Maximum Principles for Null Hypersurfaces and Null Splitting Theorems [PDF]
A maximum principle for C^0 null hypersurfaces is obtained and used to derive a splitting theorem for spacetimes which contain null lines. As a consequence of this null splitting theorem, it is proved that an asymptotically simple vacuum (Ricci flat ...

Some maximum principles for solutions of a class of partial differential equations in Ω⊂ℝn [PDF]
We find maximum principles for solutions of semilinear elliptic partial differential equations of the forms: (1) Δ2u+αf(u)=0, α∈ℝ+ and (2) ΔΔu+α(Δu)k+gu=0, α≤0 in some region Ω⊂ℝn.

Maximum principles for a family of nonlocal boundary value problems [PDF]
We study a family of three-point nonlocal boundary value problems (BVPs) for an nth-order linear forward difference equation. In particular, we obtain a maximum principle and determine sign properties of a corresponding Green function.

Nonlinear maximum principles for dissipative linear nonlocal operators and applications
We obtain a family of nonlinear maximum principles for linear dissipative nonlocal operators, that are general, robust, and versatile. We use these nonlinear bounds to provide transparent proofs of global regularity for critical SQG and critical d ...

Maximum principles for boundary-degenerate second-order linear elliptic differential operators [PDF]
We prove weak and strong maximum principles, including a Hopf lemma, for smooth subsolutions to equations defined by linear, second-order, partial differential operators whose principal symbols vanish along a portion of the domain boundary.

Peyronie's Reconstruction for Maximum Length and Girth Gain: Geometrical Principles [PDF]
Peyronie's disease has been associated with penile shortening and some degree of erectile dysfunction. Surgical reconstruction should be based on giving a functional penis, that is, rectifying the penis with rigidity enough to make the sexual intercourse.

Comprehensive Studies on Operational Principles for Maximum Power Point Tracking in Photovoltaic Systems [PDF]
Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is essential in Photovoltaic (PV) systems, which has drawn significant research effort in the past. The operation is to adjust the power interfaces so that the operating characteristics of the consumption and the PV ...

Principal eigenvalues for k-Hessian operators by maximum principle methods
For fully nonlinear $k$-Hessian operators on bounded strictly $(k-1)$-convex domains $\Omega$ of $\R^N$, a characterization of the principal eigenvalue associated to a $k$-convex and negative principal eigenfunction will be given as the supremum over ...
