Quasilinear elliptic equations with Neumann boundary and singularity

Let Ω be a bounded domain with a smooth C2 boundary in RN（N ≥ 3）, 0 ∈Ω, and n denote the unit outward normal to ЭΩ.We are concerned with the Neumann boundary problems： -div（｜x｜α｜△u｜p-2△u）=｜x｜βup（α,β）-1-λ｜x｜γup-1,u（x）〉0,x∈Ω,Эu/Эn=0 on ЭΩ,where 1〈p〈N and α〈0,β〈0 such that p（α,β）△=p（N＋β）/N-p＋α〉p,y〉α-p.For various parameters α,βorγ,we establish certain existence results of the solutions in the case 0∈Ω or 0∈ЭΩ.     

Regularity for quasi-linear degenerate elliptic equations with VMO coefficients

In this paper we establish an interior regularity of weak solution for quasi-linear degenerate elliptic equations under the subcritical growth if its coefficient matrix A（x, u） satisfies a VMO condition in the variable x uniformly with respect to all u, and the lower order item B（x, u, △↓u） satisfies the subcritical growth （1.2）. In particular, when F（x） ∈ L^q（Ω） and f（x） ∈ L^γ（Ω） with q,γ 〉 for any 1 〈 p 〈 ＋∞, we obtain interior HSlder continuity of any weak solution of （1.1） u with an index κ = min{1 - n/q, 1 - n/γ}.     

MULTIPLE SOLUTIONS FOR THE p＆q-LAPLACIAN PROBLEM WITH CRITICAL EXPONENT

In this paper, we study the existence of multiple solutions for the following nonlinear elliptic problem of p＆q-Laplacian type involving the critical Sobolev exponent：{-△pu-△qu=│u│^p＊-2u＋μ│u│^r-2u in Ω u│δΩ=0,where Ω belong to R^N is a bounded domain,N〉p,p^＊=Np/N-p is the critical Sobolev exponent and μ 〉0. We prove that if 1 〈 r 〈 q 〈 p 〈 N, then there is a μ0 〉 0, such that for any μ∈ （0, μ0）, the above mentioned problem possesses infinitely many weak solutions. Our result generalizes a similar result in [8] for p-Laplacian type problem.

We study the existence of solutions for the SchrOdinger-Poisson system

-△φ=k（x）u2, in R3,
where 3 G p 〈 5, a （x） is a sign-changing function such that both the supports of a＋ and a- may have infinite measure. We show that the problem has at least one nontrivial solution under some assumptions.

Let {Xn,n ≥ 1} be a sequence of identically distributed ρ^--mixing random variables and set Sn =∑i^n=1 Xi,n ≥ 1,the suffcient and necessary conditions for the existence of moments of supn≥1 ｜Sn/n^1/r｜^p（0 〈 r 〈 2,p 〉 0） are given,which are the same as that in the independent case.     

BLOW-UP RATE OF SOLUTIONS FOR P-LAPLACIAN EQUATION

In this note we consider the blow-up rate of solutions for p-Laplacian equation with nonlinear source, ut = div（｜↓△u｜p-2↓△u）＋uq, （x, t） ∈ RN × （0, T）, N ≥ 1. When q 〉 p - 1, the blow-up rate of solutions is studied.     

Regional, Single Point, and Global Blow-Up for the Fourth-Order Porous Medium Type Equation with Source

Blow-up behaviour for the fourth-order quasilinear porous medium equation with source,ut=-（｜u｜^nu）xxxx＋｜u｜^p-1u in R×R＋,where n 〉 0, p 〉 1, is studied. Countable and finite families of similarity blow-up patterns of the form us（x,t）=（T-t）^-1/p-1f（y）,where y=x/（T-t）^β＇ β=p-（n＋1）/4（p-1）,which blow-up as t → T^- 〈∞ are described. These solutions explain key features of regional （for p = n＋1）, single point （for p 〉 n＋1）, and global （for p ∈ （1,n＋1））blowup. The concepts and various variational, bifurcation, and numerical approaches for revealing the structure and multiplicities of such blow-up patterns are presented.

u=0 inδΩ,
where Ω R^N（N≥3） is a bounded domain with smooth boundary δΩ,2≤pi〈N,i=1,N,q：Ω→（1,p＊）is a continuous function, p＊ =N/∑i=1^N 1/pi-1 is the critical exponent for this class of problem, and λ is a parameter.     

A Note to the Cauchy Problem for the Degenerate Parabolic Equations with Strongly Nonlinear Sources

In this note we study the nonexistence of nontrivial global solutions on S = R^N × （0,∞） for the following inequalities：｜u｜t≥△（｜u｜^m-1u）＋｜u｜^q and ｜u｜t≥div（｜△u｜^p-2△｜u｜）＋｜u｜^q.When m,p,q satisfy some given conditions, the nonexistence of nontrivial global solution is proved, without taking their traces on the hyperplans t = 0 into account.     

