Quasilinear Equations in Orlicz–Sobolev Spaces Involving Critical Exponential Growth with Unbounded and Decaying Radial Potentials

Approximation of $$L^\infty $$ functionals with generalized Orlicz norms

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to deal with the asymptotics of generalized Orlicz norms when the lower growth rate tends to infinity. We generalize results proven by Bertazzoni, Harjulehto and Hästö in Journ. of Math. Anal. and Appl. (2024) for integral type energies (in generalized Orlicz spaces), considering milder convexity assumptions. $$\Gamma $$ Γ -convergence results and related representation theorems in terms of $$L^\infty $$ L ∞ functionals are proven. The convexity hypotheses are completely removed in the variable exponent setting, thus extending the results in Eleuteri-Prinari in Nonlinear Anal. Real. World Appl. (2021) and Prinari-Zappale in JOTA (2020).

Monotonicities of Quasi-Normed Orlicz Spaces

In this paper, we introduce a new Orlicz function, namely a b-Orlicz function, which is not necessarily convex. The Orlicz spaces LΦ generated by the b-Orlicz function Φ equipped with a Luxemburg quasi-norm contain both classical spaces Lp(p≥1) and Lp(0<p<1). The Orlicz spaces LΦ are quasi-Banach spaces. Some basic properties in quasi-normed Orlicz spaces are discussed, and the criteria that a quasi-normed Orlicz space is strictly monotonic and lower (upper) locally uniformly monotonic are given.

Max-Product Sampling Kantorovich Operators: Quantitative Estimates in Functional Spaces

In this paper, we study the order of approximation for max-product sampling Kantorovich operators based upon generalized kernels in the setting of Orlicz spaces. We establish a quantitative estimate for the considered family of sampling-type operators using the Orlicz-type modulus of smoothness, which involves the modular functional of the space. From this result, it is possible to obtain the qualitative order of convergence when functions belonging to suitable Lipschitz classes are considered. On the other hand, in the compact case, we exploit a suitable definition of K-functional in Orlicz spaces in order to provide an upper bound for the approximation error of the involved operators. The treatment in the general framework of Orlicz spaces allows one to obtain a unifying theory on the rate of convergence, as the proved results can be deduced for a wide range of functional spaces, such as L p -spaces, interpolation spaces and exponential spaces.

Existence of positive solution for a class of quasilinear Schrödinger equations with potential vanishing at infinity on nonreflexive Orlicz-Sobolev spaces

In this paper we investigate the existence of positive solution for a class of quasilinear problem on an Orlicz-Sobolev space that can be nonreflexive $$ - \Delta_{\Phi} u +V(x)\phi(|u|)u= K(x)f(u)\quad\mbox{in } \mathbb{R}^{N}, $$ where $ N \geq 2 $, $ V, K $ are nonnegative continuous functions and $f$ is a continuous function with a quasicritical growth. Here we extend the Hardy-type inequalities presented in \cite{AlvesandMarco} to nonreflexive Orlicz spaces. Through inequalities together with a variational method for non-differentiable functionals we will obtain a ground state solution. We analyze also the problem with $V=0$.

On a nonlinear general eigenvalue problem in Musielak–Orlicz spaces

Abstract In this paper, we concern the existence result of the following general eigenvalue problem: { 𝒜 ⁢ ( u ) = λ ⁢ ℬ ⁢ ( u ) in ⁢ Ω , D α ⁢ ( u ) = 0 on ⁢ ∂ ⁡ Ω , \left\{\begin{aligned} \displaystyle{}\mathcal{A}(u)&\displaystyle={\lambda}% \mathcal{B}(u)&&\displaystyle\phantom{}\text{in }{\Omega},\\ \displaystyle D^{\alpha}(u)&\displaystyle=0&&\displaystyle\phantom{}\text{on }% {\partial\Omega},\end{aligned}\right. in an arbitrary Musielak–Orlicz spaces, where 𝒜 {\mathcal{A}} and ℬ {\mathcal{B}} are quasilinear operators in divergence form of order 2 ⁢ n {2n} and 2 ⁢ ( n - 1 ) {2(n-1)} , respectively. The main assumptions in this case are that 𝒜 {\mathcal{A}} and ℬ {\mathcal{B}} are potential operators with 𝒜 {\mathcal{A}} being elliptic and monotone. In this study, we intentionally avoid imposing constraints on the growth of a generalized N-function, including the Δ 2 {\Delta_{2}} -condition for both the generalized N-function and its conjugate. Consequently, this necessitates the formulation of the approximation theorem and the extensive utilization of modular convergence concepts.

Monotonicities of quasi‐normed Calderón–Lozanovskiĭ spaces with applications to approximation problems

AbstractWe consider the geometric structure of quasi‐normed Calderón–Lozanovskiĭ spaces. First, we study relations between the quasi‐norm and the quasi‐modular “near zero” and “near one,” which are fundamental for the theory. With their help, we provide a precise description of the basic monotonicity properties. In comparison with the well‐known normed case, we develop a number of new techniques and methods, among which the conditions and play a crucial role. From our general results, we conclude the criteria for monotonicity properties in quasi‐normed Orlicz spaces, which are new even in this particular context. We consider both the function and the sequence case as well as we admit degenerated Orlicz functions, which provides us with a maximal class of spaces under consideration. We also discuss the applications of suitable properties to the best dominated approximation problems in quasi‐Banach lattices.

