On a class of singular elliptic problems with the perturbed Hardy–Sobolev operator

In this paper, firstly, we investigate a class of singular eigenvalue problems with the perturbed Hardy–Sobolev operator, and obtain some properties of the eigenvalues and the eigenfunctions. (i.e. existence, simplicity, isolation and comparison results). Secondly, applying these properties of eigenvalue problem, and the linking theorem for two symmetric cones in Banach space, we discuss the following singular elliptic problem $$\left\{\begin{array}{ll}-\Delta_{p}u-a(x)\frac{|u|^{p-2}u}{|x|^{p}}= \lambda \eta(x)|u|^{p-2}u+ f(x,u) \quad x \in \Omega, \\ u =0 \quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad x\in\partial \Omega, \end{array} \right.$$ where ${a(x)=(\frac{n-p}{p})^{p}q(x),}$ if 1 < p < n, ${a(x)=(\frac{n-1}{n})^{n} \frac{q(x)}{({\rm log}\frac{R}{|x|})^{n}},}$ if p = n, and prove the existence of a nontrivial weak solution for any ${\lambda \in \mathbb{R}.}$

On the shape of solutions to an integral system related to the weighted Hardy–Littlewood–Sobolev inequality

We study the Euler–Lagrange system for a variational problem associated with the weighted Hardy–Littlewood–Sobolev inequality. We show that all the nonnegative solutions to the system are radially symmetric and have particular profiles around the origin and the infinity. This paper extends previous results obtained by other authors to the general case.     

On the existence of singular solutions of the stationary Navier–Stokes problem

We consider the steady Navier–Stokes equations in the punctured regions (?) Ω?=?Ω ₀ \ {o} (with {o} ∈ Ω ₀) and (??) $ \varOmega ={{\mathbb{R}}^2}\backslash \left( {{{\overline{\varOmega}}_0}\cup \left\{ o \right\}} \right) $ (with $ \left\{ o \right\}\notin {{\overline{\varOmega}}_0} $ ), where Ω ₀ is a simple connected Lipschitz bounded domain of $ {{\mathbb{R}}^2} $ . We regard o as a sink or a source in the fluid. Accordingly, we assign the flux $ \mathcal{F} $ through a small circumference surrounding o and a boundary datum a on Γ?=??Ω ₀ such that the total flux $ \mathcal{F}+\int\nolimits_{\varGamma } {\boldsymbol{a}\cdot \boldsymbol{n}} $ is zero in case (?). We prove that if $ \left| \mathcal{F} \right|<2\pi \nu $ and $ \left| \mathcal{F} \right|+\left| {\int\nolimits_{\varGamma } {\boldsymbol{a}\cdot \boldsymbol{n}} } \right|<2\pi \nu $ in (?) and (??), respectively, where ν is the kinematical viscosity, then the problem has a C ^∞ solution in Ω, which behaves at o like the gradient of the fundamental solution of the Laplace equation.

Qualitative properties of solutions of an integral equation associated with the Benjamin–Ono–Zakharov–Kuznetsov operator

We study qualitative properties of solutions of an integral equation associated the Benjamin–Ono–Zakharov–Kuznetsov operator. We establish the regularity of the positive solutions without the assumption of being in fractional Sobolev–Liouville spaces. Moreover we show that the solutions are axially symmetric. Furthermore we establish Lipschitz continuity and the decay rate of the solutions.

In the present paper, a quasilinear elliptic problem with a critical Sobolev exponent and a Hardy-type term is considered. By means of a variational method, the existence of nontrivial solutions for the problem is obtained. The result depends crucially on the parameters p,t,s,λ$p,t,s,\lambda$ and μ$\mu$.

Asymptotic radial symmetry and growth estimates of positive solutions to weighted Hardy–Littlewood–Sobolev system of integral equations

In this article, we study the asymptotics of the positive solutions of the Euler–Lagrange system of the weighted Hardy–Littlewood–Sobolev in R ⁿ $$\begin{array}{ll} u(x) = \frac{1}{|x|^{\alpha}}\int\limits_{R^{n}} \frac{v(y)^q}{|y|^{\beta}|x-y|^{\lambda}} dy,\\ v(x) = \frac{1}{|x|^{\beta}}\int\limits_{R^{n}} \frac{u(y)^p}{|y|^{\alpha}|x-y|^{\lambda}} dy.\end{array}$$ A new iterative method is introduced to obtain the optimal weighted local integrability of u(x). By this new method, we establish the asymptotic estimates of the solutions around the origin and near infinity. With these new estimates, we complete the study of the asymptotic behavior of the solutions. We believe this new iterative method and the new type of the weighted local estimates can be used in many other cases.
