We consider the index problem for a wide class of nonlocal elliptic operators on a smooth closed manifold, namely differential operators with shifts induced by the action of an isometric diffeomorphism. The key to the solution is the method…

We use the Maslov index to study the eigenvalue problem arising from the linearisation about solitons in the fourth-order cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLSE). Our analysis is motivated by recent work by Bandara et al., in which…

In this study, we address the eigenvalue problem given by: \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -\Div (w\nabla u_i)=\la_iu_i &\text{in } \Om\subset \mathbb{R}^n,\\ u_i=0 &\text{on } \pt \Om, \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $w > 0$ within $\Om$…

We study the boundary regularity of solutions to divergence form operators which are small perturbations of operators for which the boundary regularity of solutions is known. An operator is a small perturbation of another operator if the…

We consider second-order uniformly elliptic operators subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions. Such operators are considered on a bounded domain $\Omega$ and on the domain $\phi(\Omega)$ resulting from $\Omega$ by means of a bi-Lipschitz…

The solvability in Sobolev spaces is proved for divergence form second order elliptic equations in the whole space, a half space, and a bounded Lipschitz domain. For equations in the whole space or a half space, the leading coefficients…

In this paper, we explicitly express the local Maslov index by a Maslov index in finite dimensional case without symplectic reduction. Then we calculate the Maslov index for the path of pairs of Lagrangian subspaces in triangular form. In…

We prove a Morse index theorem for action functionals on paths that are allowed to reflect at a hypersurface (either in the interior or at the boundary of a manifold). Both fixed and periodic boundary conditions are treated.

In this work, we provide an estimate of the Morse index of radially symmetric sign changing bounded weak solutions $u$ to the semilinear fractional Dirichlet problem $$ (-\Delta)^su = f(u)\qquad \text{ in $\mathcal{B}$},\qquad \qquad u =…

This paper is concerned with spectral estimates for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the degenerate $p$-Laplace operator in bounded simply connected domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb C$. The proposed approach relies on the conformal analysis…
