This paper provides a functional analytic approach to differential equations on Banach space with slowly evolving parameters. We develop a Fenichel-like theory for attracting subsets of critical manifolds via a Lyapunov-Perron method. This…
We study the dynamics of the one-dimensional quasi-affine map $x\mapsto \left\lfloor \lambda x +\mu \right\rfloor$, providing a complete description of the map's periodic points, and of the limit points of every $x\in\mathbb{R}$ under the…
Given a real Banach space $X$, we show that the Nehari manifold method can be applied to functionals which are $C^1$ in $X \setminus \{0\}$. In particular we deal with functionals that can be unbounded near $0$, and prove the existence of a…
We establish an abstract critical point theorem for locally Lipschitz functionals that does not require any compactness condition of Palais-Smale type. It generalizes and unifies three other critical point theorems established in…
We study the dependence of least nontrivial critical levels of the energy functional corresponding to the zero Dirichlet problem $-\Delta_p u = f(u)$ in a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ upon domain perturbations. Assuming that…
We consider the finite-temperature phase diagram of the $S = 1/2$ frustrated Heisenberg bilayer. Although this two-dimensional system may show magnetic order only at zero temperature, we demonstrate the presence of a line of…
A classical result due to Blaschke states that for every analytic self-map $f$ of the open unit disk of the complex plane there exists a Blaschke product $B$ such that the zero sets of $f$ and $B$ agree. In this paper we show that there is…
We consider a family $\{(u_\varepsilon, v_\varepsilon)\}_{\varepsilon>0}$ of critical points of the Ambrosio-Tortorelli functional. Assuming a uniform energy bound, the sequence $\{(u_\varepsilon, v_\varepsilon)\}_{\varepsilon>0}$ converges…
Druet [6] proved that if $(f_\gamma)_\gamma$ is a sequence of Moser-Trudinger type nonlinearities with critical growth, and if $(u_\gamma)_\gamma$ solves $$ \begin{cases} &\Delta u =f_\gamma(x,u)\,,~~ u>0\text{ in }\Omega\,,\\ &u =0\text{…
In this paper, we consider the following PDE involving two Sobolev-Hardy critical exponents, \label{0.1} {& \Delta u + \lambda\frac{u^{2^*(s_1)-1}}{|x|^{s_1}} + \frac{u^{2^*(s_2)-1}}{|x|^{s_2}} =0 \text{in} \Omega, & u=0 \qquad \text{on}…
We study the domain wall structure in thin uniaxial ferromagnetic films in the presence of an in-plane applied external field in the direction normal to the easy axis. Using the reduced one-dimensional thin film micromagnetic model, we…
In this manuscript, we investigate the exponentially harmonic equation on noncompact forward complete Finsler metric measure spaces. We demonstrate that this Finslerian equation represents a critical point of an exponential energy…
We prove that for any singular measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ it is possible to cover $\mu$-almost every point with $n$ families of Lipschitz slabs of arbitrarily small total width. More precisely, up to a rotation, for every $\delta>0$…
The Riemann Hypothesis states that within the strip region of the complex plane $0 < {\rm Re}(s) < 1$, the Riemann $\xi(s)$ function has zeros only on the critical line ${\rm Re}(s) = \frac{1}{2}$ and none elsewhere. To prove the Riemann…

This article proves that if M is a smooth manifold of dimension at least four, then for generic choice of metric on M, all prime parametrized minimal surfaces in M are free of branch points and lie on nondegenerate critical submanifolds for…

On a Riemannian surface, the energy of a map into a Riemannian manifold is a conformal invariant functional, and its critical points are the harmonic maps. Our main result is a generalization of this theorem when the starting manifold is…
