We use maximum principle to prove the Liouville theorem of the equation $\Delta U + b\cdot \nabla U + h U^{\alpha} = 0, U \geq 0, 0 < \alpha < \frac{n + 2}{n - 2}$ on the complete Riemannian manifold with non-negative Ricci tensor, which…
A projectability result is proved for surfaces of prescribed mean curvature (shortly called $H$-surfaces) spanned in a partially free boundary configuration. Hereby, the $H$-surface is allowed to meet the support surface along its free…
Many classical ring-theoretic results state that an ideal that is maximal with respect to satisfying a special property must be prime. We present a "Prime Ideal Principle" that gives a uniform method of proving such facts, generalizing the…
A mesh condition is developed for linear finite element approximations of anisotropic diffusion-convection-reaction problems to satisfy a discrete maximum principle. Loosely speaking, the condition requires that the mesh be simplicial and…
In this paper, we prove new Liouville type results for a nonlinear equation involving infinity Laplacian with gradient of the form $$\Delta^\gamma_\infty u + q(x)\cdot \nabla{u} |\nabla{u}|^{2-\gamma} + f(x, u)\,=\,0\quad \text{in}\;…
A classical theorem due to G.D. Birkhoff states that there exists an entire function whose translates approximate any given entire function, as accurately as desired, over any ball of the complex plane. We show this result may be…
This article develops a new primal dual formulation for the Kirchhoff-Love non-linear plate model. At first we establish a duality principle which includes sufficient conditions of global optimality through the dual formulation. At this…
We introduce a concept of approximately invertible elements in non-unital normed algebras which is, on one side, a natural generalization of invertibility when having approximate identities at hand, and, on the other side, it is a direct…
The set of quasipositive surfaces is closed under incompressible inclusion. We prove that the induced order on fibre surfaces of positive braid links is almost a well-quasi-order. When restricting to quasipositive surfaces containing a…
The paper contains a general construction which produces new examples of non simply-connected smooth projective surfaces. We analyze the resulting surfaces and their fundamental groups. Many of these fundamental groups are expected to be…
We will prove a global estimate for the gradient of the solution to the {\it Poisson differential inequality} $|\Delta u(x)|\le a|\nabla u(x)|^2+b$, $x\in B^{n}$, where $a,b<\infty$ and $u|_{S^{n-1}}\in C^{1,\alpha}(S^{n-1}, \Bbb R^m)$. If…
We show that the module of integral points on a Drinfeld module satisfies a an analogue of Dirichlet's unit theorem, despite its failure to be finitely generated. As a consequence, we obtain a construction of a canonical finitely generated…
We consider the $2m$-th order elliptic boundary value problem $Lu=f(x,u)$ on a bounded smooth domain $\Omega$ in $R^N$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The operator $L$ is a uniformly elliptic operator of order $2m$. We assume that for…
This paper contains selected applications of the new tangential extremal principles and related results developed in Part I to calculus rules for infinite intersections of sets and optimality conditions for problems of semi-infinite…
Let L be a finite extension of Q_p and d a positive integer. A conjecture, due to C. Breuil and P. Schneider, says that the existence of invariant norms on certain locally algebraic representations of GL_{d+1}(L) should be equivalent to the…
In a recent paper (see [7]), a quasi-nonlocal coupling method was introduced to seamlessly bridge a nonlocal diffusion model with the classical local diffusion counterpart in a one-dimensional space. The proposed coupling framework removes…
We prove that in either the convergent or overconvergent setting, an absolutely irreducible $F$-isocrystal on the absolute product of two or more smooth schemes over perfect fields of characteristic $p$, further equipped with actions of the…
We prove, under some mild hypothesis, that an \'etale cover of curves defined over a number field has infinitely many specializations into an everywhere unramified extension of number fields. This constitutes an "absolute" version of the…

Consider the projection of a smooth irreducible surface in $\mathbb{P}^3$ from a point. The uniform position principle implies that the monodromy group of such a projection from a general point in $\mathbb{P}^3$ is the whole symmetric…
