In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of solutions of fractional differential equations of the form $D^{\alpha}_Cu(t)=Au(t)+f(t)$ on the half line, where $D^{\alpha}_Cu(t)$ is the derivative of the function $u$ in Caputo's sense,…
We derive a new criterion for a real-valued function $u$ to be in the Sobolev space $W^{1,2}(\R^n)$. This criterion consists of comparing the value of a functional $\int f(u)$ with the values of the same functional applied to convolutions…
We investigate the equation $(u_t + (f(u))_x)_x = f''(u) (u_x)^2/2$ where $f(u)$ is a given smooth function. Typically $f(u)= u^2/2$ or $u^3/3$. This equation models unidirectional and weakly nonlinear waves for the variational wave…
In this article, we study a one-dimensional nonlocal quasilinear problem of the form $u_t=a(\Vert u_x\Vert^2)u_{xx}+\nu f(u)$, with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the interval $[0,\pi]$, where $0<m\leq a(s)\leq M$ for all $s\in…
We analyze the asymptotic behavior of a $2$-dimensional integral current which is almost minimizing in a suitable sense at a singular point. Our analysis is the second half of an argument which shows the discreteness of the singular set for…
We consider the Neumann problem for the equation $u_{xx}+\lambda f(u)=0$ in the punctured interval $(-1,1) \setminus \{0\}$, where $\lambda>0$ is a bifurcation parameter and $f(u)=u-u^3$. At $x=0$, we impose the conditions…
The subject of this work are random Schroedinger operators on regular rooted tree graphs $\T$ with stochastically homogeneous disorder. The operators are of the form $H_\lambda(\omega) = T + U + \lambda V(\omega)$ acting in $\ell^2(\T)$,…
On a compact manifold $M^{n}$ ($n\geq 3$) with boundary, we study the asymptotic behavior as $\epsilon$ tends to zero of solutions $u_{\epsilon}: M \to \mathbb{C}$ to the equation $\Delta u_{\epsilon} + \epsilon^{-2}(1 -…

Let $f(n)$ be an arithmetic function with $f(1)\neq0$ and let $f^{-1}(n)$ be its reciprocal with respect to the Dirichlet convolution. We study the asymptotic behaviour of $|f^{-1}(n)|$ with regard to the asymptotic behaviour of $|f(n)|$…
The key point to prove the optimal $C^{1,\frac12}$ regularity of the thin obstacle problem is that the frequency at a point of the free boundary $x_0\in\Gamma(u)$, say $N^{x_0}(0^+,u)$, satisfies the lower bound $N^{x_0}(0^+,u)\ge\frac32$.…
In the paper we consider elliptic equations of the form $-Au=u^{-\gamma}\cdot\mu$, where $A$ is the operator associated with a regular symmetric Dirichlet form, $\mu$ is a positive nontrivial measure and $\gamma>0$. We prove the existence…
