We consider fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic equations with quadratic growth in the gradient, such as $$ -F(x,u,Du,D^2u) =\lambda c(x)u+\langle M(x)D u, D u \rangle +h(x) $$ in a bounded domain with a Dirichlet boundary condition, here…

We consider equations of the form $\Delta u +\lambda^2 V(x)e^{\,u}=\rho$ in various two dimensional settings. We assume that $V>0$ is a given function, $\lambda>0$ is a small parameter and $\rho=\mathcal O(1)$ or $\rho\to +\infty$ as…

Maximum principles and uniform anti-maximum principles are a ubiquitous topic in PDE theory that is closely tied to the Krein--Rutman theorem and kernel estimates for resolvents. We take up a classical idea of Tak\'a\v{c} - to prove…
