Let $2\le n\le9$. Suppose that $f:R\to R$ is locally Lipschitz function satisfying $f(t)\ge A\min\{0,t\}-K$ for all $t\in R$ with some constant $A\ge0$ and $K\ge 0$. We establish an a priori interior H\"older regularity of $C^2$-stable…
We establish Liouville type theorems for elliptic systems with various classes of non-linearities on $\mathbb{R}^N$. We show among other things, that a system has no semi-stable solution in any dimension, whenever the infimum of the…
The Laplacian $\Delta_{\mathbb{S}^{n-1}}$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ has the property that it can explicitly be expressed in terms of $\Lambda$, the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map of the unit ball, as…
We introduce and study the notion of $\star$-stability with respect to a semistar operation $\star$ defined on a domain $R$; in particular we consider the case where $\star$ is the $w$-operation. This notion allows us to generalize and…
We call pattern any non-constant stable solution of a semilinear elliptic equation with Neumann boundary conditions. A classical theorem of Casten, Holland [19] and Matano [49] states that stable patterns do not exist in convex domains. In…
Let $\lambda_{q}:=\inf{\Vert\nabla u\Vert_{L^{p}(\Omega)}^{p}/\Vertu\Vert_{L^{q}(\Omega)}^{p}:u\in W_{0}^{1,p}(\Omega)\setminus{0}} $, where $\Omega$ is a bounded and smooth domain of $\mathbb{R}^{N},$ $1<p<N$ and $1\leq q\leq p^{\star}%…
In this paper, we compute the second variation of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue on extremal domains in general Riemannian manifolds and establish a criterion for stability. We classify the stable extremal domains in the 2-sphere and…
We consider the higher order Schr\"odinger operator $H=(-\Delta)^m+V(x)$ in $n$ dimensions with real-valued potential $V$ when $n>2m$, $m\in \mathbb N$. We adapt our recent results for $m>1$ to show that the wave operators are bounded on…
The present paper establishes the correspondence between the properties of the solutions of a class of PDEs and the geometry of sets in Euclidean space. We settle the question of whether (quantitative) absolute continuity of the elliptic…
For a linear, strictly elliptic second order differential operator in divergence form with bounded, measurable coefficients on a Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ we show that solutions of the corresponding elliptic problem with Robin and thus in…
We prove Liouville type theorems for $p$-harmonic functions on exterior domains of the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space, where $1<p<\infty$ and $d\geq 2$. We show that every positive $p$-harmonic function satisfying zero Dirichlet, Neumann…
To our knowledge, this paper is the first attempt to consider the existence issue for fractional $p$-Laplacian equation: $(-\Delta)_p^s u= \lambda f(u),\; u> 0 ~\text{in}~\Omega;\; u=0\;\text{in}~ \mathbb{R}^N\setminus\Omega$, where $p>1$,…
This is a continuation of recent work on the general definition of pseudo-differential operators of type $1,1$, in H\"ormander's sense. Continuity in $L_p$-Sobolev spaces and H\"older--Zygmund spaces, and more generally in Besov and…
This note investigates the regularity of zero-extensions of $L^p$ functions from bounded domains. Simple examples show the possibility of a loss in smoothness and our goal is to quantify this loss more generally. For the unit cube…
We consider a class of nonautonomous parabolic first-order coupled systems in the Lebesgue space $L^p({\mathbb R}^d;{\mathbb R}^m)$, $(d,m \ge 1)$ with $p\in [1,+\infty)$. Sufficient conditions for the associated evolution operator ${\bf…
In this paper, we fully resolve the question of whether the Regularity problem for the parabolic PDE $-\partial_tu + \mbox{div}(A\nabla u)=0$ on a Lipschitz cylinder $\mathcal O\times\mathbb R$ is solvable for some $p\in (1,\infty)$ under…
We establish an explicit maximum principle for the Dirichlet problem associated with the $p$-Laplacian ($p>1$), where the constant depends on both $p$ and the geometry of the domain. From this result we derive two main applications. First,…
We study families of strongly elliptic, second order differential operators with singular coefficients on domains with conical points. We obtain uniform estimates on their inverses and on the regularity of the solutions to the associated…
Let $\mathcal{O}\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ be a bounded domain of class $C^{2p}$. In $L_2(\mathcal{O};\mathbb{C}^n)$, we study a selfadjoint strongly elliptic operator $A_{N,\varepsilon}$ of order $2p$ given by the expression $b({\mathbf D})^*…
A classical result by Casten-Holland and Matano asserts that constants are the only positive and stable solutions to semilinear elliptic PDEs subject to homogeneous Neumann boundary condition in bounded convex domains. In other terms, this…
