Multiple solutions for a class of biharmonic elliptic systems with Sobolev critical exponent

In this paper, we study the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions for a class of biharmonic elliptic systems with Sobolev critical exponent in a bounded domain. By using the variational method and the Nehari manifold, we obtain the existence and multiplicity results of nontrivial solutions for the systems.     

Multiplicity of solutions for quasilinear elliptic systems with critical growth

We study the existence of multiple solutions for a quasilinear elliptic system of gradient type with critical growth and the possibility of coupling on the subcritical term. The solutions are obtained from a version of the Symmetric Mountain Pass Theorem. The Concentration-Compactness Principle allows to verify that the Palais-Smale condition is satisfied below a certain level. The authors were partially supported by CNPq/Brazil     

Sign-changing solutions of critical growth nonlinear elliptic systems

In this paper, we are concerned with the existence of sign-changing solutions of a class of nonlinear elliptic systems with critical growth.     

Multiple solutions of nonlinear elliptic systems

We proved a multiplicity result for a nonlinear elliptic system in R^N. The functional related to the system is strongly indefinite. We investigated the relation between the number of solutions and the topology of the set of the global maxima of the coefficients.     

On nontrivial solutions of critical polyharmonic elliptic systems

In the present work, we consider elliptic systems involving polyharmonic operators and critical exponents. We discuss the existence and nonexistence of nontrivial solutions to these systems. Our theorems improve and/or extend the ones established by Bartsch and Guo [T. Bartsch, Y. Guo, Existence and nonexistence results for critical growth polyharmonic elliptic systems, J. Differential Equations 220 (2006) 531-543] in both aspects of spectral interaction and regularity of lower order perturbations.     

Soliton solutions for quasilinear Schrödinger equations with critical growth

In this paper we establish the existence of standing wave solutions for quasilinear Schrödinger equations involving critical growth. By using a change of variables, the quasilinear equations are reduced to semilinear one, whose associated functionals are well defined in the usual Sobolev space and satisfy the geometric conditions of the mountain pass theorem. Using this fact, we obtain a Cerami sequence converging weakly to a solution v. In the proof that v is nontrivial, the main tool is the concentration-compactness principle due to P.L. Lions together with some classical arguments used by H. Brezis and L. Nirenberg (1983) in [9].     

Multiple solutions for elliptic systems with nonlinearities of arbitrary growth

We prove the existence of infinitely many solutions for symmetric elliptic systems with nonlinearities of arbitrary growth. Moreover, if the symmetry of the problem is broken by a small enough perturbation term, we find at least three solutions. The proofs utilise a variational setting given by de Figueiredo and Ruf in order to prove an existence's result and the “algebraic” approach based on the Pohozaev's fibering method.     

Multiple positive solutions for a quasilinear elliptic equation with critical exponential nonlinearity

Structure of least-energy solutions for quasilinear elliptic equations on convex domains

In this paper we study the existence and structure of the least-energy solutions for a class of singularly perturbed quasilinear elliptic equations. Using the moving plane method and a geometric lemma we show that any least-energy solution develops to a single spike-layer solution on convex domains.     

Gradient estimates for solutions to quasilinear elliptic equations with critical sobolev growth and hardy potential

This note is a continuation of the work[17].We study the following quasilinear elliptic equations(■)where 1 p N,0 ≤μ ((N-p)/p)~p and Q ∈ L~∞(R~N).Optimal asymptotic estimates on the gradient of solutions are obtained both at the origin and at the infinity.     

Soliton solutions for quasilinear Schrödinger equations: The critical exponential case

Quasilinear elliptic equations in R²${\mathbb{R}}^2$ of second order with critical exponential growth are considered. By using a change of variable, the quasilinear equations are reduced to semilinear equations, whose respective associated functionals are well defined in H¹(R²)$H^1\left({\mathbb{R}}^2\right)$ and satisfy the geometric hypotheses of the mountain pass theorem. Using this fact, we obtain a Cerami sequence converging weakly to a solution v$v$. In the proof that v$v$ is nontrivial, the main tool is the concentration–compactness principle [P.L. Lions, The concentration compactness principle in the calculus of variations. The locally compact case. Part I and II, Ann. Inst. H. Poincaré Anal. Non. Linéaire 1 (1984) 109–145, 223–283] combined with test functions connected with optimal Trudinger–Moser inequality.     

Nontrivial solutions to semilinear elliptic problems involving two critical Hardy-Sobolev exponents

In this paper, we investigate a semilinear elliptic equation, which involves doubly critical Hardy-Sobolev exponents and a Hardy-type term. By means of the Linking Theorem and delicate energy estimates, the existence of nontrivial solutions to the problem is established.     

On the singular elliptic systems involving multiple critical Sobolev exponents

In this paper, a singular elliptic system is investigated, which involves multiple critical Sobolev exponents and Hardy-type terms. By using variational methods and analytical techniques, the existence of positive and sign-changing solutions to the system is established.     

On positive solution for a class of degenerate quasilinear elliptic positone/semipositone systems

This paper deals with the existence and nonexistence of positive weak solutions of degenerate quasilinear elliptic systems with subcritical and critical exponents. The nonlinearities involved have semipositone and positone structures and the existence results are obtained by applying the lower and upper-solution method and variational techniques.     

Nontrivial solutions for critical potential elliptic systems

We consider potential elliptic systems involving p-Laplace operators, critical nonlinearities and lower-order perturbations. Suitable necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of nontrivial solutions are presented. In particular, a number of results on Brezis-Nirenberg type problems are extended in a unified framework.     

Asymptotic behaviour of large solutions of quasilinear elliptic problems

The paper deals with the large solutions of the problems $\triangle u=u^p$ and $\triangle u= e^u.$ They blow up at the boundary. It is well-known that the first term in their asymptotic behaviour near the boundary is independent of the geometry of the boundary. We determine the second term which depends on the mean curvature of the nearest point on the boundary. The computation is based on suitable upper and lower solutions and on estimates given in [4]. In the last section these estimates are used together with the P-function to establish the asymptotic behaviour of the gradients.
