Semilinear elliptic equations are ubiquitous in natural sciences. They give rise to a variety of important phenomena in quantum mechanics, nonlinear optics, astrophysics, etc because they have rich multiple solutions. But the nontrivial solutions of semilinear equations are hard to be solved for the lack of stabilities, such as Lane-Emden equation, Henon equation and Chandrasekhar equation. In ...

For 0 < p − 1 < q and either ǫ = 1 or ǫ = −1, we prove the existence of solutions of −∆pu = ǫu q in a cone CS , with vertex 0 and opening S, vanishing on ∂CS , under the form u(x) = |x|ω( x |x|). The problem reduces to a quasilinear elliptic equation on S and existence is based upon degree theory and homotopy methods. We also obtain a non-existence result in some critical case by an integral ty...

In this article, we present a collocation method for second-order nonlinear Lane-Emden type pantograph differential equations under intial conditions. According to the method, solution of problem is sought depending on Pell-Lucas polynomials. The polynomials are written in matrix form based standard bases. Then, and its derivatives also forms. Next, transformation constituted proportion delay f...
