $$(u,v)\to \frac{1}{2}\left ( \int_{\Omega}|\nabla u(x)|^2dx+\int_{\Omega}|\nabla v(x)|^2dx\right )$$ $$-\int_{\Omega}(\alpha(x)\sin(\Phi(u(x),v(x)))+\beta(x)\cos(\Phi(u(x),v(x))))dx\ .$$"

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>We consider fully coupled cooperative systems on <inline-formula><tex-math id="M2">\begin{document}$ \mathbb{R}^n $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> with coefficients that decay exponentially at infinity. Expanding some results obtained previously on bounded domain, we prove that the existence of a strictly positive supersolution ensures the first eigenvalue to exist and to be nonzero. This result is applied to show that the topological solutions for a Chern-Simons model, described by a semilinear system on <inline-formula><tex-math id="M3">\begin{document}$ \mathbb{R}^2 $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> with exponential nonlinearity, are nondegenerate.</p>

Abstract In this paper we study the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem $$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle -\Delta_p u-\Delta_{J,p}u =\lambda|u|^{p-2}u \text{ in } \Omega,\quad u=0 \, \text{ in } \, \Omega^c=\mathbb{R}^N\setminus\Omega. \end{array}$$ Here Ω is a bounded domain in ℝN, Δpu is the standard local p-Laplacian and ΔJ,pu is a nonlocal p-homogeneous operator of order zero. We show that the first eigenvalue (that is isolated and simple) satisfies $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \lim_{p\to\infty} \end{array}$(λ1)1/p = Λ where Λ can be characterized in terms of the geometry of Ω. We also find that the eigenfunctions converge, u∞ = $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \lim_{p\to\infty} \end{array}$ up, and find the limit problem that is satisfied in the limit.

We study in this paper the following singular Schrödinger-Kirchhoff-type problem with critical exponent -a+b∫Ω∇u2dxΔu+u=Q(x)u5+μxα-2u+f(x)(λ/uγ) in Ω,u=0 on ∂Ω, where a,b>0 are constants, Ω⊂R3 is a smooth bounded domain, 0<α<1, λ>0 is a real parameter, γ∈(0,1) is a constant, and 0<μ<aμ1 (μ1 is the first eigenvalue of -Δu=μxα-2u, under Dirichlet boundary condition). Under appropriate assumptions on Q and f, we obtain two positive solutions via the variational and perturbation methods.

In this paper, we consider the following coupled Schr\”{o}dinger system with doubly critical exponents, which can be seen as a counterpart of the Brezis-Nirenberg problem $$\left\{% \begin{array}{ll} -\Delta u+\lambda_1 u=\mu_1 u^5+ \beta u^2v^3, & \hbox{$x\in \Omega$}, \\ -\Delta v+\lambda_2 v=\mu_2 v^5+ \beta v^2u^3, & \hbox{$x\in \Omega$}, \\ u=v=0,& \hbox{$x\in \partial\Omega$}, \\ \end{array}% \right.$$ where $\Omega$ is a ball in $\R^3,$ $-\lambda_1(\Omega)<\lambda_1,\lambda_2<-\frac14\lambda_1(\Omega)$, $\mu_1,\mu_2>0$ and $\beta>0$. Here $\lambda_1(\Omega)$ is the first eigenvalue of $-\Delta$ with Dirichlet boundary condition in $\Omega$. We show that the problem has at least one nontrivial solution for all $\beta>0$.

We study the following boundary value problem with a concave–convex nonlinearity: [Formula: see text] Here Ω ⊂ ℝnis a bounded domain and 1 < q < p < r < p*. It is well known that there exists a number Λq, r> 0 such that the problem admits at least two positive solutions for 0 < Λ < Λq, r, at least one positive solution for Λ = Λq, r, and no positive solution for Λ > Λq, r. We show that [Formula: see text] where λ1(p) is the first eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian. It is worth noticing that λ1(p) is the threshold for existence/nonexistence of positive solutions to the above problem in the limit case q = p.

Abstract We obtain a generalization of the Picone inequality which, in combination with the classical Picone inequality, appears to be useful for problems with the (p,q) -Laplace-type operators. With its help, as well as with the help of several other known generalized Picone inequalities, we provide some nontrivial facts on the existence and nonexistence of positive solutions to the zero Dirichlet problem for the equation -\hspace{-0.25em}{\text{&#x0394;}}_{p}u-{\text{&#x0394;}}_{q}u={f}_{\mu }(x,u,\nabla u) in a bounded domain \text{&#x03A9;}\hspace{0.25em}\subset {{\mathbb{R}}}^{N} under certain assumptions on the nonlinearity and with a special attention to the resonance case {f}_{\mu }(x,u,\nabla u)={\lambda }_{1}(p)|u{|}^{p-2}u+\mu |u{|}^{q-2}u , where {\lambda }_{1}(p) is the first eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian.

In this paper, we investigate universal inequalities for eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian and the clamped plate problem on a bounded domain in an n-dimensional polydisk 𝔻n. Moreover, from the domain monotonicity of the eigenvalue, we can prove that if the first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian tends to [Formula: see text] when the domain tends to the polydisk 𝔻n, then all of the eigenvalues tend to [Formula: see text].

This study concerns the existence of positive solutions to classes of boundary value problems of the form−∆u = g(x,u), x ∈ Ω,u(x) = 0, x ∈ ∂Ω,where ∆ denote the Laplacian operator, Ω is a smooth bounded domain in RN (N ≥ 2) with ∂Ω of class C2, and connected, and g(x, 0) < 0 for some x ∈ Ω (semipositone problems). By using the method of sub-super solutions we prove the existence of positive solution to special types of g(x,u).
