We give background which shows the connection between the mean value theorem and the obstacle problem, and then we prove that a set is a mean value set for an elliptic operator of the form $Lu := \partial_i (a^{ij}(x) \partial_j u(x))$ if…
We obtain sharp pointwise estimates for positive solutions to the equation $-Lu+Vu^q=f$, where $L$ is an elliptic operator in divergence form, $q\in\mathbb{R}\setminus \{0\}$, $f\geq 0$ and $V$ is a function that may change sign, in a…

The paper addresses questions of existence and regularity of solutions to linear partial differential equations whose coefficients are generalized functions or generalized constants in the sense of Colombeau. We introduce various new…
The aim of this paper is to adapt the notion of two-scale convergence in $L^p$ to the case of a measure converging to a singular one. We present a specific case when a thin cylinder with locally periodic rapidly oscillating boundary shrinks…
In this work we study the homogenization problem for nonlinear eigenvalues of quasilinear elliptic operators. We obtain an explicit order of convergence in $k$ and in $\varepsilon$ for the (variational) eigenvalues.
Let $s\in(0,1),$ $1<p<\frac{N}{s}$ and $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$ be an open bounded set. In this work we study the existence of solutions to problems ($E_\pm$) $Lu\pm g(u)=\mu$ and $u=0$ a.e. in $\mathbb{R}^N\setminus\Omega,$ where $g\in…
We study the existence of solutions of the nonlinear problem $$ \left\{ \begin{alignedat}{2} -\Delta u + g(u) & = \mu & & \quad \text{in } \Omega,\\ u & = 0 & & \quad \text{on } \partial \Omega, \end{alignedat} \right. $$ where $\mu$ is a…
We prove that for any homogeneous, second order, constant complex coefficient elliptic system $L$, the Dirichlet problem in $\mathbb{R}^{n}_{+}$ with boundary data in BMO is well-posed in the class of functions $u$ with…
We consider an elliptic system of equations on the torus $\left[ -\frac{L}{2}, \frac{L}{2} \right)^d$ with random coefficients $A$, that are assumed to be coercive and stationary. Using two different approaches we obtain moment bounds on…
