We study the asymptotic behaviour of the least energy solutions to the following class of nonlocal Neumann problems:

$$ \begin{align*} \begin{cases} { d(-\Delta)^{s}u+ u= \vert u\vert^{p-1}u } & \text{in } \Omega, \\ {u>0} & \text{in } \Omega, \\ { \mathcal{N}_{s}u=0 } & \text{in } \mathbb{R}^{n}\setminus \overline{\Omega}, \end{cases} \end{align*} $$

where $\Omega \subset \mathbb {R}^{n}$ is a bounded domain of class $C^{1,1}$, $1<p<({n+s})/({n-s}),\,n>\max \{1, 2s \}, 0<s<1, d>0$ and $\mathcal {N}_{s}u$ is the nonlocal Neumann derivative. We show that for small $d,$ the least energy solutions $u_d$ of the above problem achieve an $L^{\infty }$-bound independent of $d.$ Using this together with suitable $L^{r}$-estimates on $u_d,$ we show that the least energy solution $u_d$ achieves a maximum on the boundary of $\Omega $ for d sufficiently small.

We consider the radially symmetric positive solutions to quasilinear problem

\begin{equation*}-\triangle u-u\triangle u^{2}+\lambda u=f(u),\quad{\rm in} \ \mathbb{R}^{N},\end{equation*}

having prescribed mass $\int_{\mathbb{R}^{N}}|u|^2 =a^2,$ where a > 0 is a constant, λ appears as a Lagrange multiplier. We focus on the pure L2-supercritical case and combination case of L2-subcritical and L2-supercritical nonlinearities

\begin{equation*}f(u)=\tau |u|^{q-2}u+|u|^{p-2}u,\quad \tau \gt 0,\qquad{\rm where}\ \ 2 \lt q \lt 2+\frac{4}{N} \ {\rm and} \quad \ p \gt \bar{p},\end{equation*}

where $\bar{p}:=4+\frac{4}{N}$ is the L2-critical exponent. Our work extends and develops some recent results in the literature.

In this paper, we study the singular boundary value problem

$$ \begin{align*} \begin{cases} \Delta_\infty^h u=\lambda f(x,u,Du) \quad &\mathrm{in}\; \Omega, \\ u>0\quad &\mathrm{in}\; \Omega,\\ u=0 \quad &\mathrm{on} \;\partial\Omega, \end{cases} \end{align*} $$

where $\lambda>0$ is a parameter, $h>1$ and $\Delta _\infty ^h u=|Du|^{h-3} \langle D^2uDu,Du \rangle $ is the highly degenerate and h-homogeneous operator related to the infinity Laplacian. The nonlinear term $f(x,t,p):\Omega \times (0,\infty )\times \mathbb {R}^{n}\rightarrow \mathbb {R}$ is a continuous function and may exhibit singularity at $t\rightarrow 0^{+}$. We establish the comparison principle by the double variables method for the general equation $\Delta _\infty ^h u=F(x,u,Du)$ under some conditions on the term $F(x,t,p)$. Then, we establish the existence of viscosity solutions to the singular boundary value problem in a bounded domain based on Perron’s method and the comparison principle. Finally, we obtain the existence result in the entire Euclidean space by the approximation procedure. In this procedure, we also establish the local Lipschitz continuity of the viscosity solution.

In this paper, we consider the closed spacelike solution to a class of Hessian quotient equations in de Sitter space. Under mild assumptions, we obtain an existence result using standard degree theory based on a priori estimates.

The paper is concerned with positive solutions to problems of the type

In this paper, we consider the following non-linear system involving the fractional Laplacian0.1

\begin{equation} \left\{\begin{array}{@{}ll} (-\Delta)^{s} u (x)= f(u,\,v), \\ (-\Delta)^{s} v (x)= g(u,\,v), \end{array} \right. \end{equation}

In the present paper we deal with a quasi-linear elliptic equation depending on a sublinear nonlinearity involving the gradient. We prove the existence of a nontrivial nodal solution employing the theory of invariant sets of descending flow together with sub-supersolution techniques, gradient regularity arguments, strong comparison principle for the $p$-Laplace operator. The same conclusion is obtained for an eigenvalue problem under a different set of assumptions.

We consider the Dirichlet problem for $p(x)$-Laplacian equations of the form

$$ \begin{align*} -\Delta_{p(x)}u+b(x)\vert u\vert ^{p(x)-2}u=f(x,u),\quad u\in W_{0}^{1,p(x)}(\Omega). \end{align*} $$

The odd nonlinearity $f(x,u)$ is $p(x)$-sublinear at $u=0$ but the related limit need not be uniform for $x\in \Omega $. Except being subcritical, no additional assumption is imposed on $f(x,u)$ for $|u|$ large. By applying Clark’s theorem and a truncation method, we obtain a sequence of solutions with negative energy and approaching the zero function $u=0$.

