We study the Schr\"odinger equations $-\Delta u + V(x)u = f(x,u)$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$ and $-\Delta u - \lambda u = f(x,u)$ in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$. We assume that $f$ is superlinear but of subcritical growth and…

We prove that there exists a one-parameter meromorphic solution $u(\tau)$ vanishing at $\tau=0$ of the degenerate third Painlev\'e equation, \begin{equation*} u^{\prime \prime}(\tau) \! = \! \frac{(u^{\prime}(\tau))^{2}}{u(\tau)} \! - \!…
The author discusses particular solutions of a second order equation designated by source equation. This equation is special because the metric of the space where it is written is influenced by the solution, rendering the equation…
We derive a priori bounds for positive supersolutions of $ - \Delta_{p} u = \rho(x) f(u) $, where $p>1$ and $\Delta_{p}$ is the $p$-Laplace operator, in a smooth bounded domain of $R^{N}$ with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. We apply…

We consider the solution of the torsion problem $-\Delta u=1$ in $\Omega$ and $u=0$ on $\partial \Omega$. Serrin's celebrated symmetry theorem states that, if the normal derivative $u_\nu$ is constant on $\partial \Omega$, then $\Omega$…
Let $(u_n)_{n \geq 0}$ be a non-degenerate Lucas sequence, given by the relation $u_n=a_1 u_{n-1}+a_2 u_{n-2}$. Let $\ell_u(m)=lcm(m, z_u(m))$, for $(m,a_2)=1$, where $z_u(m)$ is the rank of appearance of $m$ in $u_n$. We prove that…

About thirty years ago we looked for "minimal assumptions" on the data which guarantee that solutions to the $\,2-D\,$ evolution Euler equations in a bounded domain are classical. Classical means here that all the derivatives appearing in…
In this paper we prove the existence of a positive solution to the equation $-\Delta u + V(x)u=g(u)$ in $R^N,$ assuming the general hypotheses on the nonlinearity introduced by Berestycki & Lions. Moreover we show that a minimizing problem,…
