On Principal Eigenvalues for Boundary Value Problems with Inde nite Weight and Robin Boundary Conditions
We investigate the existence of principal eigenvalues (i.e., eigenval-ues corresponding to positive eigenfunctions) for the boundary value problem ?u(x) = g(x)u(x) on D; @u @n (x)+u(x) = 0 on @D where D is a bounded region in R N , g is an indeenite weight function and 2 R may be positive, negative or zero.
متن کاملBoundedness and Monotonicity of Principal Eigenvalues for Boundary Value Problems with Indefinite Weight Functions
We study the principal eigenvalues (i.e., eigenvalues corresponding to positive eigenfunctions) for the boundary value problem: −∆u(x) = λg(x)u(x), x ∈ D; (∂u/∂n)(x) + αu(x) = 0, x ∈ ∂D, where ∆ is the standard Laplace operator, D is a bounded domain with smooth boundary, g : D → R is a smooth function which changes sign on D and α∈R. We discuss the relation between α and the principal eigenval...
متن کاملPrincipal eigenvalues for generalised indefinite Robin problems
We consider the principal eigenvalue of generalised Robin boundary value problems on non-smooth domains, where the zero order coefficient of the boundary operator is negative or changes sign. We provide conditions so that the related eigenvalue problem has a principal eigenvalue. We work with the framework involving measure data on the boundary due to [Arendt & Warma, Potential Anal. 19, 2003, ...
متن کاملPrincipal Eigenvalue Minimization for an Elliptic Problem with Indefinite Weight and Robin Boundary Conditions
This paper focuses on the study of a linear eigenvalue problem with indefinite weight and Robin type boundary conditions. We investigate the minimization of the positive principal eigenvalue under the constraint that the absolute value of the weight is bounded and the total weight is a fixed negative constant. Biologically, this minimization problem is motivated by the question of determining t...
متن کاملPrincipal Eigenvalues for Problems with Indefinite Weight Function on R
We investigate the existence of positive principal eigenvalues of the problem —Au(x) = lg(x)u for x e R" ; u(x) —* 0 as x —> oo where the weight function g changes sign on R" . It is proved that such eigenvalues exist if g is negative and bounded away from 0 at oo or if n > 3 and \g(x)\ is sufficiently small at oo but do not exist if n = 1 or 2 and fRn g(x)dx > 0 .
