چکیده

We consider the existence of radially symmetric non-negative solutions for the boundary value problem -Au(x) = lf{u(x)) IMI < 1, x e RN{N > 2) u(x) = 0 ||*|| = 1 where X > 0, f(0) < 0 (non-positone), /' > 0 and / is superlinear. We establish existence of non-negative solutions for A small which extends some work of our previous paper on non-positone problems, where we considered the case N = \ . Our work also proves a recent conjecture by Joel Smoller and Arthur Wasserman.

Radially Symmetric Solutions for a Class ofCritical Exponent Elliptic Problems in RN

We give a method for obtaining radially symmetric solutions for the critical exponent problem ?u + a(x)u = u q + u 2 ?1 in R N u > 0 and R R N jruj 2 < 1 where, outside a ball centered at the origin, the non-negative function a is bounded from below by a positive constant ao > 0. We remark that, diierently from the literature, we do not require any conditions on a at innnity.

Effect of Winkler Foundation on Radially Symmetric Vibrations of Bi-Directional FGM Non-Uniform Mindlin’s Circular Plate Subjected to In-Plane Peripheral Loading

An analysis has been presented of the effect of elastic foundation and uniform in-plane peripheral loading on the natural frequencies and mode shapes of circular plates of varying thickness exhibiting bi-directional functionally graded characteristics, on the basis of first order shear deformation theory. The material properties of the plate are varying following a power-law in both the radial ...

MHD Flow of Blood through Radially Non-symmetric Stenosed Artery: a Hershcel-Bulkley Model (RESEARCH NOTE)

The purpose of this study is to develop a mathematical model for studying the magnetic field effect on blood flow through an axially non-symmetric but radially symmetric atherosclerotic artery. Herschel-Bulkley equation has been taken to represent the non-Newtonian character of blood. The response of magnetic field, stenosis height, shape parameter on velocity, volumetric flow rate in stenotic ...

Sign-preserving Property for Some Fourth-order Elliptic Operators in One Dimension and Radial Symmetry

For a class of one-dimensional linear elliptic fourth-order equations with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions it is shown that a non-positive and non-vanishing right-hand side gives rise to a negative solution. A similar result is obtained for the same class of equations for radially symmetric solutions in a ball or in an annulus. Several applications are given, including applications to...

Subsolutions: a Journey from Positone to Infinite Semipositone Problems

We discuss the existence of positive solutions to −∆u = λf(u) in Ω, with u = 0 on the boundary, where λ is a positive parameter, Ω is a bounded domain with smooth boundary ∆ is the Laplacian operator, and f : (0,∞) → R is a continuous function. We first discuss the cases when f(0) > 0 (positone), f(0) = 0 and f(0) < 0 (semipositone). In particular, we will review the existence of non-negative s...
