In this paper we give an unified approach to some questions arising in different fields of nonlinear analysis, namely: (a) the study of the structure of the Fu\v{c}\'\i k spectrum and (b) possible variants and extensions of the monotonicity…

The paper deals with a Dirichlet spectral problem for a singularly perturbed second order elliptic operator with rapidly oscillating locally periodic coefficients. We study the limit behaviour of the first eigenpair (ground state) of this…

In this paper, we study the optimal singular controls for stochastic recursive systems, in which the control has two components: the regular control, and the singular control. Under certain assumptions, we establish the dynamic programming…

In this expository note, we present a simple proof of the Fredholm Alternative for compact operators that are norm limits of finite rank operators. We also prove a Fredholm Alternative for pseudodifferential operators of order < 0.

We approach higher-order variational problems of Herglotz type from an optimal control point of view. Using optimal control theory, we derive a generalized Euler-Lagrange equation, transversality conditions, a DuBois-Reymond necessary…

We present a number of cases of optimal control of Volterra and Fredholm integral equations that are solvable in the sense that the problem can be reduced to a solvable integral equation. This is conceptually analogous to the role of the…

Unbounded operators corresponding to nonlocal elliptic problems on a bounded region $G\subset\mathbb R^2$ are considered. The domain of these operators consists of functions from the Sobolev space $W_2^m(G)$ being generalized solutions of…
