Some existence results for a nonlocal non-isotropic problem

In this paper we deal with the following problem \[\begin{cases}-\sum\limits_{i=1}^{N}\left[ \left( a+b\int\limits_{\, \Omega }\left\vert \partial _{i}u\right\vert ^{p_{i}}dx\right) \partial _{i}\left( \left\vert \partial _{i}u\right\vert ^{p_{i}-2}\partial _{i}u\right) \right]=\frac{f(x)}{u^{\gamma }}\pm g(x)u^{q-1} & in\ \Omega, \\ u\geq 0 & in\ \Omega, \\ u=0 & on\ \partial \Omega, \end{cases}\] where \(\Omega\) is a bounded regular domain in \(\mathbb{R}^{N}\). We will assume without loss of generality that \(1\leq p_{1}\leq p_{2}\leq \ldots\leq p_{N}\) and that \(f\) and \(g\) are non-negative functions belonging to a suitable Lebesgue space \(L^{m}(\Omega)\), \(1\lt q\lt \overline{p}^{\ast}\), \(a\gt 0\), \(b\gt 0\) and \(0\lt \gamma \lt 1.\)

Existence and multiplicity of positive solutions for a fourth-order elliptic equation

We prove existence and multiplicity of solutions for the problem$$\left\{ {\matrix{ {\Delta ^2u + \lambda \Delta u = \vert u \vert ^{2*-2u},{\rm in }\Omega ,} \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \cr {u,-\Delta u > 0,\quad {\rm in}\;\Omega ,\quad u = \Delta u = 0,\quad {\rm on}\;\partial \Omega ,} \cr } } \right.$$where$\Omega \subset {\open R}^N$,$N \ges 5$, is a bounded regular domain,$\lambda >0$and$2^*=2N/(N-4)$is the critical Sobolev exponent for the embedding of$W^{2,2}(\Omega )$into the Lebesgue spaces.

A note on a positive solution of a null mass nonlinear field equation in exterior domains

We consider the Null Mass nonlinear field equation (𝒫)$$\left\{ {\matrix{ {-\Delta u = f(u){\rm in}\;\;\Omega } \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \cr {u > 0} \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \hfill \cr {u \vert_{\partial \Omega } = 0} \cr } } \right.$$ where ${\open R}^N \setminus \Omega $ is a bounded regular domain. The existence of a bound state solution is established in situations where this problem does not have a ground state.

Nonlinear elliptic problem related to the Hardy inequality with singular term at the boundary

Let Ω ⊂ ℝNbe a bounded regular domain of ℝNand 1 < p < ∞. The paper is divided into two main parts. In the first part, we prove the following improved Hardy inequality for convex domains. Namely, for all [Formula: see text], we have [Formula: see text] where d(x) = dist (x, ∂Ω), [Formula: see text] and C is a positive constant depending only on p, N and Ω. The optimality of the exponent of the logarithmic term is also proved. In the second part, we consider the following class of elliptic problem [Formula: see text] where 0 < q ≤ 2* - 1. We investigate the question of existence and nonexistence of positive solutions depending on the range of the exponent q.

On the Uniformity of the Constant in the Poincaré Inequality

The classical Poincaré inequality establishes that for any bounded regular domain Ω ⊂ ℝIn this paper we show that C can be taken independently of Ω when Ω is in a certain class of domains. Our result generalizes previous results in this direction.

Influence of the Hardy potential in a semilinear heat equation

This paper deals with the influence of the Hardy potential in a semilinear heat equation. Precisely, we consider the problemwhere Ω⊂ℝN, N≥3, is a bounded regular domain such that 0∈Ω, p>1, and u0≥0, f≥0 are in a suitable class of functions.There is a great difference between this result and the heat equation (λ=0); indeed, if λ>0, there exists a critical exponent p+(λ) such that for p≥p+(λ) there is no solution for any non-trivial initial datum.The Cauchy problem, Ω=ℝN, is also analysed for 1<p<+(λ). We find the same phenomenon about the critical power p+(λ) as above. Moreover, there exists a Fujita-type exponent, F(λ), in the sense that, independently of the initial datum, for 1<p<F(λ), any solution blows up in a finite time. Moreover, F(λ)>1+2/N, which is the Fujita exponent for the heat equation (λ=0).
