Constant rank theorems are obtained for saddle solutions to the special Lagrangian equation and the quadratic Hessian equation. The argument also leads to Liouville type results for the special Lagrangian equation with subcritical phase,…
We study stable solutions of the following nonlinear system $$ -\Delta u = H(u) \quad \text{in} \ \ \Omega$$ where $u:\mathbb R^n\to \mathbb R^m$, $H:\mathbb R^m\to \mathbb R^m$ and $\Omega$ is a domain in $\mathbb R^n$. We introduce the…
We consider entire solutions to $L u= f(u)$ in $\RR^2$, where $L$ is a general nonlocal operator with kernel $K(y)$. Under certain natural assumtions on the operator $L$, we show that any stable solution is a 1D solution. In particular, our…
Consider the equation div$(\varphi^2 \nabla \sigma)=0$ in $\mathbb{R}^N,$ where $\varphi>0$. It is well-known that if there exists $C>0$ such that $\int_{B_R}(\varphi \sigma)^2 dx\leq CR^2$ for every $R\geq 1$ then $\sigma$ is necessarily…
We give a complete classification of solutions bounded from above of the Liouville equation $$-\Delta u=e^{2u}\quad\mbox{in}\quad {\mathbf{R}}^2.$$ More generally, solutions in the class $$N:=\{ u:\limsup_{z\to\infty}…
The paper proves Liouville-type results for stable solutions of semilinear elliptic PDEs with convex nonlinearity, posed on the entire Euclidean space. Extensions to solutions which are stable outside a compact set are also presented.

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…
We prove new one-dimensional symmetry results for non-negative solutions, possibly unbounded, to the semilinear equation $ -\Delta u= f(u)$ in the upper half-space $\mathbb{R}^{N}_{+}$. Some Liouville-type theorems are also proven in the…
We establish a Liouville type result for stable solutions for a wide class of second order semilinear elliptic equations in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with sign-changing nonlinearity $f$. Under the hypothesis that the equation does not have any…
In this paper we consider semilinear equations $-\Delta u=f(u)$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions on certain convex domains of the two dimensional model spaces of constant curvature. We prove that a positive, semi-stable solution $u$ has…
In the paper \cite{KNSS:1}, the authors make the following conjecture: {\it any bounded ancient mild solution of the 3D axially symmetric Navier-Stokes equations is constant.} And it is proved in the case that the solution is swirl free.…
Let $L/K$ be a cyclic extension of degree $n = 2m$. It is known that the space $\text{Alt}_K(L)$ of alternating $K$-bilinear forms (skew-forms) on $L$ decomposes into a direct sum of $K$-subspaces $A^{\sigma^i}$ indexed by the elements of…
We examine the general weighted Lane-Emden system \begin{align*} -\Delta u = \rho(x)v^p,\quad -\Delta v= \rho(x)u^\theta, \quad u,v>0\quad \mbox{in }\;\mathbb{R}^N \end{align*} where $1<p\leq\theta$ and $\rho: \mathbb{R}^N\rightarrow…
Given a smooth function $K(x)$ satisfying a polynomially cone condition and $x\cdot\nabla K\leq 0$, we prove that there is no solution $u\in C^\infty(\mathbb{R}^2)$ of the equation $$-\Delta u=K(x)e^{2u}\quad \mathrm{on}\;\mathbb{R}^2$$…
We study concavity properties of positive solutions to the Logarithmic Schr\"odinger equation $-\Delta u=u\, \log u^2$ in a general convex domain with Dirichlet conditions. To this aim, we analyse the auxiliary Lane-Emden problems $-\Delta…

We consider the elliptic equation $-\Delta u = u^q|\nabla u|^p$ in $\mathbb R^n$ for any $p\ge 2$ and $q>0$. We prove a Liouville-type theorem, which asserts that any positive bounded solution is constant. The proof technique is based on…
In this paper, we investigate Liouville theorems for solutions to the anisotropic $p$-Laplace equation $$-\Delta_p^H u=-\operatorname{div}(a(\nabla u))=f(u),\quad\text{in }\mathbb{R}^n,$$ where the semilinear term $f$ may be positive,…
