Multiple Solutions of Semi-linear Elliptic Equations on RN

Multiple Solutions of Quasilinear Elliptic Equations in RN

Positive solutions to second order semi-linear elliptic equations

Here G ⊆ R (N ≥ 2) is an unbounded domain, and L is a second-order elliptic operator. We mainly confine ourselves to the cases F (x, u) = W (x)u with real p and W (x) a real valued function on G, and F (x, u) = g(u) with g : R→ R continuous and g(0) = 0. The operator L = H − V is of Schrödinger type, namely V = V (x) is a real potential and H = −∆ or more generally H = −∇ · a · ∇ is a second or...

On Elliptic Equations in Rn Withcritical Exponents

In this note we use variational arguments {namely Ekeland's Principle and the Mountain Pass Theorem{ to study the equation ?u + a(x)u = u q + u 2 ?1 in R N : The main concern is overcoming compactness diiculties due both to the unboundedness of the domain R N , and the presence of the critical exponent 2 = 2N=(N ? 2).

Discontinuous Solutions of Linear, Degenerate Elliptic Equations

We give examples of discontinuous solutions of linear, degenerate elliptic equations with divergence structure. These solve positively conjectures of De Giorgi.

Pseudo-radial solutions of semi-linear elliptic equations on symmetric domains

In this paper we investigate existence and characterization of non-radial pseudo-radial (or separable) solutions of some semi-linear elliptic equations on symmetric 2-dimensional domains. The problem reduces to the phase plane analysis of a dynamical system. In particular, we give a full description of the set of pseudo-radial solutions of equations of the form ∆u = ±a2(|x|)u|u|q−1, with q > 0,...
