A remark on the existence of entire positive solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic systems

The existence of solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic systems

Large solutions to non-monotone semilinear elliptic systems

We present the existence of entire large positive radial solutions for the non-monotonic system Δu=p(|x|)g(v), Δv=q(|x|)f(u) on Rn where n?3. The functions f and g satisfy a Keller-Osserman type condition while nonnegative functions p and q are required to satisfy the decay conditions and . Further, p and q are such that min(p,q) does not have compact support.     

Existence and separation of positive radial solutions for semilinear elliptic equations

We consider the semilinear elliptic equation Δu+K(|x|)u^p=0$\mathrm{\Delta }u+K(|x|)u^p=0$ in R^N${\mathbf{R}}^N$ for N>2$N>2$ and p>1$p>1$, and study separation phenomena of positive radial solutions. With respect to intersection and separation, we establish a classification of the solution structures, and investigate the structures of intersection, partial separation and separation. As a consequence, we obtain the existence of positive solutions with slow decay when the oscillation of the function r^−?K(r)$r^{-?}K(r)$ with ?>−2$?>-2$ around a positive constant is small near r=∞$r=\infty$ and p   is sufficiently large. Moreover, if the assumptions hold in the whole space, the equation has the structure of separation and possesses a singular solution as the upper limit of regular solutions. We also reveal that the equation changes its nature drastically across a critical exponent _pc$p_c$ which is determined by N   and the order of the behavior of K(r)$K(r)$ as r=|x|→0$r=|x|\to 0$ and ∞. In order to understand how subtle the structure is on K   at p=_pc$p=p_c$, we explain the criticality in a similar way as done by Ding and Ni (1985) [6] for the critical Sobolev exponent p=(N+2)/(N−2)$p=(N+2)/(N-2)$.

Existence, localization and multiplicity results for positive radial solutions of semilinear elliptic systems

Existence, localization and multiplicity results of positive solutions to a system of singular second-order differential equations are established by means of the vector version of Krasnoselskii's cone fixed point theorem. The results are then applied for positive radial solutions to semilinear elliptic systems.     

Existence of entire positive solutions for semilinear elliptic systems with gradient term

The parameters α and β are positive, and the nonnegative functions p and q are continuous and min{p(r),q(r)} does not have compact support. We show that if αβ?1, then such a solution exists if and only if the functions p and q satisfy

On positive entire solutions of indefinite semilinear elliptic equations

We establish that the elliptic equation Δu+K(x)up+μf(x)=0 in Rn has a continuum of positive entire solutions for small μ?0 under suitable conditions on K, p and f. In particular, K behaves like l|x| at ∞ for some l?−2, but may change sign in a compact region. For given l>−2, there is a critical exponent pc=pc(n,l)>1 in the sense that the result holds for p?pc and involves partial separation of entire solutions. The partial separation means that the set of entire solutions possesses a non-trivial subset in which any two solutions do not intersect. The observation is well known when K is non-negative. The point of the paper is to remove the sign condition on compact region. When l=−2, the result holds for any p>1 while pc is decreasing to 1 as l decreases to −2.
