On the Palais-Smale condition in geometric knot theory

open access: yes
We prove that various families of energies relevant in geometric knot theory satisfy the Palais-Smale condition (PS) on submanifolds of arclength para\-metrized knots. These energies include linear combinations of the Euler-Bernoulli bending energy with a wide variety of non-local knot energies, such as O'Hara's self-repulsive potentials $E^{α,p}

Existence of solutions for p-Kirchhoff type problems with critical exponent

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2011
We study the existence of solutions for the p-Kirchhoff type problem involving the critical Sobolev exponent, $$displaylines{ -Big[gBig(int_Omega|abla u|^pdxBig)Big]Delta_pu =lambda f(x,u)+|u|^{p^star-2}uquadext{in }Omega,cr u=0quadext{on ...

The multiconfiguration methods in quantum chemistry: Palais–Smale condition and existence of minimizers

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Mathématique, 2002
In this Note, we propose a new proof for the existence of a minimum in the multiconfiguration methods in Quantum Chemistry. We use a Palais–Smale condition with Morse-type information, whose proof is based on the Euler–Lagrange equations, written in a simple and useful way.

A deformation theorem in the noncompact nonsmooth setting and its applications

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2001
We build a deformation for a continuous functional defined on a Banach space and invariant with respect to an isometric action of a noncompact group. Under these assumptions the Palais-Smale condition does not hold.

Existence and uniqueness of a positive solution for a non homogeneous problem of fourth order with weights

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2006
In this work we study the existence of a positive solutions to the non homogeneous equation $$ Delta( |Delta u|^{p-2} Delta u) = m |u|^{q-2}u $$ with Navier boundary conditions, where $1 less than ,q less than p_2^*$ and $min L^infty(Omega)setminus {0}$,
