Uniqueness of weak solution for nonlinear elliptic equations in divergence form
We study the uniqueness of weak solutions for quasilinear elliptic equations in divergence form. Some counterexamples are given to show that our uniqueness result cannot be improved in the general case.

A Picard‐Maclaurin theorem for initial value PDEs
In 1988, Parker and Sochacki announced a theorem which proved that the Picard iteration, properly modified, generates the Taylor series solution to any ordinary differential equation (ODE) on ℜn with a polynomial generator. In this paper, we present an analogous theorem for partial differential equations (PDEs) with polynomial generators and analytic ...

A vanishing diffusion limit in a nonstandard system of phase field equations [PDF]
We are concerned with a nonstandard phase field model of Cahn-Hilliard type. The model, which was introduced by Podio-Guidugli (Ric. Mat. 2006), describes two-species phase segregation and consists of a system of two highly nonlinearly coupled PDEs.

Oscillatory and periodic solutions to a diffusion equation of neutral type
We examine a PDE with piecewise constant time delay. The equation is of neutral type since it contains the derivative ut at different values of the t‐argument. Furthermore, the argument deviation changes its sign within intervals of unit length, so that the given PDE is alternately of retarded and advanced type.

Uniqueness and comparison principles for semilinear equations and inequalities in Carnot groups
Variants of the Kato inequality are proved for distributional solutions of semilinear equations and inequalities on Carnot groups. Various applications to uniqueness, comparison of solutions and Liouville theorems are presented.

Eigenelements of a General Aggregation-Fragmentation Model [PDF]
We consider a linear integro-differential equation which arises to describe both aggregation-fragmentation processes and cell division. We prove the existence of a solution $(\lb,\U,\phi)$ to the related eigenproblem.

Nonlinear functional integrodifferential equations in Hilbert space
Let X be a Hilbert space and let Ω ⊂ Rn be a bounded domain with smooth boundary ∂Ω. We establish the existence and norm estimation of solutions for the parabolic partial functional integro‐differential equation in X by using the fundamental solution.

Multiple solutions for a problem with resonance involving the p‐Laplacian
In this paper we will investigate the existence of multiple solutions for the problem where Δpu = div(|∇u|p−2∇u) is the p‐Laplacian operator, Ω⫅ℝN is a bounded domain with smooth boundary, h and g are bounded functions, N ≥ 1 and 1 < p < ∞. Using the Mountain Pass Theorem and the Ekeland Variational Principle, we will show the existence of at least ...
