We discuss the existence of positive superharmonic functions $u$ in $\mathbb{R}^N_+=\mathbb{R}^{N-1}\times (0, \infty)$, $N\geq 3$, in the sense $-\Delta u=\mu$ for some Radon measure $\mu$, so that $u$ satisfies the nonlocal boundary…

We consider the equation $\Delta^2 u=g(x,u) \geq 0$ in the sense of distribution in $\Omega'=\Omega\setminus \{0\} $ where $u$ and $ -\Delta u\geq 0.$ Then it is known that $u$ solves $\Delta^2 u=g(x,u)+\alpha \delta_0-\beta \Delta…

We study the boundary behaviour of solutions $u$ of $-\Delta_{N}u+ |u|^{q-1}u=0$ in a bounded smooth domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^{N}$ subject to the boundary condition $u=0$ except at one point, in the range $q>N-1$. We prove that if…

We consider a semilinear elliptic problem in an annulus of R^N, with N>1. Recent results ensure that there exists a sequence p_k of exponents of the nonlinear term at which a nonradial bifurcation from the radial solution occurs. Exploiting…

Let $G$ be a nonempty bounded domain in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space. The main results are general estimates from below at points from $G$ for an arbitrary subharmonic function $u\not\equiv -\infty$ on the closure of the domain $G$…

We consider a bounded domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^N$, $N\geq 3$, and $h$ a continuous function on $\Omega$. Let $\Gamma$ be a closed curve contained in $\Omega$. We study existence of positive solutions $u\in H^1_0(\Omega)$ to the…

In this paper, we introduce concepts of separable functions in balls and in the whole space, and develop a new method to investigate the qualitative properties of separable functions. We first study the axial symmetry and monotonicity of…

We obtain conditions guaranteeing that weak solutions of the differential inequality $$ \sum_{|\alpha| = m} \partial^\alpha a_\alpha (x, u) \ge f (x) g (|u|) \quad \mbox{in } \Omega \setminus S, $$ has a removable singular set $S \subset…

We investigate the problem $$-\Delta u = \lambda b(x)|u|^{q-2}u +a(x)|u|^{p-2}u \mbox{ in } \Omega, \quad \frac{\partial u}{\partial \mathbf{n}} = 0 \mbox{ on } \partial \Omega, \leqno{(P_\lambda)} $$ where $\Omega$ is a bounded smooth…

We prove some sharp Hardy inequalities for domains with a spherical symmetry. In particular, we prove an inequality for domains of the unit $n$-dimensional sphere with a point singularity, and an inequality for functions defined on the…

We show the following symmetry property of a bounded Reinhardt domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}$: let $M=\partial\Omega$ be the smooth boundary of $\Omega$ and let $h$ be the Second Fundamental Form of $M$; if the coefficient $h(T,T)$…

Given a smooth domain $\Omega\subset\RR^N$ such that $0 \in \partial\Omega$ and given a nonnegative smooth function $\zeta$ on $\partial\Omega$, we study the behavior near 0 of positive solutions of $-\Delta u=u^q$ in $\Omega$ such that $u…

In this paper, we study the existence and the summability of solutions to a Robin boundary value problem whose prototype is the following: $$ \begin{cases} -\text{div}(b(|u|)\nabla u)=f &\text{in }\Omega,\\[.2cm] \displaystyle\frac{\partial…

We study properties of positive functions satisfying (E) --$\Delta$u + u p -- M |$\nabla$u| q = 0 is a domain $\Omega$ or in R N + when p > 1 and 1 < q < min{p, 2}. We concentrate our research on the solutions of (E) vanishing on the…

We investigate a version of the Phragm\'en-Lindel\"of theorem for solutions of the equation $\Delta_\infty u=0$ in unbounded convex domains. The method of proof is to consider this infinity harmonic equation as the limit of the $p$-harmonic…

In this article, we study domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb{S}^2$ that support positive solutions of the overdetermined problem $$ \Delta u + f(u,|\nabla u|)=0 \quad \text{in } \Omega, $$ subject to the boundary conditions $u=0$ on…

We consider sparse polynomials in $N$ variables over a finite field, and ask whether they vanish on a set $S^N$, where $S$ is a set of nonzero elements of the field. We see that if for a polynomial $f$, there is $\mathbf{c}\in S^N$ with $f…

We show that there are harmonic functions on a ball ${\mathbb{B}_n}$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 2$, that are continuous up to the boundary (and even H\"older continuous) but not in the Sobolev space $H^s(\mathbb{B}_n)$ for any $s$…

In this note we investigate three-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with $\delta$-interactions supported on $C^2$-smooth cones, both finite and infinite. Our main results concern a Faber-Krahn-type inequality for the principal eigenvalue…

In this article we study a Bernoulli-type free boundary problem and generalize a work of Henrot and Shahgholian in \cite{HS1} to $\mathcal{A}$-harmonic PDEs. These are quasi-linear elliptic PDEs whose structure is modeled on the $p$-Laplace…
