On the positive solutions for some diffusive logistic equations

In this paper, we study the positive solutions of the diffusive logistic equations. It is shown that the asymptotic profiles of the positive solutions display differences between nonlocal dispersal equation and semilinear elliptic equation. When the degeneracy domain becomes small, we find that the positive solution of semilinear elliptic equation admits a blow-up profile. However, when the non-degeneracy domain becomes large, the positive solution of nonlocal equation exhibits a blow-up profile.

Liouville theorem of the regional fractional Lane–Emden equations

The purpose of this paper is to study the Liouville property for the Lane–Emden equation involving the regional fractional Laplacian ( − Δ ) Ω s u + Vu = h 1 u p + h 2 in Ω , u = 0 on ∂Ω , where s ∈ ( 0 , 1 ) , p>0, h 1 , h 2 are nonnegative functions and Ω ⊂ R N − 1 × [ 0 , + ∞ ) with N ≥ 2 , is an unbounded domain satisfying Ω t := { x ′ ∈ R N − 1 : ( x ′ , t ) ∈ Ω } with t ≥ 0 having an increasing monotonicity, that is, Ω t ⊂ Ω t ′ for t ′ ≥ t . The potential V ( x ′ , t ) decays as t → + ∞ . The properties of the limit domain Ω ∞ := lim t → ∞ Ω t in R N − 1 play an important role to obtain the nonexistence of positive solutions for semilinear elliptic equations with the regional fractional Laplacian. For s ∈ ( 0 , 1 2 ] , we provide a surprising nonexistence result if Ω ∞ is bounded. This particular phenomenon occurs because of the peculiar properties of the regional fractional Laplacian with the order s ∈ ( 0 , 1 2 ] .

Existence and Multiplicity of Nontrivial Solutions for Semilinear Elliptic Equations Involving Hardy–Sobolev Critical Exponents

A class of semi-linear elliptic equations with the critical Hardy–Sobolev exponent has been considered. This model is widely used in hydrodynamics and glaciology, gas combustion in thermodynamics, quantum field theory, and statistical mechanics, as well as in gravity balance problems in galaxies. The PSc sequence of energy functional was investigated, and then the mountain pass lemma was used to prove the existence of at least one nontrivial solution. Also a multiplicity result was obtained. Some known results were generalized.

Singular solutions of semilinear elliptic equations with supercritical growth on Riemannian manifolds

In this paper, we shall discuss singular solutions of semilinear elliptic equations with general supercritical growth on spherically symmetric Riemannian manifolds. More precisely, we shall prove the existence, uniqueness and asymptotic behavior of the singular radial solution, and also show that regular radial solutions converges to the singular solution. In particular, we shall provide these properties on spherically symmetric Riemannian manifolds including the hyperbolic space as well as the sphere.

Reaction-diffusion fronts in funnel-shaped domains

We consider bistable reaction-diffusion equations in funnel-shaped domains of RN made up of straight parts and conical parts with positive opening angles. We study the large time dynamics of entire solutions emanating from a planar front in the straight part of such a domain and moving into the conical part. We show a dichotomy between blocking and spreading, by proving especially some new Liouville type results on stable solutions of semilinear elliptic equations in the whole space RN. We also show that any spreading solution is a transition front having a global mean speed, which is the unique speed of planar fronts, and that it converges at large time in the conical part of the domain to a well-formed front whose position is approximated by expanding spheres. Moreover, we provide sufficient conditions on the size R of the straight part of the domain and on the opening angle α of the conical part, under which the solution emanating from a planar front is blocked or spreads completely in the conical part. We finally show the openness of the set of parameters (R,α) for which the propagation is complete.

Singular solutions for semilinear elliptic equations with general supercritical growth

A positive radial singular solution for Delta u+f(u)=0 with a general supercritical growth is constructed. An exact asymptotic expansion as well as its uniqueness in the space of radial functions are also established. These results can be applied to the bifurcation problem Delta u+lambda f(u)=0 on a ball. Our method can treat a wide class of nonlinearities in a unified way, e.g., u^plog u, exp (u^p) and exp (cdots exp (u)cdots ) as well as u^p and e^u. Main technical tools are intrinsic transformations for semilinear elliptic equations and ODE techniques.