On the modulus of continuity of fractional Orlicz-Sobolev functions

AbstractNecessary and sufficient conditions are presented for a fractional Orlicz-Sobolev space on $${\mathbb {R}}^n$$ R n to be continuously embedded into a space of uniformly continuous functions. The optimal modulus of continuity is exhibited whenever these conditions are fulfilled. These results pertain to the supercritical Sobolev regime and complement earlier sharp embeddings into rearrangement-invariant spaces concerning the subcritical setting. Classical embeddings for fractional Sobolev spaces into Hölder spaces are recovered as special instances. Proofs require novel strategies, since customary methods fail to produce optimal conclusions.

Bifurcation for indefinite‐weighted p$p$‐Laplacian problems with slightly subcritical nonlinearity

AbstractWe study a superlinear elliptic boundary value problem involving the ‐Laplacian operator, with changing sign weights. The problem has positive solutions bifurcating from the trivial solution set at the two principal eigenvalues of the corresponding linear weighted boundary value problem.Drabek's bifurcation result applies when the nonlinearity is of power growth. We extend Drabek's bifurcation result to slightly subcritical nonlinearities. Compactness in this setting is a delicate issue obtained via Orlicz spaces.

The concentration–compactness principle for Orlicz spaces and applications

AbstractIn this paper, we extend the well‐known concentration–compactness principle of P.L. Lions to Orlicz spaces. As an application, we show an existence result to some critical elliptic problem with nonstandard growth.

Noncommutative Multi-Parameter Subsequential Wiener–Wintner-Type Ergodic Theorem

This paper is devoted to the study of a multi-parameter subsequential version of the “Wiener–Wintner” ergodic theorem for the noncommutative Dunford–Schwartz system. We establish a structure to prove “Wiener–Wintner”-type convergence over a multi-parameter subsequence class Δ instead of the weight class case. In our subsequence class, every term of k̲∈Δ is one of the three kinds of nonzero density subsequences we consider. As key ingredients, we give the maximal ergodic inequalities of multi-parameter subsequential averages and obtain a noncommutative subsequential analogue of the Banach principle. Then, by combining the critical result of the uniform convergence for a dense subset of the noncommutative Lp(M) space and the noncommutative Orlicz space, we immediately obtain the main theorem.

Orlicz Amalgam Spaces on the Affine Group

Let A be the affine group, Φ1, Φ2 be Young functions. We study the Orlicz amalgam spaces W (LΦ1 (A), LΦ2 (A)) defined on A, where the local and global component spaces are the Orlicz spaces LΦ1 (A) and LΦ2 (A), respectively. We obtain an equivalent discrete norm on the amalgam space W (LΦ1 (A), LΦ2 (A)) using the constructions related to the affine group. Using the discrete norm we compute the dual space of W (LΦ1 (A), LΦ2 (A)). We also prove that the Orlicz amalgam space is a left L1(A)-module with respect to convolution under certain conditions. Finally, we investigate some inclusion relations between the Orlicz amalgam spaces.

On the Sub and Supersolution Method for Nonlinear Elliptic Equations with a Convective Term, in Orlicz Spaces

In this note we provide an overview of some existence (with sign information) and regularity results for differential equations, in which the method of sub and supersolutions plays an important role. We list some classical results and then we focus on the Dirichlet problem, for problems driven by a general differential operator, depending on (x,u,∇u), and with a convective term f. Our framework is that of Orlicz–Sobolev spaces. We also present several examples.

Positive solution for a nonlinear elliptic equation on symmetric domains

We show the existence of a positive solution for the Schrodinger quasilinear equation with variable exponents above the critical regime. For that matter, we show an embedding into an Orlicz space of functions modeled over radially symmetric domains. Then we use a Galerkin method combined with a fixed-point argument to obtain a solution. For more information see https://ejde.math.txstate.edu/Volumes/2024/41/abstr.html

Continuous imbedding theorems in Musielak spaces

We provide continuous Sobolev-type imbedding results for Musielak spaces. In the first result the target space is a Musielak space bigger than the considered one, while the second is that of bounded and continuous functions. Continuous imbeddings into a particular Musielak space built upon Sobolev conjugate functions generate serious difficulties and does not holds in general for arbitrary Musielak functions, as it is well known in variable exponent Sobolev spaces. We overcome this problem by imposing only a regularity assumption on the Musielak functions without resorting to other restrictions such as the Δ2/∇2 conditions. Nevertheless, the continuous embedding in the space of bounded continuous functions is obtained by using the convex envelope, which then allows us to use a result already obtained in Orlicz spaces. The results we obtain extend and unify those obtained in classical Sobolev spaces, variable exponent Sobolev spaces as well as those obtained by Donaldson-Trudinger in the setting of Orlicz spaces.

Convergence of generalized Orlicz norms with lower growth rate tending to infinity

We study convergence of generalized Orlicz energies when the lower growth-rate tends to infinity. We generalize results by Bocea–Mihăilescu (Orlicz case) and Eleuteri–Prinari (variable exponent case) and allow weaker assumptions: we are also able to handle unbounded domains with irregular boundary and non-doubling energies.
