Non-classical Eigenvalue Asymptotic for Elliptic Operators of Second Order in Unbounded Trumpet-shaped Domains with Neumann Boundary Conditions

The paper deals with spectral properties of elliptic operators of second order in irregular unbounded domains with cusps. The eigenvalue asymptotic of the operator with Neumann boundary conditions is proved. The eigenvalue asymptotic in these domains is different from that with Dirichlet boundary conditions.

Eigenvalue Gap Theorems for a Class of Nonsymmetric Elliptic Operators on Convex Domains

Adapting the method of Andrews-Clutterbuck we prove an eigenvalue gap theorem for a class of non symmetric second order linear elliptic operators on a convex domain in euclidean space. The class of operators includes the Bakry-Emery laplacian with potential and any operator with second order term the laplacian whose first order terms have coefficients with compact support in the open domain. The eigenvalue gap is bounded below by the gap of an associated Sturm-Liouville problem on a closed interval.     

Eigenvalue Distribution of Positive Definite Kernels on Unbounded Domains

We study eigenvalues of positive definite kernels of L² integral operators on unbounded real intervals. Under the assumptions of integrability and uniform continuity of the kernel on the diagonal the operator is compact and trace class. We establish sharp results which determine the eigenvalue distribution as a function of the smoothness of the kernel and its decay rate at infinity along the diagonal. The main result deals at once with all possible orders of differentiability and all possible rates of decay of the kernel. The known optimal results for eigenvalue distribution of positive definite kernels in compact intervals are particular cases. These results depend critically on a 2-parameter differential family of inequalities for the kernel which is a consequence of positivity and is a differential generalization of diagonal dominance.     

Shear Flows of an Ideal Fluid and Elliptic Equations in Unbounded Domains

We prove that, in a two‐dimensional strip, a steady flow of an ideal incompressible fluid with no stationary point and tangential boundary conditions is a shear flow. The same conclusion holds for a bounded steady flow in a half‐plane. The proofs are based on the study of the geometric properties of the streamlines of the flow and on one‐dimensional symmetry results for solutions of some semilinear elliptic equations. Some related rigidity results of independent interest are also shown in n‐dimensional slabs in any dimension n.© 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Positive Solutions of Nonlinear Elliptic Equations in Unbounded Domains in R 2

We study the existence of positive solutions of the nonlinear equation u+f(,u)=0, in D with u=0 on D, where D is an unbounded domain in R ² with a compact nonempty boundary D consisting of finitely many Jordan curves. The aim is to prove an existence result for the above equation in a general setting by using potential theory.

A Morse Index Theorem for Elliptic Operators on Bounded Domains

Given a selfadjoint, elliptic operator L, one would like to know how the spectrum changes as the spatial domain Ω ? ? ⁿ is deformed. For a family of domains {Ω _t } _{t∈[a, b]} we prove that the Morse index of L on Ω _a differs from the Morse index of L on Ω _b by the Maslov index of a path of Lagrangian subspaces on the boundary of Ω. This is particularly useful when Ω _a is a domain for which the Morse index is known, e.g. a region with very small volume. Then the Maslov index computes the difference of Morse indices for the “original” problem (on Ω _b ) and the “simplified” problem (on Ω _a ). This generalizes previous multi-dimensional Morse index theorems that were only available on star-shaped domains or for Dirichlet boundary conditions. We also discuss how one can compute the Maslov index using crossing forms, and present some applications to the spectral theory of Dirichlet and Neumann boundary value problems.     

On a Class of Weakly Coupled Systems of Elliptic Operators with Unbounded Coefficients

We consider a class of weakly coupled systems of elliptic operators \({\mathcal{A}}\) with unbounded coefficients defined in \({\mathbb{R}^N}\). We prove that a semigroup (T(t))t ≥ 0 of bounded linear operators can be associated with \({\mathcal{A}}\), in a natural way, in the space of all bounded and continuous functions. We prove a compactness property of the semigroup as well as some uniform estimates on the derivatives of the function T(t)f, when f belongs to some spaces of Hölder continuous functions, which are the key tools to prove some optimal Schauder estimates for the solution to some nonhomogeneous elliptic equations and Cauchy problems associated with the operator \({\mathcal{A}}\). Under suitable additional conditions, we then prove that the restriction of the semigroup to the subspace of smooth and compactly supported functions extends by a strongly continuous semigroup to L ^p -spaces over \({\mathbb{R}^N}\), related to the Lebesgue measure, when \({p \in [1,\infty)}\). We also provide sufficient conditions for this semigroup to be analytic when \({p \in [1,\infty)}\). Finally, we prove some L ^p ?L ^q -estimates.     

Equivalence of Entropy and Renormalized Solutions of Anisotropic Elliptic Problem in Unbounded Domains with Measure Data

We consider a class of anisotropic elliptic equations of second order with variable exponents of non-linearity where a special Radon measure is used as the right-hand side. We establish uniqueness of entropy and renormalized solutions of the Dirichlet problem in anisotropic Sobolev spaces with variable exponents of non-linearity for arbitrary domains and certain other their properties. In addition, we prove the equivalence of entropy and renormalized solutions of the problem under consideration.
