Linking solutions for p-Laplace equations with nonlinearity at critical growth

Under a suitable condition on n and p, the quasilinear equation at critical growth −Δpu=λ|u|^p−2u+|u|^p∗−2u is shown to admit a nontrivial weak solution for any λ?λ₁. Nonstandard linking structures, for the associated functional, are recognized.     

Nontrivial solutions for perturbations of a Hardy-Sobolev operator on unbounded domains

In this paper we study the existence of nontrivial solution of the problem −Δ_pu−(μ/[d(x)]^p)|u|^p−2u=f(u) in Ω and u=0 on ∂Ω, where is a bounded domain with smooth boundary in Existence is established using mountain-pass lemma and concentration of compactness principle.     

Global attractors for p-Laplacian equation

The existence of a -global attractor is proved for the p-Laplacian equation ut−div(|∇u|^p−2∇u)+f(u)=g on a bounded domain Ω⊂Rn(n?3) with Dirichlet boundary condition, where p?2. The nonlinear term f is supposed to satisfy the polynomial growth condition of arbitrary order c₁q|u|−k?f(u)u?c₂q|u|+k and f^′(u)?−l, where q?2 is arbitrary. There is no other restriction on p and q. The asymptotic compactness of the corresponding semigroup is proved by using a new a priori estimate method, called asymptotic a priori estimate.     

Standing waves for supercritical nonlinear Schrödinger equations

Let V(x) be a non-negative, bounded potential in RN, N?3 and p supercritical, . We look for positive solutions of the standing-wave nonlinear Schrödinger equation Δu−V(x)u+up=0 in RN, with u(x)→0 as |x|→+∞. We prove that if V(x)=o(⁻²|x|) as |x|→+∞, then for N?4 and this problem admits a continuum of solutions. If in addition we have, for instance, V(x)=O(|x|^−μ) with μ>N, then this result still holds provided that N?3 and . Other conditions for solvability, involving behavior of V at ∞, are also provided.     

Isolated singularities of solutions to quasi-linear elliptic equations with absorption

We study the problem of removability of isolated singularities for a general second-order quasi-linear equation in divergence form −divA(x,u,∇u)+a₀(x,u)+g(x,u)=0 in a punctured domain Ω?{0}, where Ω is a domain in Rn, n?3. The model example is the equation −Δpu+gu|u|^p−2+u|u|^q−1=0, q>p−1>0, p<n. Assuming that the lower-order terms satisfy certain non-linear Kato-type conditions, we prove that for all point singularities of the above equation are removable, thus extending the seminal result of Brezis and Véron.     

On the classification of minimal mass blowup solutions of the focusing mass-critical Hartree equation

Consider the focusing mass-critical nonlinear Hartree equation iut+Δu=−(⁻²|⋅|∗²|u|)u for spherically symmetric initial data with ground state mass M(Q) in dimension d?5. We show that any global solution u which does not scatter must be the solitary wave eitQ up to phase rotation and scaling.     

An improved local well-posedness result for the one-dimensional Zakharov system

The 1D Cauchy problem for the Zakharov system is shown to be locally well-posed for low regularity Schrödinger data and wave data under certain assumptions on the parameters k,l and 1<p?2, where , generalizing the results for p=2 by Ginibre, Tsutsumi and Velo. Especially we are able to improve the results from the scaling point of view, and also allow suitable k<0, l<−1/2, i.e. data u₀∉L² and (n₀,n₁)∉H−1/2×H−3/2, which was excluded in the case p=2.     

The asymptotic behaviour of the ground state solutions for Hénon equation

The main purpose of this paper is to analyze the asymptotic behaviour of the ground state solution of Hénon equation −Δu=|x|^αu^p−1 in Ω, u=0 on ∂Ω (Ω⊂Rn is a ball centered at the origin). It proved that for p close to 2∗=2n/(n−2)(n?3), the ground state solution u_p has a unique maximum point x_p and as p→2∗. The asymptotic behaviour of u_p is also given, which deduces that the ground state solution is non-radial.
