Thanks to a change of unknown we compare two elliptic quasilinear problems with Dirichlet data in a bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^{N}.$ The first one, of the form $-\Delta_{p}u=\beta(u)| \nabla u| ^{p}+\lambda f(x),$ where $\beta$ is…
This paper deals with the equation $-\Delta u+\mu u=f$ on high-dimensional spaces $\mathbb{R}^m$ where $\mu$ is a positive constant. If the right-hand side $f$ is a rapidly converging series of separable functions, the solution $u$ can be…

{Let $N, k$ be positive integers with $k\geq 2$, and $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{N}$ be a domain.} By the well-known properties of the Laplacian and the gradient, we have \[ \Delta(f\cdot g)(x)=g(x) \Delta f(x)+f(x) \Delta g(x)+2\langle…
We consider theories for scalar and vector fields coupled to the energy-momentum tensor. Since these fields also carry a non-trivial energy-momentum tensor, the coupling prescription generates self-interactions. In analogy with gravity…
Scalar fields in 4D are known to have equivalent dual descriptions in terms of form-field gauge potentials, but this is often regarded as an arcane fact. Why use more complicated formulations when simpler scalar descriptions exist and are…
