Species survival versus eigenvalues

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 2004, Issue 2, Page 115-131, 2004., 2004
Mathematical models describing the behavior of hypothetical species in spatially heterogeneous environments are discussed and analyzed using the fibering method devised and developed by S. I. Pohozaev.

An elliptic problem with critical exponent and positive Hardy potential

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 2004, Issue 2, Page 91-98, 2004., 2004
We give the existence result and the vanishing order of the solution in 0 for the following equation: −Δu(x) + (μ/|x|2)u(x) = λu(x) + u2*−1(x), where x ∈ B1, μ > 0, and the potential μ/|x|2 − λ is positive in B1.

Solutions for nonlinear variational inequalities with a nonsmooth potential

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 2004, Issue 8, Page 635-649, 2004., 2004
First we examine a resonant variational inequality driven by the p‐Laplacian and with a nonsmooth potential. We prove the existence of a nontrivial solution. Then we use this existence theorem to obtain nontrivial positive solutions for a class of resonant elliptic equations involving the p‐Laplacian and a nonsmooth potential.

Multiple positive solutions for quasilinear elliptic problems with sign‐changing nonlinearities

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 2004, Issue 12, Page 1047-1055, 2004., 2004
Using variational arguments, we prove some nonexistence and multiplicity results for positive solutions of a system of p‐Laplace equations of gradient form. Then we study a p‐Laplace‐type problem with nonlinear boundary conditions.

Symmetry and concentration behavior of ground state in axially symmetric domains

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 2004, Issue 12, Page 1019-1030, 2004., 2004
We let Ω(r) be the axially symmetric bounded domains which satisfy some suitable conditions, then the ground‐state solutions of the semilinear elliptic equation in Ω(r) are nonaxially symmetric and concentrative on one side. Furthermore, we prove the necessary and sufficient condition for the symmetry of ground‐state solutions.

An equality for the curvature function of a simple and closed curve on the plane

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2003, Issue 49, Page 3115-3122, 2003., 2003
We prove an equality for the curvature function of a simple and closed curve on the plane. This equality leads to another proof of the four‐vertex theorem in differential geometry. While examining the regularity assumption on the curve for the equality, we make comments on the relation between the boundary regularity of a Riemann mapping and two ...

Minimax theorems on C1 manifolds via Ekeland variational principle

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 2003, Issue 13, Page 757-768, 2003., 2003
We prove two minimax principles to find almost critical points of C1 functionals restricted to globally defined C1 manifolds of codimension 1. The proof of the theorems relies on Ekeland variational principle.

Steady vortex flows obtained from a constrained variational problem

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 30, Issue 5, Page 283-300, 2002., 2002
We prove the existence of steady two‐dimensional ideal vortex flows occupying the first quadrant and containing a bounded vortex; this is done by solving a constrained variational problem. Kinetic energy is maximized subject to the vorticity, being a rearrangement of a prescribed function and subject to a linear constraint.

On Neumann hemivariational inequalities

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 103-112, 2002., 2002
We derive a nontrivial solution for a Neumann noncoercive hemivariational inequality using the critical point theory for locally Lipschitz functionals. We use the Mountain‐Pass theorem due to Chang (1981).

On the location of the peaks of least‐energy solutions to semilinear Dirichlet problems with critical growth

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 7, Issue 10, Page 547-561, 2002., 2002
We study the location of the peaks of solution for the critical growth problem −ε 2Δu+u=f(u)+u 2*−1, u > 0 in Ω, u = 0 on ∂Ω, where Ω is a bounded domain; 2* = 2N/(N − 2), N ≥ 3, is the critical Sobolev exponent and f has a behavior like up, 1 < p < 2* − 1.