For $s_1,\,s_2\in (0,\,1)$ and $p,\,q \in (1,\, \infty )$, we study the following nonlinear Dirichlet eigenvalue problem with parameters $\alpha,\, \beta \in \mathbb {R}$ driven by the sum of two nonlocal operators:

\[ (-\Delta)^{s_1}_p u+(-\Delta)^{s_2}_q u=\alpha|u|^{p-2}u+\beta|u|^{q-2}u\ \text{in }\Omega, \quad u=0\ \text{in } \mathbb{R}^d \setminus \Omega, \quad \mathrm{(P)} \]

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb {R}^N$ ($N\geq 3$) be a $C^2$ bounded domain and $\Sigma \subset \partial \Omega$ be a $C^2$ compact submanifold without boundary, of dimension $k$, $0\leq k \leq N-1$. We assume that $\Sigma = \{0\}$ if $k = 0$ and $\Sigma =\partial \Omega$ if $k=N-1$. Let $d_{\Sigma }(x)=\mathrm {dist}\,(x,\Sigma )$ and $L_\mu = \Delta + \mu \,d_{\Sigma }^{-2}$, where $\mu \in {\mathbb {R}}$. We study boundary value problems ($P_\pm$) $-{L_\mu} u \pm |u|^{p-1}u = 0$ in $\Omega$ and $\mathrm {tr}_{\mu,\Sigma}(u)=\nu$ on $\partial \Omega$, where $p>1$, $\nu$ is a given measure on $\partial \Omega$ and $\mathrm {tr}_{\mu,\Sigma}(u)$ denotes the boundary trace of $u$ associated to $L_\mu$. Different critical exponents for the existence of a solution to ($P_\pm$) appear according to concentration of $\nu$. The solvability for problem ($P_+$) was proved in [3, 29] in subcritical ranges for $p$, namely for $p$ smaller than one of the critical exponents. In this paper, assuming the positivity of the first eigenvalue of $-L_\mu$, we provide conditions on $\nu$ expressed in terms of capacities for the existence of a (unique) solution to ($P_+$) in supercritical ranges for $p$, i.e. for $p$ equal or bigger than one of the critical exponents. We also establish various equivalent criteria for the existence of a solution to ($P_-$) under a smallness assumption on $\nu$.

We study the possible singularities of an m-subharmonic function $\varphi $ along a complex submanifold V of a compact Kähler manifold, finding a maximal rate of growth for $\varphi $ which depends only on m and k, the codimension of V. When $k < m$, we show that $\varphi $ has at worst log poles along V, and that the strength of these poles is moreover constant along V. This can be thought of as an analogue of Siu’s theorem.

We will present the proof of existence and uniqueness of renormalized solutions to a broad family of strongly non-linear elliptic equations with lower order terms and data of low integrability. The leading part of the operator satisfies general growth conditions settling the problem in the framework of fully anisotropic and inhomogeneous Musielak–Orlicz spaces. The setting considered in this paper generalized known results in the variable exponents, anisotropic polynomial, double phase and classical Orlicz setting.

In this paper, we are concerned with the non-existence of positive solutions of a Hartree–Poisson system:

We establish a priori bounds, existence and qualitative behaviour of positive radial solutions in annuli for a class of nonlinear systems driven by Pucci extremal operators and Lane-Emden coupling in the superlinear regime. Our approach is purely nonvariational. It is based on the shooting method, energy functionals, spectral properties, and on a suitable criteria for locating critical points in annular domains through the moving planes method that we also prove.

Motivated by some models of pattern formation involving an unoriented director field in the plane, we study a family of unoriented counterparts to the Aviles–Giga functional. We introduce a nonlinear $\operatorname {\mathrm {curl}}$ operator for such unoriented vector fields as well as a family of even entropies which we call ‘trigonometric entropies’. Using these tools, we show two main theorems which parallel some results in the literature on the classical Aviles–Giga energy. The first is a compactness result for sequences of configurations with uniformly bounded energies. The second is a complete characterization of zero-states, that is, the limit configurations when the energies go to 0. These are Lipschitz continuous away from a locally finite set of points, near which they form either a vortex pattern or a disclination with degree 1/2. The proof is based on a combination of regularity theory together with techniques coming from the study of the Ginzburg–Landau energy. Our methods provide alternative proofs in the classical Aviles–Giga context.

We consider $L^{2}$-constraint minimizers of the mass critical fractional Schrödinger energy functional with a ring-shaped potential $V(x)=(|x|-M)^{2}$, where $M>0$ and $x\in \mathbb {R}^{2}$. By analysing some new estimates on the least energy of the mass critical fractional Schrödinger energy functional, we obtain the concentration behaviour of each minimizer of the mass critical fractional Schrödinger energy functional when $a\nearrow a^{\ast }=\|Q\|_{2}^{2s}$, where $Q$ is the unique positive radial solution of $(-\Delta )^{s}u+su-|u|^{2s}u=0$ in $\mathbb {R}^{2}$.

We devote this paper to study semi-stable nonconstant radial solutions of $S_k(D^2u)=w(\left \vert x \right \vert )g(u)$ on the Euclidean space $\mathbb {R}^n$. We establish pointwise estimates and necessary conditions for the existence of such solutions (not necessarily bounded) for this equation. For bounded solutions we estimate their asymptotic behaviour at infinity. All the estimates are given in terms of the spatial dimension $n$, the values of $k$ and the behaviour at infinity of the growth rate function of $w$.

In this paper, we study the Lieb's translation lemma in Coulomb–Sobolev space and then apply it to investigate the existence of Pohožaev type ground state solution for elliptic equation with van der Waals type potential.
