Abstract. In this paper we prove several rigidity theorems related to and including Lytchak's problem. The focus is on Alexandrov spaces with \curv\geq1, nonempty boundary, and maximal radius \frac{\pi}{2}. We exhibit many such spaces that…

We consider the nonlinear and nonlocal problem $$ A_{1/2}u=|u|^{2^\sharp-2}u\ \text{in \Omega, \quad u=0 \text{on} \partial\Omega $$where $A_{1/2}$ represents the square root of the Laplacian in a bounded domain with zero Dirichlet boundary…

If $f$ is a function of $n$ variables that is locally $L^1$ approximable by a sequence of smooth functions satisfying local $L^1$ bounds on the determinants of the minors of the Hessian, then $f$ admits a second order Taylor expansion…

We prove some refined asymptotic estimates for postive blowing up solutions to $\Delta u+\epsilon u=n(n-2)u^{\frac{n+2}{n-2}}$ on $\Omega$, $\partial_\nu u=0$ on $\partial\Omega$; $\Omega$ being a smooth bounded domain of $\rn$, $n\geq 3$.…

We go further in the investigation of the Robin problem $(P_{\alpha})$: $-\Delta u=a(x)u^{q}$ in $\Omega$, $u\geq0$ in $\Omega$, $\partial_{\nu}u=\alpha u$ on $\partial \Omega$; on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{N}$, with $a$…

In this paper, we consider the well-known following shape optimization problem: $$\lambda_2(\Omega^*)=\min_{\stackrel{|\Omega|=V_0} {\Omega\textrm{ convex}}} \lambda_2(\Omega),$$ where $\lambda_2(\Om)$ denotes the second eigenvalue of the…

We solve variationally certain equations of stellar dynamics of the form $-\sum_i\partial_{ii} u(x) =\frac{|u|^{p-2}u(x)}{{\rm dist} (x,{\mathcal A} )^s}$ in a domain $\Omega$ of $\rn$, where ${\mathcal A} $ is a proper linear subspace of…

In this survey article we discuss the interior and boundary regularity of Alexandrov solutions to $\det D^2u = 1$. We include some topics which it seems were not recently revisited in similar articles, including Calabi's interior $C^3$…

We consider the equation $-\epsilon^{2}\Delta u + u = u^ {p}$ in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\R^{3}$ with edges. We impose Neumann boundary conditions, assuming $1<p<5$, and prove concentration of solutions at suitable points of…

In this paper, we obtain the upper bounds for the Hausdorff measures of nodal sets of eigenfunctions with the Robin boundary conditions, i.e., \begin{equation*} {\left\{\begin{array}{l} \triangle u+\lambda u=0,\quad in\quad \Omega,\\…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded, convex, centrally symmetric in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ with a connected $C^{2,\epsilon}$ ($\epsilon\in(0,1)$) boundary. We show that, if the following overdetermined elliptic problem \begin{equation} -\Delta u=\alpha…

The Stokes resolvent problem $\lambda u - \Delta u + \nabla \phi = f$ with $\mathrm{div}(u) = 0$ subject to homogeneous Dirichlet or homogeneous Neumann-type boundary conditions is investigated. In the first part of the paper we show that…

For all $N \geq 9$, we find smooth entire epigraphs in $\R^N$, namely smooth domains of the form $\Omega : = \{x\in \R^N\ / \ x_N > F (x_1,\ldots, x_{N-1})\}$, which are not half-spaces and in which a problem of the form $\Delta u + f(u) =…

In this note we show that the weighted $L^{2}$-Sobolev estimates obtained by P. Charpentier, Y. Dupain & M. Mounkaila for the weighted Bergman projection of the Hilbert space $L^{2}\left(\Omega,d\mu_{0}\right)$ where $\Omega$ is a smoothly…

A classical regularity result is that non-negative solutions to the Dirichlet problem $\Delta u =f$ in a bounded domain $\Omega$, where $f\in L^q(\Omega)$, $q>\frac{n}2$, satisfy $\|u\|_{L^\infty(\Omega)} \leq C\|f\|_{L^q(\Omega)}$. We…

For $N\geq 4$, we let $\Omega$ to be a smooth bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^N$, $\Gamma$ a smooth closed submanifold of $\Omega$ of dimension $k$ with $1\leq k \leq N-2$ and $h$ a continuous function defined on $\Omega$. We denote by…

In this note, we study the radius of positively curved or non-negatively curved Alexandrov space with strictly convex boundary, with convexity measured by the Base-Angle defined by Alexander and Bishop. We also estimate the volume of the…

We present a technique for proving convergence to the Aleksandrov solution of the Monge-Ampere equation of a stable and consistent finite difference scheme. We also require a notion of discrete convexity with a stability property and a…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $R^n$ with $C^2$-smooth boundary of co-dimension 1, and let $H=-\Delta +V(x)$ be a Schr\"odinger operator on $\Omega$ with potential V locally bounded. We seek the weakest conditions we can find on the…

Let $\Omega\subset \R^N$ ($N\geq 3$) be an open domain (may be unbounded) with $0\in \partial\Omega$ and $\partial\Omega$ be of $C^2$ at $0$ with the negative mean curvature $H(0)$. By using variational methods, we consider the following…
