This paper considers the inverse boundary value problem for the equation $\nabla\cdot(\sigma\nabla u+a|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u)=0$. We give a procedure for the recovery of the coefficients $\sigma$ and $a$ from the corresponding…
We answer the question of when an invariant pseudodifferential operator is Fredholm on a fixed, given isotypical component. More precisely, let $\Gamma$ be a compact group acting on a smooth, compact, manifold $M$ without boundary and let…

The $k$-Hessian operator $\sigma_k$ is the $k$-th elementary symmetric function of the eigenvalues of the Hessian. It is known that the $k$-Hessian equation $\sigma_k(D^2u)=f$ with Dirichlet boundary condition $u=0$ is variational; indeed,…
The aim of this paper is twofold: First, we characterize an essentially optimal class of boundary operators $\Theta$ which give rise to self-adjoint Laplacians $-\Delta_{\Theta, \Omega}$ in $L^2(\Omega; d^n x)$ with (nonlocal and local)…
We consider the eigenvalue problem for the fractional $p \& q-$Laplacian \begin{equation} \left\{\begin{aligned} (- \Delta)_p^{s}\, u + \mu(- \Delta)_q^{s}\, u+ |u|^{p-2}u+\mu|u|^{q-2}u=\lambda\ V(x)|u|^{p-2}u\quad & \text{in } \Omega\\…

We consider a Schr\"odinger operator $(h\mathbf D -\mathbf A)^2$ with a positive magnetic field $B=\curl\mathbf A$ in a domain $\Omega\subset\R^2$. The imposing of Neumann boundary conditions leads to spectrum below $h\inf B$. This is a…
