The main purpose of this article is to reconstruct the nonnegative coefficient $a$ in the double phase problem $\mathrm{div}\,(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u+a|\nabla u|^{q-2}\nabla u)=0$ in a domain $\Omega$, $u=f$ on $\partial\Omega$, from the…
We discuss the asymptotic behavior of positive solutions of the quasilinear elliptic problem $-\Delta_p u=a u^{p-1}-b(x) u^q$, $u|_{\partial \Omega}=0$ as $q \to p-1+0$ and as $q \to \infty$ via a scale argument. Here $\Delta_p$ is the…
We study elliptic gradient systems with fractional laplacian operators on the whole space $$ (- \Delta)^\mathbf s \mathbf u =\nabla H (\mathbf u) \ \ \text{in}\ \ \mathbf{R}^n,$$ where $\mathbf u:\mathbf{R}^n\to \mathbf{R}^m$, $H\in…
We construct positive singular solutions for the problem $-\Delta u=\lambda \exp (e^u)$ in $B_1\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ ($n\geq 3$), $u=0$ on $\partial B_1$, having a prescribed behaviour around the origin. Our study extends the one in Y.…
In the present paper we consider the system {\Delta}u - W_u (u) = 0, where u: R^n to R^n, for a class of potentials W: R^n to R that possess several global minima and are invariant under a general finite reflection group G. We establish…

In this paper we establish $W^{1,p}$ estimates for solutions $u_\varepsilon$ to Laplace's equation with the Dirichlet condition in a bounded and perforated, not necessarily periodically, $C^1$ domain $\Omega_{\varepsilon, \eta}$ in…
In this paper, we consider the regularity of weak solutions (in an appropriate space) to the elliptic partial differential equation \begin{equation*} (-\Delta_{p})^{s} u + (-\Delta_{q})^{s} u = f(x) \quad \text{in} \quad \mathbb{R}^{N},…
In two dimensions every weak solution to a nonlinear elliptic system $\rm{div} a(x,u,Du)=0$ has H\"older continuous first derivatives provided that standard continuity, ellipticity and growth assumptions hold with a growth exponent $p \geq…
Suppose that ${\cal L}$ is a divergence form differential operator of the form ${\cal L}f:=(1/2) e^{U}\nabla_x\cdot\big[e^{-U}(I+H)\nabla_x f\big]$, where $U$ is scalar valued, $I$ identity matrix and $H$ an anti-symmetric matrix valued…
Let $D$ be a smooth domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$, $N\geq 3$ and let $f$ be a positive continuous function on $\partial D$. Under some assumptions on $\varphi$, it is shown that the problem $\Delta u=2\varphi(u)$ in $D$ and $u=f$ on $\partial…

The $p$-Laplacian operator $\Delta_pu={\rm div }\left(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u\right)$ is not uniformly elliptic for any $p\in(1,2)\cup(2,\infty)$ and degenerates even more when $p\to \infty$ or $p\to 1$. In those two cases the Dirichlet…
