چکیده

If the coefficient functions Aa have at most polynomial growth in u and its derivatives, we have shown in [ l ] how existence theorems for solutions of variational boundary value problems for the equation A (u) —f may be obtained from monotonicity assumptions on the nonlinear Dirichlet form of A, with extensions to weaker ellipticity assumptions in [3], [4], [9], and [15]. These results extend earlier theorems of Visik [18] obtained by other arguments, but (despite an apparent remark to the contrary in [l5]) do not extend automatically to the case of rapidly increasing coefficients treated by Visik in [ l9] . The crucial point for this more general case is that the Banach spaces in which the problems are appropriately formulated are derived from nonreflexive Orlicz spaces [14] and are themselves nonreflexive and nonseparable. On the other hand, the basic treatments of monotone and semimonotone operator equations have been carried out in reflexive Banach spaces (and in [15], it is even essential to consider only separable spaces). I t is our object in the present note to outline a treatment of these more general problems in nonreflexive spaces, using the remark already made by the writer in the final section of [4] on the useful properties of the weak* topology on a conjugate space. We formulate this treatment in a very general context of functional rather than simply differential equations, and apply to the resulting operator equations a new theorem on perturbation of semimonotone operators (Theorem 2 below) which is particularly efficacious in this general context. This result is extended and applied in more detail in [ l l ] to include all the elliptic results of [ l ] , [3], [4], [9], [IS], [18], and [ l9] , and a corresponding extension to unbounded operators and to monotone operators on convex sets gives a significant extension of

Nonlinear Elliptic Boundary Value Problems

It is the object of the present note to present a new nonlinear version of the orthogonal projection method for proving the existence of solutions of nonlinear elliptic boundary value problems. The key point in this method is the application of a new general theorem concerning the solvability of nonlinear functional equations in a reflexive Banach space involving operators which may not be cont...

A Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability result for functional equations in Intuitionistic Fuzzy Banach spaces

Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability have been studied in the contexts of several areas of mathematics. The concept of fuzziness and its extensions have been introduced to almost all branches of mathematics in recent times.Here we define the cubic functional equation in 2-variables and establish that Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability holds for such equations in intuitionistic fuzzy Banach spaces.

Quadratic $alpha$-functional equations

In this paper, we solve the quadratic $alpha$-functional equations $2f(x) + 2f(y) = f(x + y) + alpha^{-2}f(alpha(x-y)); (0.1)$ where $alpha$ is a fixed non-Archimedean number with $alpha^{-2}neq 3$. Using the fixed point method and the direct method, we prove the Hyers-Ulam stability of the quadratic $alpha$-functional equation (0.1) in non-Archimedean Banach spaces.
