Nonexistence and existence of positive solutions for the Kirchhoff type equation

In this paper, we study the nonexistence and existence of positive solutions for the Kirchhoff type equation with nonlinearity having prescribed asymptotic behavior. Because of the structure of our equation, our nonexistence results have some special properties, and our conditions for positive solutions are also different from the existing results.

Solutions of the autonomous Kirchhoff type equations in RN

Recently, the existence, the multiplicity and the concentration of solutions for the Kirchhoff type equations or systems have been extensively established by a number of authors. Such problems contain a nonlocal term which implies that the equation or system is no longer a pointwise identity. Thus, some researchers think that the nonlocal phenomenon will cause some mathematical difficulties. In this note, however, we will give a simple transformation so that the solutions of the autonomous Kirchhoff type equation or system are easily obtained by using the known solutions of the corresponding local equation or system. In particular, some qualitative properties of solutions for the local problems are also inherited.

Multiplicity of solutions for a class of Kirchhoff type problems

In this paper we apply the （variant） fountain theorems to study the symmetric nonlinear Kirch- hoff nonlocal problems. Under the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz＇s 4-superlinearity condition, or no Ambrosetti- Rabinowitz＇s 4-superlinearity condition, we present two results of existence of infinitely many large energy solutions, respectively.     

Multiple solutions for fourth-order boundary value problem

In this paper, we study the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions for the fourth-order two point boundary value problems. Making use of the theory of fixed point index in cone and Leray-Schauder degree, under general conditions on nonlinearity, we prove that there exist at least six different nontrivial solutions for the fourth-order two point boundary value problems. Furthermore, if the nonlinearity is odd, we obtain that there exist at least eight different nontrivial solutions.     

Infinitely many nodal solutions with a prescribed number of nodes for the Kirchhoff type equations

In this paper, we investigate the existence of multiple radial sign-changing solutions with the nodal characterization for a class of Kirchhoff type problems$\{\begin{array}{cc}\hfill & ?(a+b|\mathrm{?}u{|}_{L^2}^2)\mathrm{\Delta }u+V(|x|)u=K(|x|)f(u)\text{in}{\mathbb{R}}^N,\hfill \\ \hfill & u\in H^1({\mathbb{R}}^N),\hfill \end{array}$ where $N=1,2,3,a,b>0$, $V,K$ are radial and bounded away from below by positive numbers. Under some weak assumptions on $f\in C^0(\mathbb{R};\mathbb{R})$, by taking advantage of the Gersgorin disc's theorem and Miranda theorem, we develop some new analytic techniques and prove that this problem admits infinitely many nodal solutions $\{U_k^b\}$ having a prescribed number of nodes k, whose energy is strictly increasing in k. Moreover, the asymptotic behaviors of $U_k^b$ as $b\to 0_{+}$ are established. These results improve and generalize the previous results in the literature.

This paper is devoted to the construction of weak solutions to the singular constant Q-curvature problem. We build on several tools developed in the last years. This is the first construction of singular metrics on closed manifolds of sufficiently large dimension with constant (positive) Q-curvature.

Classification of low energy sign-changing solutions of an almost critical problem

In this paper we make the analysis of the blow up of low energy sign-changing solutions of a semilinear elliptic problem involving nearly critical exponent. Our results allow to classify these solutions according to the concentration speeds of the positive and negative part and, in high dimensions, lead to complete classification of them. Additional qualitative results, such as symmetry or location of the concentration points are obtained when the domain is a ball.     

Infinitely many solutions for a nonlocal problem

Consider a class of nonlocal problems $$ \left \{\begin{array}{ll} -(a-b\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^2dx)\Delta u= f(x,u),& \textrm{$x \in\Omega$},\u=0, & \textrm{$x \in\partial\Omega$}, \end{array} \right. $$ where $a>0, b>0$,~$\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^N$ is a bounded open domain, $f:\overline{\Omega} \times \mathbb R \longrightarrow \mathbb R $ is a Carath$\acute{\mbox{e}}$odory function. Under suitable conditions, the equivariant link theorem without the $(P.S.)$ condition due to Willem is applied to prove that the above problem has infinitely many solutions, whose energy increasingly tends to $a^2/(4b)$, and they are neither large nor small.
