We provide a sufficient condition for the existence of a positive solution to $-\Delta u+V(|x|) u=u^p$ in $B_1$, when p is large enough. Here $B_1$ is the unit ball of $R^n$, n greater or equal to 2, and we deal both with Neumann and…

We prove that every $n$-vertex directed graph $G$ with the minimum outdegree $\delta^+(G) = d$ contains a subgraph $H$ satisfying \[ \min\left\{\delta^+(H), \delta^-(H) \right\} \ge \frac{d(d+1)}{2n} \,.\] We also show that if $d = o(n)$…

The classical Dirac theorem asserts that every graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with minimum degree $\delta(G) \ge \lceil n/2 \rceil$ is Hamiltonian. The lower bound of $\lceil n/2 \rceil$ on the minimum degree of a graph is tight. In this paper,…

We deal with Dirichlet problems of the form $$ \Delta u+f(u)=0 \mbox{ in }\Omega,\qquad u=0\ \mbox{ on }\partial \Omega $$ where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 3$, and $f$ has supercritical growth from the viewpoint…

We prove the following comparison theorem for metrics with nonnegative scalar curvature, also known as the dihedral rigidity conjecture by Gromov: for $n\le 7$, if an $n$-dimensional prism has nonnegative scalar curvature and weakly mean…

A resolving set for a graph $\Gamma$ is a collection of vertices $S$, chosen so that for each vertex $v$, the list of distances from $v$ to the members of $S$ uniquely specifies $v$. The metric dimension of $\Gamma$ is the smallest size of…

A straight-line drawing $\delta$ of a planar graph $G$ need not be plane, but can be made so by \emph{untangling} it, that is, by moving some of the vertices of $G$. Let shift$(G,\delta)$ denote the minimum number of vertices that need to…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$ ($N\geq 3$) be a bounded $C^2$ domain and $\Sigma\subset\partial\Omega$ be a compact $C^2$ submanifold of dimension $k$. Denote the distance from $\Sigma$ by $d_\Sigma$. In this paper, we study positive…

This work is devoted to the Dirichlet problem for the equation (-\Delta u = \lambda u + |x|^\alpha |u|^{2^*-2} u) in the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^N$. We assume that $\lambda$ is bigger than the first eigenvalues of the laplacian, and we…

This work studies the regularity and the geometric significance of solution of the Cauchy problem for a degenerate parabolic equation $u_{t}=\Delta{}u^{m}$. Our main objective is to improve the H$\ddot{o}$lder estimate obtained by pioneers…

Let $\Omega$ be a domain in $R^d$ and $d_\Gamma$ the Euclidean distance to the boundary $\Gamma$. We investigate whether the weighted Hardy inequality \[ \|d_\Gamma^{\delta/2-1}\varphi\|_2\leq…

We revisit the classical Unit Distance Problem posed by Erd\H{o}s in 1946. While the upper bound of $O(n^{4/3})$ established by Spencer, Szemer'edi, and Trotter (1984) is tight for systems of pseudo-circles, it fails to account for the…

We study the existence of radially symmetric solutions of the following nonlinear scalar field equations in ${\mathbb R}^N$ ($N\geq 2$): $$ (*)_m \left\{ \eqalign{ -&\Delta u = g(u) -\mu u \quad \hbox{in}\ {\mathbb R}^N, \cr &\|…

We prove that entire bounded monotone solutions to a certain class of fully nonlinear equations in 2D are one-dimensional. Our result also gives a new (non-variational) proof of the well known De Giorgi's conjecture.

Erd\H{o}s, Gallai, and Tuza posed the following problem: given an $n$-vertex graph $G$, let $\tau_1(G)$ denote the smallest size of a set of edges whose deletion makes $G$ triangle-free, and let $\alpha_1(G)$ denote the largest size of a…

In this work we study the existence of nodal solutions for the problem $$ -\Delta u = \lambda u e^{u^2+|u|^p} \text{ in }\Omega, \; u = 0 \text{ on }\partial \Omega, $$ where $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb R^2$ is a bounded smooth domain and…

In this paper, we consider the Brezis-Nirenberg problem $$ -\Delta u=\lambda u+|u|^{\frac{4}{N-2}}u,\quad\mbox{in}\,\, \Omega,\quad u=0,\quad\mbox{on}\,\, \partial\Omega, $$ where $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$, $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^N$ is a…

In 1962 P\'osa conjectured that every graph G on n vertices with minimum degree at least 2n/3 contains the square of a hamiltonian cycle. In 1996 Fan and Kierstead proved the path version of P\'osa's Conjecture. They also proved that it…

Giga and Kohn studied the blowup solutions for the equation $v_{t} - \Delta v - |v|^{p - 1} v = 0 $ and characterized the asymptotic behavior of $v$ near a singularity. In the proof, they reduced the problem to a Liouville theorem for the…
