Bubble towers for supercritical semilinear elliptic equations

We construct positive solutions of the semilinear elliptic problem with Dirichet boundary conditions, in a bounded smooth domain Ω⊂R^N(N?4), when the exponent p is supercritical and close enough to and the parameter λ∈R is small enough. As , the solutions have multiple blow up at finitely many points which are the critical points of a function whose definition involves Green's function. Our result extends the result of Del Pino et al. (J. Differential Equations 193(2) (2003) 280) when Ω is a ball and the solutions are radially symmetric.

A density result for Sobolev spaces in dimension two, and applications to stability of nonlinear Neumann problems

We prove that if Ω⊆R² is bounded and R²?Ω satisfies suitable structural assumptions (for example it has a countable number of connected components), then W1,2(Ω) is dense in W1,p(Ω) for every 1?p<2. The main application of this density result is the study of stability under boundary variations for nonlinear Neumann problems of the form

We also obtain that this semigroup is ultracontractive in the sense that for every u,v∈Lp(Ω), p?2 and every t>0, one has
