On the asymptotic behavior of solutions of nonlinear second-order parabolic equations

We study the asymptotic behavior as t → +∞ of solutions to a semilinear second-order parabolic equation in a cylindrical domain bounded in the spatial variable. We find the leading term of the asymptotic expansion of a solution as t → +∞ and show that each solution of the problem under consideration is asymptotically equivalent to a solution of some nonlinear ordinary differential equation.     

The asymptotic behavior of solutions of nonlinear second-order difference equations

In this paper, we study the boundedness and monotonicity properties of solutions of the difference equation

where {r_n}, {q_n}, {p_n}, and {e_n} are real sequences and α and β are ratios of odd positive integers. Examples illustrating our results are included.     

Oscillation and asymptotic behavior for second-order nonlinear perturbed differential equations

In this paper, for all regular solutions of a class of second-order nonlinear perturbed differential equations, new oscillation criteria are established. Asymptotic behavior for forced equations is also discussed.     

On maximum principles for a class of nonlinear second-order elliptic equations

In a recent paper [3] the authors derived maximum principles which involved $\text{u(x)}\text{and}\text{q = ¦}\text{grad}\text{u¦}$, where u(x) is a classical solution of an alliptic differential equation of the form ($\text{g(q}{}^2\text{)u}{}_{\mathrm{,i}}\text{)}{}_{\mathrm{,i}}\text{+ ?(u) ?(q}{}^2\text{) = 0}$. In this paper these results are extended to the more general case in which $\text{g = g(u, q}{}^2\text{)}\text{and}\text{?(u) ?(q}{}^2\text{)}$ is replaced by h(u, q²).     

On the asymptotic behavior of solutions of quasilinear elliptic equations

The asymptotic behavior of solutions of second-order quasilinear elliptic and nonhyperbolic partial differential equations defined on unbounded domains inR ⁿ contained in\(\{ x_1 ,...,x_n :\left| {x_n } \right|< \lambda \sqrt {x_1^2 + ...x_{n - 1}^2 } \) for certain sublinear functions λ is investigated when such solutions satisfy Dirichlet boundary conditions and the Dirichlet boundary data has appropriate asymptotic behavior at infinity. We prove Phragmèn-Lindelöf theorems for large classes of nonhyperbolic operators, without «lower order terms”, including uniformly elliptic operators and operators with well-definedgenre, using special barrier functions which are constructed by considering an operator associated to our original operator. We also estimate the rate at which a solution converges to its limiting function at infinity in terms of properties of the top order coefficienta _nn of the operator and the rate at which the boundary values converge to their limiting function; these results are proven using appropriate barrier functions which depend on the behavior of the coefficients of the operator and the rate of convergence of boundary values.     

On the behavior of solutions of a semilinear parabolic or elliptic equation satisfying a nonlinear boundary condition in a cylindrical domain

One considers a semilinear parabolic equation u _t = Lu − a(x)f(u) or an elliptic equation u _tt + Lu − a(x)f(u) = 0 in a semi-infinite cylinder Ω × ℝ₊ with the nonlinear boundary condition , where L is a uniformly elliptic divergent operator in a bounded domain Ω ∈ ℝⁿ; a(x) and b(x) are nonnegative measurable functions in Ω. One studies the asymptotic behavior of solutions of such boundary-value problems for t → ∞. __________ Translated from Trudy Seminara imeni I. G. Petrovskogo, No. 26, pp. 368–389, 2007.     

Full low-frequency asymptotic expansion for second-order elliptic equations in two dimensions

The present paper contains the low-frequency expansions of solutions of a large class of exterior boundary value problems involving second-order elliptic equations in two dimensions. The differential equations must coincide with the Helmholtz equation in a neighbourhood of infinity, however, they may depart radically from the Helmholtz equation in any bounded region provided they retain ellipticity. In some cases the asymptotic expansion has the form of a power series with respect to k² and k² (ln k + a)^?1, where k is the wave number and a is a constant. In other cases it has the form of a power series with respect to k², coefficients of which depend polynomially on In k. The procedure for determining the full low-frequency expansion of solutions of the exterior Dirichlet and Neumann problems for the Helmholtz equation is included as a special case of the results presented here.     

Existence of solutions to second-order nonlinear discrete elliptic equations

In this paper, we consider a boundary value problem (BVP) for second-order nonlinear partial difference equations on finite lattice domains. Some conditions are established that ensure existence and uniqueness of solutions to the BVP under consideration.     

Strongly nonlinear multivalued elliptic equations on a bounded domain

In this work we study the existence of nontrivial solution for the following class of multivalued quasilinear problems $$\begin{aligned} \displaystyle -\text{ div } ( \phi (|\nabla u|) \nabla u) - b(u)u \in \lambda \partial F(x,u)\;\text{ in }\;\Omega , \quad u=0\; \text{ on }\;\partial \Omega \end{aligned}$$ where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R }^N$ is a bounded domain, $N\ge 2$ and $\partial F(x,u)$ is a generalized gradient of $F(x,t)$ with respect to $t$ . The main tools utilized are Variational Methods for Locally Lipschitz Functional and a Concentration Compactness Theorem for Orlicz space.
