Let $B, B'\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ with $d\geq 2$ be two balls such that $B'\subset \subset B$ and the position of $B'$ is varied within $B$. For $p\in (1, \infty ),$ $s\in (0,1)$, and $q \in [1, p^*_s)$ with $p^*_s=\frac{dp}{d-sp}$ if $sp <…

A monogenic function of two vector variables is a function annihilated by the operator consisting of two Dirac operators, which are associated to two variables, respectively. We give the explicit form of differential operators in the Dirac…

Suppose that $f$ belongs to a suitably defined complete metric space $ {{\cal C}}^{{\alpha}}$ of H\"older $ {\alpha}$-functions defined on $[0,1]$. We are interested in whether one can find large (in the sense of Hausdorff, or lower/upper…

Assume that $f$ is Dunkl polyharmonic in $\mathbb{R}^n$ (i.e. $(\Delta_h)^p f=0$ for some integer $p$, where $\Delta_h$ is the Dunkl Laplacian associated to a root system $R$ and to a multiplicity function $\kappa$, defined on $R$ and…

Assuming that a "derivative" ratio rho:=f'/g' of the ratio r:=f/g of differentiable functions f and g is monotonic (that is, rho is increasing or decreasing), it was shown in previous papers that then r can switch at most once, from…

We consider two operations on the Mittag-Leffler function which cancel the exponential term in the expansion at infinity, and generate a completely monotonic function. The first one is the action of a certain differential-difference…

This paper deals with the limit behaviour of the solutions of quasi-linear equations of the form \ $\ds -\limfunc{div}\left(a\left(x, x/{\varepsilon _h},Du_h\right)\right)=f_h$ on $\Omega $ with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The sequence…

We rigorously show that a large family of monotone quantities along the weak inverse mean curvature flow is the limit case of the corresponding ones along the level sets of $p$-capacitary potentials. Such monotone quantities include…

We develop a monotonicity formula for solutions of the fractional Toda system $$ (-\Delta)^s f_\alpha = e^{-(f_{\alpha+1}-f_\alpha)} - e^{-(f_\alpha-f_{\alpha-1})} \quad \text{in} \ \ \mathbb R^n,$$ when $0<s<1$, $\alpha=1,\cdots,Q$,…

We construct a monotonicity formula for the free boundary problem of the form $\Delta u=\mu$, where $\mu$ is a Radon measure. It implies that the blow up limits of solutions are homogenous functions of degree one. The first formula is new…
