We consider the Helmholtz equation $-\Delta u+V \, u - \lambda \, u = f $ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ where the potential $V:\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}$ is constant on each of the half-spaces $\mathbb{R}^{n-1}\times (-\infty,0)$ and…
Given $n\geq 3$, consider the critical elliptic equation $\Delta u + u^{2^*-1}=0$ in $\mathbb R^n$ with $u > 0$. This equation corresponds to the Euler-Lagrange equation induced by the Sobolev embedding $H^1(\mathbb R^n)\hookrightarrow…
We examine the degenerate elliptic system $$-\Delta_{s} u = v^p, \quad -\Delta_{s} v= u^\theta, \quad u,v>0 \quad\mbox{in }\; \mathbb{R}^N=\mathbb{R}^{N_1}\times \mathbb{R}^{N_2}, \quad\mbox{where }\;\;\;\; s \geq 0\;\; \mbox{and}…
We study the Lane-Emden conjecture, which asserts the non-existence of non-trivial, non-negative solutions to the Lane-Emden system \[ -\Delta u = v^p, \quad -\Delta v = u^q, \quad x \in \mathbb{R}^n\] in the subcritical regime. By…
A condition which guaranties the exponential decay of the solutions of the initial-boundary value problem for the damped wave equation is proved. A method for the effective computability of the coefficient of exponential decay is also…
The paper deals with the equation $-\Delta u+a(x) u +b(x)u^q -u^p = 0$, $u \in H^1(\R^N)$, whith $N\ge 2$, $1<q<p,\ p<{N+2\over N-2}$ if $N\ge 3$, $\inf a>0$, $a(x)\to a_\infty$ and $b(x)\to 0$ as $|x|\to\infty$. When $a(x)\le a_\infty$ and…
Goal of this paper is to study classes of Cauchy-Dirichlet problems which include parabolic equations of the type $$u_t -\Delta u= a(x,t)f(u)\quad\hbox{in $\Omega\times(0,T)$}$$ with $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$ bounded, convex domain and…
We give conditions on a real-valued function $F$ on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, for $d>2$, which ensure that the solution $G$ to the convolution equation $(F*G)(x) = \delta_{0,x}$ has Gaussian decay $|x|^{-(d-2)}$ for large $|x|$. Precursors of our…
We construct unbounded positive $C^2$-solutions of the equation $\Delta u + K u^{(n + 2)/(n - 2)} = 0$ in ${\R}^n$ (equipped with Euclidean metric $g_o$) such that $K$ is bounded between two positive numbers in ${\R}^n$, the conformal…
We consider the relativistic Landau equation in the spatially inhomogeneous, far-from-equilibrium regime. We establish regularity estimates of all orders, implying that solutions remain smooth for as long as some zeroth-order conditional…
Consider the spatially inhomogeneous Landau equation with moderately soft potentials (i.e. with $\gamma \in (-2,0)$) on the whole space $\mathbb R^3$. We prove that if the initial data $f_{\mathrm{in}}$ are close to the vacuum solution…
Supposing only that $\displaystyle\lim_{t \to 0} \frac{f(t)}{t} = 0$ and $\displaystyle\lim_{t \to \infty} \frac{f(t)}{t^{p}} = 0$, for some $p \in \left(1,\frac{N+1}{N-1}\right)$, we prove that solutions to the extension problem…
In this paper, we consider global weak solutions to com-pressible Navier-Stokes-Korteweg equations with density dependent viscosities , in a periodic domain $\Omega = \mathbb T^3$, with a linear drag term with respect to the velocity. The…
This short proof shows that for smooth and sufficiently fast decaying initial data at infinity, the full incompressible Navier-Stokes solutions are eternal. The proof uses an orthogonal decomposition of the velocity field and some…
We investigate the equation $(u_t + (f(u))_x)_x = f''(u) (u_x)^2/2$ where $f(u)$ is a given smooth function. Typically $f(u)= u^2/2$ or $u^3/3$. This equation models unidirectional and weakly nonlinear waves for the variational wave…
We are concerned with the properties of weak solutions of the stationary Schr\"odinger equation $-\Delta u + Vu = f(u)$, $u\in H^1(\mathbb{R}^N)\cap L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^N)$, where $V$ is H\"older continuous and $\inf V>0$. Assuming $f$ to…
We develop a new, unified approach to the following two classical questions on elliptic PDE: the strong maximum principle for equations with non-Lipschitz nonlinearities, and the at most exponential decay of solutions in the whole space or…
We proceed with the investigation of the problem $(P_\lambda): $ $-\Delta u = \lambda b(x)|u|^{q-2}u +a(x)|u|^{p-2}u \ \mbox{ in } \Omega, \ \ \frac{\partial u}{\partial \mathbf{n}} = 0 \ \mbox{ on } \partial \Omega$, where $\Omega$ is a…
