Global inversion via the Palais-Smale condition

open access: yesDiscrete & Continuous Dynamical Systems - A, 2002
The paper concerns the problem when a local diffeomorphism \(f:\mathbb R^n\to\mathbb R^n\) is bijective. Let \(g\) be a complete Riemannian metric on \(\mathbb R^n\) and \(h:\mathbb R^n\to\mathbb R\) be a smooth function. Let \(\Delta ^{(g)}h\) be its gradient relative to \(g\) i.e. \(g_x(\Delta ^{(g)}h,w)=dh_x(w)\) for all \(w\in \mathbb R^n\).

ON THE PALAIS-SMALE CONDITION FOR NONDIFFERENTIABLE FUNCTIONALS

open access: yesTaiwanese Journal of Mathematics, 2000
In this paper the author studies the relations between some extensions to nonsmooth functionals of the classical Palais-Smale (PS) compactness condition for smooth functionals. In particular the relations between some results of K. C. Chang and other results by Costa and Goncalves are presented.

Global hyperbolicity and Palais–Smale condition for action functionals in stationary spacetimes

open access: yesAdvances in Mathematics, 2008
In order to apply variational methods to the action functional for geodesics of a stationary spacetime, some hypotheses, useful to obtain classical Palais-Smale condition, are commonly used: pseudo-coercivity, bounds on certain coefficients of the metric, etc.

A concave-convex problem with a variable operator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We study the following elliptic problem $-A(u) = \lambda u^q$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions, where $A(u) (x) = \Delta u (x) \chi_{D_1} (x)+ \Delta_p u(x) \chi_{D_2}(x)$ is the Laplacian in one part of the domain, $D_1$, and the $p-$Laplacian (with ...

Existence of Positive Solutions of Semilinear Biharmonic Equations

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
This paper is concerned with the existence of positive solutions of semilinear biharmonic problem whose associated functionals do not satisfy the Palais-Smale condition.

A Critical Point Theorem for Perturbed Functionals and Low Perturbations of Differential and Nonlocal Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Nonlinear Studies, 2020
In this paper we establish a new critical point theorem for a class of perturbed differentiable functionals without satisfying the Palais–Smale condition.

Stationary Kirchhoff problems involving a fractional elliptic operator and a critical nonlinearity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper deals with the existence and the asymptotic behavior of non-negative solutions for a class of stationary Kirchhoff problems driven by a fractional integro-differential operator $\mathcal L_K$ and involving a critical nonlinearity.

A Viscosity Method for the Min-Max Construction of Closed Geodesics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present a viscosity approach to the min-max construction of closed geodesics on compact Riemannian manifolds of arbitrary dimension. We also construct counter-examples in dimension $1$ and $2$ to the $\varepsilon$-regularity in the convergence ...

Sensitivity of a Fractional Integrodifferential Cauchy Problem of Volterra Type

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
We prove a theorem on the existence and uniqueness of a solution as well as on a sensitivity (i.e., differentiable dependence of a solution on a functional parameter) of a fractional integrodifferential Cauchy problem of Volterra type.
