Infinitely many solutions for p‐Kirchhoff equation with concave–convex nonlinearities in

In this paper, we study the existence of infinitely many solutions to p‐Kirchhoff‐type equation (0.1) where f(x,u) = λh₁(x)|u|^{m ? 2}u + h₂(x)|u|^{q ? 2}u,a≥0,μ > 0,τ > 0,λ≥0 and . The potential function verifies , and h₁(x),h₂(x) satisfy suitable conditions. Using variational methods and some special techniques, we prove that there exists λ₀>0 such that problem 0.1 admits infinitely many nonnegative high‐energy solutions provided that λ∈[0,λ₀) and . Also, we prove that problem 0.1 has at least a nontrivial solution under the assumption f(x,u) = h₂|u|^{q ? 2}u,p < q< min{p*,p(τ + 1)} and has infinitely many nonnegative solutions for f(x,u) = h₁|u|^{m ? 2}u,1 < m < p.

Existence of positive solutions for nonlinear Kirchhoff type problems in with critical Sobolev exponent

In this paper, we study the following nonlinear problem of Kirchhoff type with critical Sobolev exponent: where a, b > 0 are constants. Under certain assumptions on the sign‐changing function f(x,u), we prove the existence of positive solutions by variational methods. Our main results can be viewed as a partial extension of a recent result of He and Zou in [Journal of Differential Equations, 2012] concerning the existence of positive solutions to the nonlinear Kirchhoff problem where ϵ > 0 is a parameter, V (x) is a positive continuous potential, and with 4 < p < 6 and satisfies the Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz type condition.

Solution of perturbed Schrödinger system with critical nonlinearity and electromagnetic fields

In this paper, we consider the following perturbed nonlinear Schrödinger system with electromagnetic fields where N ≥ 3, 2 ^蜧 = 2N ∕ (N ? 2) is the Sobolev critical exponent; A is the real vector magnetic potential; and V (x), K(x), and H(s,t) are continuous functions. Under certain conditions on V, H, and K, we establish some new results on the existence of the least‐energy solutions (u_?,v_?) for small ? by using variational method.

Positive solutions for asymptotically linear Schrödinger–Kirchhoff‐type equations

In this paper, we focus on the Schrödinger–Kirchhoff‐type equation (SK) where a,b > 0 are constants, may not be radially symmetric, and f(x,u) is asymptotically linear with respect to u at infinity. Under some technical assumptions on V and f, we prove that the problem (SK) has a positive solution. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Boundedness of solutions to a quasilinear parabolic–elliptic Keller–Segel system with logistic source

We study a quasilinear parabolic–elliptic Keller–Segel system involving a source term of logistic type u_t = ? ? (?(u) ? u) ? χ ? ? (u ? v) + g(u), ? Δv = ? v + u in Ω × (0,T), subject to nonnegative initial data and the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition in a bounded domain with smooth boundary, n ≥ 1, χ > 0, ? ≥ c₁s^p for s ≥ s₀ > 1, and g(s) ≤ as ? μs² for s > 0 with a,g(0) ≥ 0, μ > 0. There are three nonlinear mechanisms included in the chemotaxis model: the nonlinear diffusion, aggregation and logistic absorption. The interaction among the triple nonlinearities shows that together with the nonlinear diffusion, the logistic absorption will dominate the aggregation such that the unique classical solution of the system has to be global in time and bounded, regardless of the initial data, whenever , or, equivalently, , which enlarge the parameter range , or , required by globally bounded solutions of the quasilinear K‐S system without the logistic source.

The existence of a nontrivial solution to p‐Laplacian equations in with supercritical growth

In this paper, we consider the p‐Laplacian equations in with supercritical growth where △ _pu = div( | ? u | ^{p ? 2} ? u),1 < p < N is the p‐Laplacian operator. Under certain assumptions on V (x) and f(u) that will be given in Section 1, we prove that the problem has at least a nontrivial solution by using variational methods combined with perturbation arguments. The solutions to subcritical p‐Laplacian equations are estimated applying the L ^∞ norm. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Multiple solutions of a quasilinear elliptic problem involving nonlinear boundary condition on exterior domain

In this paper, we study the multiplicity of non‐negative solutions for the quasilinear p‐Laplacian equation with the nonlinear boundary condition (1) where Δ_p denotes the p‐Laplacian operator, defined by △ _pu = div( | ? u | ^{p ? 2} ? u),1 < p < N, Ω is a smooth exterior domain in . is the outward normal derivative, . The parameters p,q,r are either or . The weight functions a(x),h(x),g(x) satisfy some suitable conditions. Using the decomposition of the Nehari manifold and the variational methods, we prove that problem (1) has at least two positive solutions provided 0 < | λ | < λ₁ for some λ₁.

Semilinear structural damped waves

We study the Cauchy problem for the semilinear structural damped wave equation with source term with σ ∈ (0,1] in space dimension n ≥ 2 and with a positive constant μ. We are interested in the influence of σ on the critical exponent p_crit in | f(u) | ≈ | u | ^p. This critical exponent is the threshold between global existence in time of small data solutions and blow‐up behavior for some suitable range of p. Our results are optimal for σ = 1 ∕ 2.

This paper deals with the extinction properties of solutions for the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary value problem with the nonlocal source and interior absorption where m,λ,k,q > 0, 0 < m(p ? 1) < 1, r ≤ 1, and . By using L^p‐integral norm estimate method, we obtain the sufficient conditions of extinction solutions. Moreover, we also give the precise decay estimates of the extinction solutions.
