Multiple positive solutions for a critical quasilinear elliptic system

The existence of cat_Ω(Ω) positive solutions for the p-Laplacian system with convex and Sobolev critical nonlinearities is obtained by some standard variational methods, whose key is to construct homotopies between Ω and levels of the functional J_λ,μ, and some analytical techniques.     

Strong convergence of approximate solutions for nonlinear hyperbolic equation without convexity

Schonbek [M.E. Schonbek, Convergence of solutions to nonlinear dispersive equations, Comm. Partial Differential Equations 7 (1982) 959-1000] obtained the strong convergence of uniform bounded approximate solutions to hyperbolic scalar equation under the assumption that the flux function is strictly convex. While in this paper, by constructing four families of Lax entropies, we succeed in dealing with the non-convexity with the aid of the well-known Bernstein-Weierstrass theorem, and obtaining the strong convergence of uniform L^∞ or bounded viscosity solutions for scalar conservation law without convexity.

Nonlinear dissipative wave equations with space-time dependent potential

We study the long time behavior of solutions for damped wave equations with absorption. These equations are generally accepted as models of wave propagation in heterogeneous media with space-time dependent friction a(t,x)u_t and nonlinear absorption |u|^p−1u (Ikawa (2000) [17]). We consider 1<p<(n+2)/(n−2) and separable a(t,x)=λ(x)η(t) with λ(x)∼(1+|x|)^−α and η(t)∼(1+t)^−β satisfying conditions (A1) or (A2) which are given. The main results are precise decay estimates for the energy, L² and L^p+1 norms of solutions. We also observe the following behavior: if α∈[0,1), β∈(−1,1) and 0<α+β<1, there are three different regions for the decay of solutions depending on p; if α∈(−∞,0) and β∈(−1,1), there are only two different regions for the decay of the solutions depending on p.     

Remark on uniqueness of mild solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations

We investigate a limiting uniqueness criterion to the Navier-Stokes equations. We prove that the mild solution is unique under the class , where bmo^-1 is the “critical” space including Lⁿ. As an application of uniqueness theorem, we also consider the local well-posedness of Navier-Stokes equations in bmo^-1.     

Blowup for the Euler and Euler-Poisson equations with repulsive forces

In this paper, we study the blowup of the N-dim Euler or Euler-Poisson equations with repulsive forces, in radial symmetry. We provide a novel integration method to show that the non-trivial classical solutions (ρ,V), with compact support in [0,R], where R>0 is a positive constant and in the sense which ρ(t,r)=0 and V(t,r)=0 for r≥R, under the initial condition

This paper studies low-regularity solutions of the periodic general Degasperis-Procesi equation with an initial value. The existence and the uniqueness of solutions are proved. The results are illustrated by considering the periodic peakons of the periodic general Degasperis-Procesi equation.     

Existence of distributional solutions of a closed Dirichlet problem for an elliptic-hyperbolic equation

The closed Dirichlet problem for an elliptic-hyperbolic equation arising in linearizing the Monge-Ampère type equation is shown to admit a distributional solution by using an a-b-c integral method.     

Multiple solutions of two-point nonlinear boundary value problems

A quasi-linear boundary value problem has a solution with properties induced by oscillatory properties of the linear part of an equation. This result is proved for two dimensional systems. Consequences for Φ-Laplacian equations and problems with resonant linear parts are discussed.     

Fourier multipliers and periodic solutions of delay equations in Banach spaces

In this paper we characterize the existence and uniqueness of periodic solutions of inhomogeneous abstract delay equations and establish maximal regularity results for strong solutions. The conditions are obtained in terms of R-boundedness of linear operators determined by the equations and Lp- Fourier multipliers. Periodic mild solutions are also studied and characterized.

Locating the peaks of least-energy solutions to a quasilinear elliptic Neumann problem, Part II

We continue our work (Y. Li, C. Zhao, Locating the peaks of least-energy solutions to a quasilinear elliptic Neumann problem, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 336 (2007) 1368-1383) to study the shape of least-energy solutions to the quasilinear problem ε^mΔ_mu−u^m−1+f(u)=0 with homogeneous Neumann boundary condition. In this paper we focus on the case 1<m<2 as a complement to our previous work on the case m≥2. We use an intrinsic variation method to show that as the case m≥2, when ε→0⁺, the global maximum point P_ε of least-energy solutions goes to a point on the boundary ∂Ω at a rate of o(ε) and this point on the boundary approaches a global maximum point of mean curvature of ∂Ω.
