In the first part we present a generalized implicit function theorem for abstract equations of the type $F(\lambda,u)=0$. We suppose that $u_0$ is a solution for $\lambda=0$ and that $F(\lambda,\cdot)$ is smooth for all $\lambda$, but,…

We present first results on the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator associated with the $1$-Laplace operator in $L^1$. In particular, we show that this operator can be realized as a sub-differential operator in $L^1\times L^{\infty}$ of a…
We derive a priori bounds for positive supersolutions of $ - \Delta_{p} u = \rho(x) f(u) $, where $p>1$ and $\Delta_{p}$ is the $p$-Laplace operator, in a smooth bounded domain of $R^{N}$ with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. We apply…

Let $f\in C^1(\mathbb{R})$. We study stable solutions $u$ of the mean curvature equation \[ \operatorname{div}\left( \frac{\nabla u}{\sqrt{1+|\nabla u|^2}} \right) = -f(u) \qquad \text{in}\ \Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n. \] In the local…
We consider entire solutions to $L u= f(u)$ in $\RR^2$, where $L$ is a general nonlocal operator with kernel $K(y)$. Under certain natural assumtions on the operator $L$, we show that any stable solution is a 1D solution. In particular, our…

We consider the problem $-\Delta u+\lambda u=u^{p-1}$, where $u\in H^1_0(\Omega)$ verifies $\|u\|_{L^2}=m>0$, and $\lambda\in [0,+\infty)$. Here, $\mathbb{R}^N\setminus\Omega$ is nonempty and compact. We prove the existence of a solution…