SIGN-CHANGING SOLUTIONS FOR SCHRODINGER EQUATIONS WITH VANISHING AND SIGN-CHANGING POTENTIALS

In this article, we study the existence of sign-changing solutions for the following SchrSdinger equation
-△u ＋ λV（x）u = K（x）｜u｜^p-2u x∈R^N, u→0 as ｜x｜→ ＋∞,
2N where N ≥ 3, λ〉 0 is a parameter, 2 〈 p 〈 2N/N-2, and the potentials V（x） and K（x） satisfy some suitable conditions. By using the method based on invariant sets of the descending flow, we obtain the existence of a positive ground state solution and a ground state sign-changing solution of the above equation for small λ, which is a complement of the results obtained by Wang and Zhou in [J. Math. Phys. 52, 113704, 2011].

Refined Scattering and Hermitian Spectral Theory for Linear Higher-Order Schrōdinger Equations

The Cauchy problem for a linear 2mth-order Schrōdinger equation ut=-i（-△）^mu, in R^N×R＋,u｜t=0=u0;m≥1 is an integer,is studied, for initial data uo in the weighted space L^2ρ（R^N）,withρ^＊（x）=e｜x｜^a and a=2m/2m-1∈（1,2].The following five problems are studied： （I） A sharp asymptotic behaviour of solutions as t → ＋∞ is governed by a discrete spectrum and a countable set Ф of the eigenfunctions of the linear rescaled operator B=-i（-△）^m＋1/2my·↓△＋N/2mI,with the spectrum σ（B）={λβ=-｜β｜≥0}. （Ⅱ） Finite-time blow-up local structures of nodal sets of solutions as t → 0^- and a formation of ＂multiple zeros＂ are described by the eigenfunctions, being generalized Hermite polynomials, of the ＂adjoint＂ operator B=-i（-△）^m-1/2my·↓△,with the same spectrum σ（B^＊）=σ（B）.Applications of these spectral results also include： （Ⅲ） a unique continuation theorem, and （IV） boundary characteristic point regularity issues. Some applications are discussed for more general linear PDEs and for the nonlinear Schr6dinger equations in the focusing （＂＋＂） and defocusing （＂-＂） cases ut=-（-△）^mu±i｜u｜^p-1u,in R^N×R＋,where P〉1,as well as for： （V） the quasilinear Schr6dinger equation of a ＂porous medium type＂ ut=-（-△）^m（｜u｜^nu）,in R^N×R＋,where n〉0.For the latter one, the main idea towards countable families of nonlinear eigenfunctions is to perform a homotopic path n → 0^＋ and to use spectral theory of the pair {B,B^＊}.     

Existence, Uniqueness and Blow-Up Rate of Large Solutions of Quasi-Linear Elliptic Equations with Higher Order and Large Perturbation

We establish the existence, uniqueness and the blow-up rate of the large positive solution of the quasi-linear elliptic problem -△pu=λ（x）u^θ-1-b（x）h（u）, in Ω,with boundary condition u = ＋∞ on δΩ, where Ω R^N （N≥2） is a smooth bounded domain, 1 〈 p 〈∞ λ（·） and b（·） are positive weight functions and h（u） ～ uq-1 as u → ∞. Our results extend the previous work [Z. Xie, J. Diff. Equ., 247 （2009）, 344-363] from case p = 2, λ is a constant and θ = 2 to case 1 〈 p 〈∞, A is a function and 1 （ 0 〈 θ 〈q 〉 p）; and also extends the previous work [Z. Xie, C. Zhao, J. Diff. Equ., 252 （2012）, 1776-1788], from case A is a constant and θ = p to case λ is a function and 1 〈 θ 〈 q （ 〉 p）. Moreover, we remove the assumption of radial symmetry of the problem and we do not require h（·） is increasing.     

BOUND STATES FOR A STATIONARY NONLINEAR SCHRODINGER-POISSON SYSTEM WITH SIGN-CHANGING POTENTIAL IN R^3△

We study the following Schrodinger-Poisson system where （Pλ）{-△u＋ V（x）u＋λФ（x）u^p=x∈R^3,-△Ф=u^2,lim│x│→∞Ф（x） =0,u〉0,where λ≥0 is a parameter,1 〈 p 〈 ＋∞, V（x） and Q（x）=1 ,D.Ruiz[19] proved that（Pλ）with p∈ （2, 5） has always a positive radial solution, but （Pλ） with p E （1, 2] has solution only if λ 〉 0 small enough and no any nontrivial solution if λ≥1/4.By using sub-supersolution method,we prove that there exists λ0〉0 such that（Pλ）with p ∈（1＋∞）has alaways a bound state（H^1（R^3）solution for λ∈[0,λ0）and certain functions V（x）and Q（x）in L^∞（R^3）.Moreover,for every λ∈[0,λ0）,the solutions uλ of （Pλ）converges,along a subsequence,to a solution of （P0）in H^1 as λ→0

EXISTENCE AND NONEXISTENCE OF ENTIRE LARGE SOLUTIONS FOR SOME SEMILINEAR ELLIPTIC EQUATIONS

In this note, we consider positive entire large solutions for semilinear elliptic equations Au = p（x）f（u） in R^N with N ≥ 3. More precisely, we are interested in the link between the existence of entire large solution with the behavior of solution for --△u = p（x） in R^N. Especially for the radial case, we try to give a survey of all possible situations under Keller-Osserman type conditions.