Monotonicity of solutions for fractional p-equations with a gradient term

Abstract In this paper, we consider the following fractional p p -equation with a gradient term: ( − Δ ) p s u ( x ) = f ( x , u ( x ) , ∇ u ( x ) ) . {\left(-\Delta )}_{p}^{s}u\left(x)=f\left(x,u\left(x),\nabla u\left(x)). We first prove the uniqueness and monotonicity of positive solutions in a bounded domain. Then by estimating the singular integrals which define the fractional p p -laplacian along a sequence of approximate maximum points, we obtain monotonicity of positive solutions in the whole space via the sliding method. In order to solve the difficulties caused by the gradient term, we introduce some new techniques which may also be applied to investigate the qualitative properties of solutions for many problems with gradient terms. Our results are extensions of Berestycki and Nirenberg [Monotonicity, symmetry and antisymmetry of solutions of semilinear elliptic equations, J. Geom. Phys. 5 (1988), 237–275] and Wu and Chen [The sliding methods for the fractional p-Laplacian, Adv. Math. 361 (2020), 106933].

Gradient estimates for bounded solutions of semilinear elliptic equations and the Allen-Cahn equation on manifolds

This paper aims at deriving apriori bounds on the gradient of positve solutions to a class of semilinear elliptic equation, with applications focusing on establishing a liouville type property for the bounded solutions of the Allen-Cahn equation on a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature.

Nodal solutions of semi-linear elliptic equations with dependence on the gradient

In the present paper we prove the existence of a nontrivial nodal solution of a semi-linear elliptic equation depending on the gradient. Our approach makes use of the theory of invariant sets of descending flow to localize the solution.

The domain derivative for semilinear elliptic inverse obstacle problems

&lt;p style='text-indent:20px;'&gt;We consider the recovering of the shape of a cavity from the Cauchy datum on an accessible boundary in case of semilinear boundary value problems. Existence and a characterization of the domain derivative of solutions of semilinear elliptic equations are proven. Furthermore, the result is applied to solve an inverse obstacle problem with an iterative regularization scheme. By some numerical examples its performance in case of a Kerr type nonlinearity is illustrated.&lt;/p&gt;

Maximal and minimal weak solutions for elliptic problems with nonlinearity on the boundary

&lt;abstract&gt;&lt;p&gt;This paper deals with the existence of weak solutions for semilinear elliptic equation with nonlinearity on the boundary. We establish the existence of a maximal and a minimal weak solution between an ordered pair of sub- and supersolution for both monotone and nonmonotone nonlinearities. We use iteration argument when the nonlinearity is monotone. For the nonmonotone case, we utilize the surjectivity of a pseudomonotone and coercive operator, Zorn's lemma and a version of Kato's inequality.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/abstract&gt;

Sign-changing solutions for semilinear elliptic equation with variable exponent

This paper is devoted to study a class of semilinear elliptic equation with variable exponent. By means of perturbation technique, the method of invariant sets for the descending flow and necessary estimates, the existence of infinitely many sign-changing solutions to this problem is obtained.

Symmetry properties of stable solutions of semilinear elliptic equations in unbounded domains

We consider stable solutions of a semilinear elliptic equation with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. A classical result of Casten, Holland and Matano states that all stable solutions are constant in convex bounded domains. In this paper, we examine whether this result extends to unbounded convex domains. We give a positive answer for stable non-degenerate solutions, and for stable solutions if the domain \(\Omega \) further satisfies \(\Omega \cap \{\vert x\vert \le R\}= O(R^2)\), when \(R\rightarrow +\infty \). If the domain is a straight cylinder, an additional natural assumption is needed. These results can be seen as an extension to more general domains of some results on De Giorgi’s conjecture. As an application, we establish asymptotic symmetries for stable solutions when the domain satisfies a geometric property asymptotically.

Some open questions in this direction are also discussed.&lt;/p&gt;
