We consider the elliptic quasilinear equation --$\Delta$ m u = u p |$\nabla$u| q in R N with q $\ge$ m and p > 0, 1 < m < N. Our main result is a Liouville-type property, namely, all the positive C 1 solutions in R N are constant. We also…

In this paper we consider the following Sturm-Liouville equation \[ \left\{ \begin{aligned} -(x^{2\alpha}u'(x))'+u(x)&=f(x) && \text{in } (0,1],\\ u(1)&=0 \end{aligned} \right. \] where $\alpha<1$ is a nonzero real number and $f$ belongs to…

We consider the singular Liouville equation and the Henon-Lane-Emden problem on simply connected planar domains. We show that any solution to each problem must satisfy a uniform bound on the mass. The same results applies to some systems…

We prove a Liouville-type theorem for bounded stable solutions $v \in C^2(\R^n)$ of elliptic equations of the type (-\Delta)^s v= f(v)\qquad {in $\R^n$,} where $s \in (0,1)$ {and $f$ is any nonnegative function}. The operator $(-\Delta)^s$…
