Improved Sobolev embeddings, profile decomposition, and concentration-compactness for fractional Sobolev spaces

open access: yes, 2013
We obtain an improved Sobolev inequality in H^s spaces involving Morrey norms. This refinement yields a direct proof of the existence of optimizers and the compactness up to symmetry of optimizing sequences for the usual Sobolev embedding. More generally,

Symmetrization and minimax principles

open access: yes, 2005
We develop a method to prove that some critical levels for functionals invariant by symmetry obtained by minimax methods without any symmetry constraint are attained by symmetric critical points.

Concentration-Compactness Principle for embedding into multiple exponential spaces [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Inequalities & Applications, 2012
Let Ω⊂Rn , n 2 , be a bounded domain and let α < n−1 . We prove the ConcentrationCompactness Principle for the embedding of the Orlicz-Sobolev space W 1 0 L n logn−1 L logα logL(Ω) into the Orlicz space corresponding to a Young function that behaves like exp(exp(t n n−1−α )) for large t .

Equations involving fractional Laplacian operator: Compactness and application

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, we consider the following problem involving fractional Laplacian operator: \begin{equation}\label{eq:0.1} (-\Delta)^{\alpha} u= |u|^{2^*_\alpha-2-\varepsilon}u + \lambda u\,\, {\rm in}\,\, \Omega,\quad u=0 \,\, {\rm on}\, \, \partial\Omega,

A study and an application of the concentration compactness type principle

open access: yes, 2019
In this article we develop a concentration compactness type principle in a variable exponent setup. As an application of this principle we discuss a problem involving fractional `{\it $(p(x),p^+)$-Laplacian}' and power nonlinearities with exponents $(p^+)^*$, $p_s^*(x)$ with the assumption that the critical set $\{x\in :p_s^*(x)=(p^+)^*\}$ is nonempty.

Groundstates for a local nonlinear perturbation of the Choquard equations with lower critical exponent

open access: yes, 2017
We prove the existence of ground state solutions by variational methods to the nonlinear Choquard equations with a nonlinear perturbation \[ -{\Delta}u+ u=\big(I_\alpha*|u|^{\frac{\alpha}{N}+1}\big)|u|^{\frac{\alpha}{N}-1}u+f(x,u)\qquad \text{ in ...

Palais-Smale approaches to semilinear elliptic equations in unbounded domains

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2004
Let \(\Omega\) be a domain in \(\mathbb{R}^{N}\), \(N\geq1\), and \(2^{\ast}=\infty\) if \(N=1,2\), \(2^{\ast}=\frac{2N}{N-2}\) if \(N\) is greater than 2, \(2 < p < 2^{\ast}\). Consider the semilinear elliptic problem $$\displaylines{ -\Delta u+u=|u|^{p-

Lower Semicontinuity of Functionals via the Concentration-Compactness Principle

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 2001
AbstractIn this paper we show the weak lower semicontinuity of some classes of functionals, using the concentration-compactness principle of P. L. Lions. These functionals involve an integral term, and we do not know whether it can be handled by the De Giorgi theorem.

Looping dynamics of flexible chain with internal friction at different degree of compactness

open access: yes, 2015
Recently single molecule experiments have shown the importance of internal friction in biopolymer dynamics. Such studies also suggested that the internal friction although independent of solvent viscosity has strong dependence on denaturant concentration.

Nonlinear stabilitty for steady vortex pairs

open access: yes, 2012
In this article, we prove nonlinear orbital stability for steadily translating vortex pairs, a family of nonlinear waves that are exact solutions of the incompressible, two-dimensional Euler equations.
