In this paper, we deal with a weighted eigenvalue problem for the anisotropic $(p,q)$-Laplacian with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We study the main properties of the first eigenvalue and a reverse Hölder type inequality for the corresponding eigenfunctions.

In this paper, we prove some weighted sharp inequalities of Trudinger–Moser type. The weights considered here have a logarithmic growth. These inequalities are completely new and are established in some new Sobolev spaces where the norm is a mixture of the norm of the gradient in two different Lebesgue spaces. This fact allowed us to prove a very interesting result of sharpness for the case of doubly exponential growth at infinity. Some improvements of these inequalities for the weakly convergent sequences are also proved using a version of the Concentration-Compactness principle of P.L. Lions. Taking profit of these inequalities, we treat in the last part of this work some elliptic quasilinear equation involving the weighted $(N,q)-$Laplacian operator where $1 < q < N$ and a nonlinearities enjoying a new type of exponential growth condition at infinity.

The Schrödinger–Poisson system describes standing waves for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation interacting with the electrostatic field. In this paper, we are concerned with the existence of positive ground states to the planar Schrödinger–Poisson system with a nonlinearity having either a subcritical or a critical exponential growth in the sense of Trudinger–Moser. A feature of this paper is that neither the finite steep potential nor the reaction satisfies any symmetry or periodicity hypotheses. The analysis developed in this paper seems to be the first attempt in the study of planar Schrödinger–Poisson systems with lack of symmetry.

In this work, we study a quasilinear elliptic problem involving the 1-Laplacian operator, with a discontinuous, superlinear and subcritical nonlinearity involving the Heaviside function $H(\cdot - \beta )$. Our approach is based on an analysis of the associated p-Laplacian problem, followed by a thorough analysis of the asymptotic behaviour or such solutions as $p \to 1^+$. We study also the asymptotic behaviour of the solutions, as $\beta \to 0^+$ and we prove that it converges to a solution of the original problem, without the discontinuity in the nonlinearity.

This note studies local integral gradient bounds for distributional solutions of a large class of partial differential inequalities with diffusion in divergence form and power-like first-order terms. The applications of these estimates are two-fold. First, we show the (sharp) global Hölder regularity of distributional semi-solutions to this class of diffusive PDEs with first-order terms having supernatural growth and right-hand side in a suitable Morrey class posed on a bounded and regular open set $\Omega$. Second, we provide a new proof of entire Liouville properties for inequalities with superlinear first-order terms without assuming any one-side bound on the solution for the corresponding homogeneous partial differential inequalities. We also discuss some extensions of the previous properties to problems arising in sub-Riemannian geometry and also to partial differential inequalities posed on noncompact complete Riemannian manifolds under appropriate area-growth conditions of the geodesic spheres, providing new results in both these directions. The methods rely on integral arguments and do not exploit maximum and comparison principles.

We establish multiplicity results for the following class of quasilinear problems P

We establish gradient estimates for solutions to the Dirichlet problem for the constant mean curvature equation in hyperbolic space. We obtain these estimates on bounded strictly convex domains by using the maximum principles theory of Φ-functions of Payne and Philippin. These estimates are then employed to solve the Dirichlet problem when the mean curvature H satisfies H < 1 under suitable boundary conditions.

In this paper, we study the existence of weak solutions of the quasilinear equation

We are interested in standing waves of a modified Schrödinger equation coupled with the Chern–Simons gauge theory. By applying a constraint minimization of Nehari-Pohozaev type, we prove the existence of radial ground state solutions. We also investigate the nonexistence for nontrivial solutions.

The main result of this work is a new extension of the well-known inequality by Díaz and Saa which, in our case, involves an anisotropic operator, such as the p(x)-Laplacian, $\Delta _{p(x)}u\equiv {\rm div}( \vert \nabla u \vert ^{p(x)-2}\nabla u)$. Our present extension of this inequality enables us to establish several new results on the uniqueness of solutions and comparison principles for some anisotropic quasilinear elliptic equations. Our proofs take advantage of certain convexity properties of the energy functional associated with the p(x)-Laplacian.

Positive solutions of a Kirchhoff-type nonlinear elliptic equation with a non-local integral term on a bounded domain in ℝN, N ⩾ 1, are studied by using bifurcation theory. The parameter regions of existence, non-existence and uniqueness of positive solutions are characterized by the eigenvalues of a linear eigenvalue problem and a nonlinear eigenvalue problem. Local and global bifurcation diagrams of positive solutions for various parameter regions are obtained.

In this paper, we study the multiplicity of solutions for the following problem:

This paper deals with the class of Schrödinger–Kirchhoff-type biharmonic problems

where Δ2 denotes the biharmonic operator, and f ∈ C(ℝN × ℝ, ℝ) satisfies the Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz-type conditions. Under appropriate assumptions on V and f, the existence of infinitely many solutions is proved by using the symmetric mountain pass theorem.

In the ambient space of a semidirect product $\mathbb{R}^{2}\rtimes _{A}\mathbb{R}$, we consider a connected domain ${\rm\Omega}\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{2}\rtimes _{A}\{0\}$. Given a function $u:{\rm\Omega}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, its ${\it\pi}$-graph is $\text{graph}(u)=\{(x,y,u(x,y))\mid (x,y,0)\in {\rm\Omega}\}$. In this paper we study the partial differential equation that $u$ must satisfy so that $\text{graph}(u)$ has prescribed mean curvature $H$. Using techniques from quasilinear elliptic equations we prove that if a ${\it\pi}$-graph has a nonnegative mean curvature function, then it satisfies some uniform height estimates that depend on ${\rm\Omega}$ and on the supremum the function attains on the boundary of ${\rm\Omega}$. When $\text{trace}(A)>0$, we prove that the oscillation of a minimal graph, assuming the same constant value $n$ along the boundary, tends to zero when $n\rightarrow +\infty$ and goes to $+\infty$ if $n\rightarrow -\infty$. Furthermore, we use these estimates, allied with techniques from Killing graphs, to prove the existence of minimal ${\it\pi}$-graphs assuming the value zero along a piecewise smooth curve ${\it\gamma}$ with endpoints $p_{1},\,p_{2}$ and having as boundary ${\it\gamma}\cup (\{p_{1}\}\times [0,\,+\infty ))\cup (\{p_{2}\}\times [0,\,+\infty ))$.

In this paper, our main purpose is to establish the existence of positive solution of the following system where are constants. F(x,u,υ) = λp(x)[g(x)a(u)+f(υ)], H(x,u,υ)=θq(x)[g1(x)b(υ)+h(u)], λ, θ>0 are parameters, p(x), q(x) are radial symmetric functions, is called p(x)-Laplacian. We give the existence results and consider the asymptotic behavior of the solutions. In particular, we do not assume any symmetric condition, and we do not assume any sign condition on F(x,0,0) and H(x,0,0) either.

We prove the quasi-optimal convergence of a standard adaptive finite element method (AFEM) for a class of nonlinear elliptic second-order equations of monotone type. The adaptive algorithm is based on residual-type a posteriori error estimators and Dörfler’s strategy is assumed for marking. We first prove a contraction property for a suitable definition of total error, analogous to the one used by Diening and Kreuzer (2008) and equivalent to the total error defined by Cascón et. al. (2008). This contraction implies linear convergence of the discrete solutions to the exact solution in the usual H1 Sobolev norm. Secondly, we use this contraction to derive the optimal complexity of the AFEM. The results are based on ideas from Diening and Kreuzer and extend the theory from Cascón et. al. to a class of nonlinear problems which stem from strongly monotone and Lipschitz operators.
