Multiple Axially Asymmetric Solutions to a Mean Field Equation on $\mathbb{S}^{2}$

We study the following mean field equation$$\Delta_{g}u+\rho\left(\frac{e^{u}}{\int_{\mathbb{S}^{2}}e^{u}d\mu}-\frac{1}{4\pi}\right)=0\ \ \mbox{in}\ \ \mathbb{S}^{2},$$where $\rho$ is a real parameter. We obtain the existence of multiple axially asymmetric solutions bifurcating from $u=0$ at the values $\rho=4n(n+1)\pi$ for any odd integer $n\geq3$.

Remarks on a Mean Field Equation on $\mathbb{S}^2$

In this note, we study symmetry of solutions of the elliptic equation\begin{equation*} -\Delta _{\mathbb{S}^{2}}u+3=e^{2u}\ \ \hbox{on}\ \ \mathbb{S}^{2},\end{equation*} that arises in the consideration of rigidity problem of Hawking mass in general relativity. We provide various conditions under which this equation has only constant solutions, and consequently imply the rigidity of Hawking mass for stable constant mean curvature (CMC) sphere.     

Multiple sign-changing solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic equations in $\mathbb{R}^{N}$

In this paper, we study the following semilinear elliptic equations $$-\triangle u+V(x)u=f(x,u), \ \ x\in \mathbb{R}^{N},$$ where $V\in C(\mathbb{R}^{N}, \mathbb{R})$ and $f\in C(\mathbb{R}^{N}\times\mathbb{R}, \mathbb{R})$. Under some suitable conditions, we prove that the equation has three solutions of mountain pass type: one positive, one negative, and sign-changing. Furthermore, if $f$ is odd with respect to its second variable, this problem has infinitely many sign-changing solutions.     

Biharmonic Submanifolds with Parallel Mean Curvature in \mathbb{S}^{n}\times\mathbb{R}

We find a Simons type formula for submanifolds with parallel mean curvature vector (pmc submanifolds) in product spaces M ⁿ (c)×?, where M ⁿ (c) is a space form with constant sectional curvature c, and then we use it to prove a gap theorem for the mean curvature of certain complete proper-biharmonic pmc submanifolds, and classify proper-biharmonic pmc surfaces in $\mathbb{S}^{n}(c)\times\mathbb{R}$ .

The existence and uniqueness of solutions of second order elliptic differential equations in are proved. The coefficients of second order terms are allowed to have discontinuity at finitely many parallel hyper-planes in and the first derivatives of solutions can have jumps at the hyper-planes.      

Infinitely many bound state solutions of Schrodinger-Poisson equations in $\mathbb{R}^3$

In this paper, we study a system of Schr\"odinger-Poisson equation \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{c} -\Delta u+a(x)u+K(x)\phi u=|u|^{p-2}u,\quad \quad \quad \ \ \ \ \ \ x\in \mathbb{R}^3, \-\Delta \phi=K(x)u^2,\quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \ x\in \mathbb{R}^3, \end{array} \right. \] where $p\in (4,6)$ and $ K\geq (\not\equiv) 0$. Under some suitable decay assumptions but without any symmetry property on $a$ and $K$, we obtain infinitely many solutions of this system.     

Global bifurcation for quasilinear elliptic equations on $\mathbb{R}^{N}$

In this paper we discuss the global behaviour of some connected sets of solutions of a broad class of second order quasilinear elliptic equations for where is a real parameter and the function u is required to satisfy the condition The basic tool is the degree for proper Fredholm maps of index zero in the form due to Fitzpatrick, Pejsachowicz and Rabier. To use this degree the problem must be expressed in the form where J is an interval, X and Y are Banach spaces and F is a map which is Fredholm and proper on closed bounded subsets. We use the usual spaces and . Then the main difficulty involves finding general conditions on and b which ensure the properness of F. Our approach to this is based on some recent work where, under the assumption that and b are asymptotically periodic in x as $\left| x\right| \rightarrow\infty$, we have obtained simple conditions which are necessary and sufficient for to be Fredholm and proper on closed bounded subsets of X. In particular, the nonexistence of nonzero solutions in X of the asymptotic problem plays a crucial role in this issue. Our results establish the bifurcation of global branches of solutions for the general problem. Various special cases are also discussed. Even for semilinear equations of the form our results cover situations outside the scope of other methods in the literature.

