In this paper we prove existence of (viscosity) solutions of Dirichlet problems concerning fully nonlinear elliptic operator, which are either degenerate or singular when the gradient of the solution is zero. For this class of operators it…
Eigenanalysis of differential operators, such as the Laplace operator or elastic energy Hessian, is typically restricted to a single shape and its discretization, limiting reduced order modeling (ROM). We introduce the first eigenanalysis…

The paper concerns the isotropic interior transmission eigenvalue (ITE) problem. This problem is not elliptic, but we show that, using the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map, it can be reduced to an elliptic one. This leads to the discreteness of the…
