Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ be a bounded domain of class $C^{2+\alpha}$, $0<\alpha<1$. We show that if $n\geq 3$ and $u_\Omega$ is the maximal solution of equation $\Delta u = n(n-2)u^{(n+2)/(n-2)}$ in $\Omega$, then the hyperbolic…
If on a smooth bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ there is a nonconstant Neumann eigenfunction $u$ that is locally constant on the boundary, must $\Omega$ be a disk or an annulus? This question can be understood as a weaker analog…
