Semiclassical ground state solutions for a Schrödinger equation in with critical exponential growth

Consider a Schrödinger equation where and are two continuous real functions on , ε is a positive parameter, the nonlinearity f is assumed to be of critical exponential growth in the sense of the Trudinger‐Moser inequality. By truncating the potentials and , we are able to establish some new existence and concentration results for critical Schrödinger equation in by variational methods. As a particular case, we observe that the concentration appears at the maximum set of the nonlinear potential which complements the results in 6 , 23 .     

On decay estimates of the 3D nematic liquid crystal flows in critical Besov spaces

In this paper, we develop the energy argument in homogeneous Besov space framework to study the large time behavior of global‐in‐time strong solutions to the Cauchy problem of the three‐dimensional incompressible nematic liquid crystal flows with low regularity assumptions on initial data. More precisely, if the small initial data with 1 < p < ∞ and further assume that with 1 < q≤p and , then the global‐in‐time strong solution (u,d) to the nematic liquid crystal flows admits the following temporal decay rate: Here, is a constant unit vector. The highlight of our argument is to show that the ‐norms (with ) of solution are preserved along time evolution. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Asymptotic behavior of solutions to a class of nonlocal non‐autonomous diffusion equations

In this paper, we consider the nonlocal non‐autonomous evolution problems where Ω is a bounded smooth domain in , N≥1, β is a positive constant, the coefficient a is a continuous bounded function on , and K is an integral operator with symmetric kernel , being J a non‐negative function continuously differentiable on and . We prove the existence of global pullback attractor, and we exhibit a functional to evolution process generated by this problem that decreases along of solutions. Assuming the parameter β is small enough, we show that the origin is locally pullback asymptotically stable. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Sobolev estimates for (pseudo)‐differential operators and applications

In this work we show that if is a linear differential operator of order ν with smooth complex coefficients in from a complex vector space E to a complex vector space F, the Sobolev a priori estimate holds locally at any point if and only if is elliptic and the constant coefficient homogeneous operator is canceling in the sense of Van Schaftingen for every which means that Here is the homogeneous part of order ν of and is the principal symbol of . This result implies and unifies the proofs of several estimates for complexes and pseudo‐complexes of operators of order one or higher proved recently by other methods as well as it extends —in the local setup— the characterization of Van Schaftingen to operators with variable coefficients.     

Homoclinic solutions for second‐order discrete Hamiltonian systems with asymptotically quadratic potentials

In this paper, we study the existence of infinitely many homoclinic solutions for the second‐order self‐adjoint discrete Hamiltonian system , where , and are unnecessarily positive definites for all . By using the variant fountain theorem, we obtain an existence criterion to guarantee that the aforementioned system has infinitely many homoclinic solutions under the assumption that W(n,x) is asymptotically quadratic as | x | → + ∞ .

On some length problems for univalent functions

Let be the class of functions which are analytic in the unit disk . Let C(r) be the closed curve that is the image of the circle |z|=r < 1 under the mapping w = f(z), L(r) the length of C(r), and let A(r) be the area enclosed by the curve C(r). In 1968 D. K. Thomas shown that if , f is starlike with respect to the origin, and for 0≤r < 1, A(r) < A, an absolute constant, then Later, in 1969 Nunokawa has shown that if f is convex univalent, then This paper is devoted to obtaining a related correspondence between f(z) and L(r) for the case when f is univalent.

Boundedness of solutions to parabolic–elliptic Keller–Segel systems with signal‐dependent sensitivity

This paper deals with the parabolic–elliptic Keller–Segel system with signal‐dependent chemotactic sensitivity function, under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in a smooth bounded domain , with initial data satisfying u₀ ≥ 0 and . The chemotactic sensitivity function χ(v) is assumed to satisfy The global existence of weak solutions in the special case is shown by Biler (Adv. Math. Sci. Appl. 1999; 9:347–359). Uniform boundedness and blow‐up of radial solutions are studied by Nagai and Senba (Adv. Math. Sci. Appl. 1998; 8:145–156). However, the global existence and uniform boundedness of classical nonradial solutions are left as an open problem. This paper gives an answer to the problem. Namely, it is shown that the system possesses a unique global classical solution that is uniformly bounded if , where γ > 0 is a constant depending on Ω and u₀.

ψ‐Hyperholomorphic functions and a Kolosov–Muskhelishvili formula

Holomorphic function theory is an effective tool for solving linear elasticity problems in the complex plane. The displacement and stress field are represented in terms of holomorphic functions, well known as Kolosov–Muskhelishvili formulae. In , similar formulae were already developed in recent papers, using quaternionic monogenic functions as a generalization of holomorphic functions. However, the existing representations use functions from to , embedded in . It is not completely appropriate for applications in . In particular, one has to remove many redundancies while constructing basis solutions. To overcome that problem, we propose an alternative Kolosov–Muskhelishvili formula for the displacement field by means of a (paravector‐valued) monogenic, an anti‐monogenic and a ψ‐hyperholomorphic function.

Maximal regularity for non‐autonomous Robin boundary conditions

We consider a non‐autonomous Cauchy problem where is associated with the form , where V and H are Hilbert spaces such that V is continuously and densely embedded in H. We prove H‐maximal regularity, i.e., the weak solution u is actually in (if and ) under a new regularity condition on the form with respect to time; namely Hölder continuity with values in an interpolation space. This result is best suited to treat Robin boundary conditions. The maximal regularity allows one to use fixed point arguments to some non linear parabolic problems with Robin boundary conditions.     

Ground state solutions for asymptotically periodic fractional Schrödinger–Poisson problems with asymptotically cubic or super‐cubic nonlinearities

In this paper, we consider the following fractional Schrödinger–Poisson problem: where s,t∈(0,1],4s+2t>3,V(x),K(x), and f(x,u) are periodic or asymptotically periodic in x. We use the non‐Nehari manifold approach to establish the existence of the Nehari‐type ground state solutions in two cases: the periodic one and the asymptotically periodic case, by introducing weaker conditions uniformly in with and with constant θ₀∈(0,1), instead of uniformly in and the usual Nehari‐type monotonic condition on f(x,τ)/|τ|³. Our results unify both asymptotically cubic or super‐cubic nonlinearities, which are new even for s=t=1. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Linear statistics of matrix ensembles in classical background

Given a joint probability density function of N real random variables, , obtained from the eigenvector–eigenvalue decomposition of N × N random matrices, one constructs a random variable, the linear statistics, defined by the sum of smooth functions evaluated at the eigenvalues or singular values of the random matrix, namely, . For the joint PDFs obtained from the Gaussian and Laguerre ensembles, we compute, in this paper, the moment‐generating function , where denotes expectation value over the orthogonal (β = 1) and symplectic (β = 4) ensembles, in the form one plus a Schwartz function, none vanishing over for the Gaussian ensembles and for the Laguerre ensembles. These are ultimately expressed in the form of the determinants of identity plus a scalar operator, from which we obtained the large N asymptotic of the linear statistics from suitably scaled F(·).
