We present new $L^\infty$ a priori estimates for weak solutions of a wide class of subcritical $p$-laplacian equations in bounded domains. No hypotheses on the sign of the solutions, neither of the non-linearities are required. This method…
We first study the linear eigenvalue problem for a planar Dirac system in the open half-line and describe the nodal properties of its solution by means of the rotation number. We then give a global bifurcation result for a planar nonlinear…
In this paper, we propose a new finite element approach, which is different than the classic Babuska-Osborn theory, to approximate Dirichlet eigenvalues. The Dirichlet eigenvalue problem is formulated as the eigenvalue problem of a…

We are interested in the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian in thin broken strips with angle $\alpha$. Playing with symmetries, this leads us to investigate spectral problems for the Laplace operator with mixed boundary conditions in…
We study the operator $L=-\Delta+q$ on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$, where $q(x)$ is a distributional potential. We find sufficient conditions for $q(x)$ which guarantee that $L$ is well--defined with Dirichlet and…