On Quadratic Differentials and Twisted Normal Maps of Surfaces in {\mathbb{S}^{2} \times\mathbb{R}} and {\mathbb{H}^{2} \times\mathbb{R}}

Given a Lie group G with a bi-invariant metric and a compact Lie subgroup K, Bittencourt and Ripoll used the homogeneous structure of quotient spaces to define a Gauss map ${\mathcal{N}:M^{n}\rightarrow{\mathbb{S}}}$ on any hypersupersurface ${M^{n}\looparrowright G/K}$ , where ${{\mathbb{S}}}$ is the unit sphere of the Lie algebra of G. It is proved in Bittencourt and Ripoll (Pacific J Math 224:45–64, 2006) that M ⁿ having constant mean curvature (CMC) is equivalent to ${\mathcal{N}}$ being harmonic, a generalization of a Ruh–Vilms theorem for submanifolds in the Euclidean space. In particular, when n = 2, the induced quadratic differential ${\mathcal{Q}_{\mathcal{N}}:=(\mathcal{N}^{\ast}g)^{2,0}}$ is holomorphic on CMC surfaces of G/K. In this paper, we take ${G/K={\mathbb{S}}^{2}\times{\mathbb{R}}}$ and compare ${\mathcal{Q}_{\mathcal{N}}}$ with the Abresch–Rosenberg differential ${\mathcal{Q}}$ , also holomorphic for CMC surfaces. It is proved that ${\mathcal{Q}=\mathcal{Q}_{\mathcal{N}}}$ , after showing that ${\mathcal{N}}$ is the twisted normal given by (1.5) herein. Then we define the twisted normal for surfaces in ${{\mathbb{H}}^{2}\times{\mathbb{R}}}$ and prove that ${\mathcal{Q}=\mathcal{Q}_{\mathcal{N}}}$ as well. Within the unified model for the two product spaces, we compute the tension field of ${\mathcal{N}}$ and extend to surfaces in ${{\mathbb{H}}^{2}\times{\mathbb{R}}}$ the equivalence between the CMC property and the harmonicity of ${\mathcal{N}.}$      

Quasi-convex Mappings on the Unit Polydisk in $\mathbb{C}^{n}$

In this paper, the sharp estimates of all homogeneous expansions for f are established, where f(z) = (f ₁(z), f ₂(z), …, f _n (z))′ is a k-fold symmetric quasi-convex mapping defined on the unit polydisk in ℂ ⁿ and

Decay estimates for "anisotropic" viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equations in $ \mathbb{R}^{N} $

The large time behaviour of the L^q L^q -norm of nonnegative solutions to the "anisotropic" viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equation¶¶ u_t - Du + ?_i=1^m |u_xi|^p_i = 0      in   \mathbbR₊×\mathbbR^N,u_t - \Delta u + \sum_{i=1}^m \vert u_{x_i}\vert^{p_i} = 0 \;\;\mbox{ in }\; {\mathbb{R}}_+\times{\mathbb{R}}^N,¶¶is studied for q=1 q=1 and q=￥ q=\infty , where m ? {1,?,N} m\in\{1,\ldots,N\} and p_i ? [1,+￥) p_i\in [1,+\infty) for i ? {1,?,m} i\in\{1,\ldots,m\} . The limit of the L¹ L^1 -norm is identified, and temporal decay estimates for the L^￥ L^\infty -norm are obtained, according to the values of the p_i p_i 's. The main tool in our approach is the derivation of L^￥ L^\infty -decay estimates for ?(u^a ), a ? (0,1] \nabla\left(u^\alpha \right), \alpha\in (0,1] , by a Bernstein technique inspired by the ones developed by Bénilan for the porous medium equation.     

Classification of rotational special Weingarten surfaces of minimal type in {\mathbb{S}^2 \times \mathbb{R}} and {\mathbb{H}^2 \times \mathbb{R}}

In this paper we classify the complete rotational special Weingarten surfaces in ${\mathbb{S}^2 \times \mathbb{R}}$ and ${\mathbb{H}^2 \times \mathbb{R}}$ ; i.e. rotational surfaces in ${\mathbb{S}^2 \times \mathbb{R}}$ and ${\mathbb{H}^2 \times \mathbb{R}}$ whose mean curvature H and extrinsic curvature K _e satisfy H = f(H ² ? K _e ), for some function ${f \in \mathcal{C}^1([0,+\infty))}$ such that f(0) = 0 and 4x(f′(x))² < 1 for any x ≥ 0. Furthermore we show the existence of non-complete examples of such surfaces.

Flat Affine Surfaces in \mathbb{R}^4 with Flat Normal Connection

In this paper we study nondegenerate affine surfaces in the 4-dimensional affine space . We assume that both the connection and the normal connection induced by the canonical equiaffine transversal bundle are flat. Surfaces with constant equiaffine transversal bundle are trivial examples of such surfaces. Here, we obtain a complete classification of all such surfaces which do not have constant equiaffine normal bundle.
