We establish the existence of positive solutions for a nonlinear elliptic Dirichlet problem in dimension $N$ involving the $N$-Laplacian. The nonlinearity considered depends on the gradient of the unknown function and an exponential term.…
We obtain a pair of nontrivial solutions for a class of concave-linear-convex type elliptic problems that are either critical or subcritical. The solutions we find are neither local minimizers nor of mountain pass type in general. They are…
The symmetry group of a (discrete) Painlev\'e equation provides crucial information on the properties of the equation. In this paper we argue against the commonly-held belief that the symmetry group of a given equation is solely determined…

We present a geometric description, based on the affine Weyl group E_{6}^{(1)}, of two discrete analogues of the Painlev\'e VI equation, known as the asymmetric q-P_{V} and asymmetric d-P_{IV}. This approach allows us to describe in a…
We investigate the question of finding discrete Lax pairs for the six discrete Painlev\'e equations (Pn). The choice we make is to discretize the pairs of Garnier, once converted to matricial form.
We present a unified description of birational representation of Weyl groups associated with T-shaped Dynkin diagrams, by using a particular configuration of points in the projective plane. A geometric formulation of tau-functions is given…

Invariant submanifolds of the so-called Darboux-KP chain are investigated. It is shown that restriction of dynamics on some class of invariant submanifolds yields the extension of the discrete KP hierarchy, while the intersections leads to…
Uniqueness of the finite element solution for nonmonotone quasilinear problems of elliptic type is established in one and two dimensions. In each case, we prove a comparison theorem based on locally bounding the variation of the discrete…
