One solution for nonlocal fourth order equations

A critical point result for differentiable functionals is exploited in order to prove that a suitable class of fourth-order boundary value problem of Kirchhoff-type possesses at least one weak solution under an asymptotical behavior of the nonlinear datum at zero. Some examples to illustrate the results are given.

A variational approach for boundary value problems for impulsive fractional differential equations

By using an abstract critical point result for differentiable and parametric functionals due to B. Ricceri, we establish the existence of infinitely many classical solutions for fractional differential equations subject to boundary value conditions and impulses. More precisely, we determine some intervals of parameters such that the treated problems admit either an unbounded sequence of solutions, provided that the nonlinearity has a suitable oscillatory behaviour at infinity, or a pairwise distinct sequence of solutions that strongly converges to zero if a similar behaviour occurs at zero. No symmetric condition on the nonlinear term is assumed. Two examples are then given.

An existence result for multiple solutions to a Dirichlet problem

The authors establish the existence of at least three solutions to a quasilinear elliptic problem subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions in a bounded domain in ${\mathbb{R}^{N}}$. A critical point result for differentiable functionals is used to prove the results.

Existence results for nonlinear elliptic problems on fractal domains

Some existence results for a parametric Dirichlet problem defined on the Sierpiński fractal are proved. More precisely, a critical point result for differentiable functionals is exploited in order to prove the existence of a well-determined open interval of positive eigenvalues for which the problem admits at least one non-trivial weak solution.

A bifurcation result for non-local fractional equations

In the present paper, we consider problems modeled by the following non-local fractional equation [Formula: see text] where s ∈ (0, 1) is fixed, (-Δ)sis the fractional Laplace operator, λ and μ are real parameters, Ω is an open bounded subset of ℝn, n > 2s, with Lipschitz boundary and f is a function satisfying suitable regularity and growth conditions. A critical point result for differentiable functionals is exploited, in order to prove that the problem admits at least one non-trivial and non-negative (non-positive) solution, provided the parameters λ and μ lie in a suitable range. The existence result obtained in the present paper may be seen as a bifurcation theorem, which extends some results, well known in the classical Laplace setting, to the non-local fractional framework.

Three Weak Solutions for Nonlocal Fractional Equations

This article concerns a class of nonlocal fractional Laplacian problems depending of three real parameters. More precisely, by using an appropriate analytical context on fractional Sobolev spaces due to Servadei and Valdinoci (in order to correctly encode the Dirichlet boundary datum in the variational formulation of our problem) we establish the existence of three weak solutions for fractional equations via a recent abstract critical point result for differentiable and parametric functionals recently proved by Ricceri.

THREE NON-ZERO SOLUTIONS FOR ELLIPTIC NEUMANN PROBLEMS

In this note we obtain a multiplicity result for an eigenvalue Neumann problem. Precisely, a recent critical point result for differentiable functionals is exploited, in order to prove the existence of a determined open interval of positive eigenvalues for which the problem admits at least three non-zero weak solutions.

EXISTENCE OF TWO NON-TRIVIAL SOLUTIONS FOR A CLASS OF QUASILINEAR ELLIPTIC VARIATIONAL SYSTEMS ON STRIP-LIKE DOMAINS

In this paper we study the multiplicity of solutions of the quasilinear elliptic system\begin{equation} \left. \begin{aligned} -\Delta_pu\amp=\lambda F_u(x,u,v)\amp\amp\text{in }\varOmega, \\ -\Delta_qv\amp=\lambda F_v(x,u,v)\amp\amp\text{in }\varOmega, \\ u=v\amp=0\amp\amp\text{on }\partial\varOmega, \end{aligned} \right\} \end{equation} \tag{S$_\lambda$}where $\varOmega$ is a strip-like domain and $\lambda>0$ is a parameter. Under some growth conditions on $F$, we guarantee the existence of an open interval $\varLambda\subset(0,\infty)$ such that for every $\lambda\in\varLambda$, the system (S$_\lambda$) has at least two distinct, non-trivial solutions. The proof is based on an abstract critical-point result of Ricceri and on the principle of symmetric criticality.
