We present an unconditional proof that non-trivial zeros of the Riemann Zeta function must lie strictly on the critical line $\text{Re}(s) = 0.5$. By defining a recursive path of Taylor expansions originating from the domain of absolute…

We show that there are an infinite number of Riemann zeros on the critical line, enumerated by the positive integers $n=1,2,\dotsc$, whose ordinates can be obtained as the solution of a new transcendental equation that depends only on $n$.…

It is widely believed that the energy functional $E_p:(\mathbb{S}^2)^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ $$ E_p = \sum_{i,j=1 \atop i \neq j}^{n} \frac{1}{\|x_i-x_j\|^p}$$ has a number of critical points, $\nabla E(x) = 0$, that grows exponentially…

We prove that quasi-concave positive solutions to a class of quasi-linear elliptic equations driven by the $p$-Laplacian in convex bounded domains of the plane have only one critical point. As a consequence, we obtain strict concavity…

In this note a critical point result for differentiable functionals is exploited in order to prove that a suitable class of one-dimensional fractional problems admits at least one non-trivial solution under an asymptotical behaviour of the…

We establish an abstract critical point theorem for locally Lipschitz functionals that does not require any compactness condition of Palais-Smale type. It generalizes and unifies three other critical point theorems established in…

We establish the existence of an entire solution for a class of stationary Schr\"{o}dinger systems with subcritical discontinuous nonlinearities and lower bounded potentials that blow-up at infinity. The proof is based on the critical point…

In this paper, we study the number of critical points of the Kirchhoff-Routh function \begin{equation*} \mathcal{KR}_D(x,y)=\Lambda_1^2\mathcal{R}_D(x)+\Lambda_2^2\mathcal{R}_D(y)-2\Lambda_1\Lambda_2G_D(x,y), \end{equation*} where $D$ is a…

In this paper we develop a new theory for the existence, localization and multiplicity of positive solutions for a class of non-variational,quasilinear, elliptic systems. In order to do this, we provide a fairly general abstract framework…

We establish the well-posedness of linear elliptic equations with critical-order drifts in $L^d$ and positive zero-order coefficients in $L^1$ or $L^{\frac{2d}{d+2}}$, where classical methods are often too restrictive. Our approach relies…

The present article investigates the existence, multiplicity and regularity of weak solutions of problems involving a combination of critical Hartree type nonlinearity along with singular and discontinuous nonlinearity. By applying…

This paper is concerned with existence and qualitative properties of positive solutions of semilinear elliptic equations in bounded domains with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We show the existence of positive solutions in the vicinity of…

In this paper a fourth order equation involving critical growth is considered under Navier boundary condition. We give some topological conditions on a given function to ensure the existence of solutions. Our methods involve the study of…

We prove an existence result for a $p$-Laplacian problem set in the whole Euclidean space and exhibiting a critical term perturbed by a singular, convective reaction. The approach used combines variational methods, truncation techniques,…

Recently (arXiv:0910.2870), we have derived a fluctuation theorem for systems in thermodynamic equilibrium compatible with anomalous response functions, e.g. the existence of states with \textit{negative heat capacities} $C<0$. In this…

We prove the following version of the Kreps-Yan theorem. For any norm closed convex cone $C\subset L^\infty$ such that $C\cap L_+^\infty=\{0\}$ and $C\supset -L_+^\infty$, there exists a strictly positive continuous linear functional, whose…

To characterize the asymptotic behavior of fixed-point iterations of non-expansive operators with no fixed points, Bauschke et al. [Fixed Point Theory Appl. (2016)] recently studied cosmic convergence and conjectured that cosmic convergence…

In this note, we give a proof of the famous theorem of M. Morse dealing with the cancellation of a pair of non-degenerate critical points of a smooth function. Our proof consists of a reduction to the one-dimensional case where the question…

The existence of at least three weak solutions for a kind of nonlinear time-dependent equation is studied. In fact, we consider the case that the source function has singularity at origin. To this aim, the variational methods and the…
