The purpose of this paper is to study weak solutions of a nonlinear Neumann problem considered on a ball. Assuming that the potential is invariant, we consider an orbit of critical points, i.e. we do not assume that critical points are…

In this paper we study an index of a critical orbit, defined in terms of the degree for invariant strongly indefinite functionals. We establish a relationship of this index with the index of a critical point of the mapping restricted to the…

This paper is concerned with the problem of an ellipsoid of revolution rolling on a horizontal plane under the assumption that there is no slipping at the point of contact and no spinning about the vertical. A reduction of the equations of…

We investigate the Neumann problem for the critical semilinear elliptic equation in cones. The standard bubble provides a family of radial solutions, which are known to be the only positive solutions in convex cones. For nonconvex cones,…

We study isoperimetric problems modeled on the liquid drop model, with nonlocal interactions under a volume constraint. While balls are natural critical points, we show that, for an unbounded sequence of radii, non-spherical solutions…

Near full-null degenerate singular points of analytic vector fields, asymptotic behaviors of orbits are not given by eigenvectors but totally decided by nonlinearities. Especially, in the case of high full-null degeneracy, i.e., the lowest…

We study a semilinear elliptic problem with a singular nonlinear term of the type $g(u)=-u^{-1}$, using a variational approach. Note that the minus sign is important since the corresponding term in the Euler-Lagrange functional is concave.…
