In this paper, we study, for functionals having a mountain pass geometry on a constraint, the existence of bounded Palais-Smale sequences carrying Morse index type information.

We introduce a class of functionals on the space of rapidly decreasing sequences $s$, called $\mathcal{F}_s$-functionals, defined as decomposable sums of quadratic and convex terms with quadratic growth. We prove that such functionals…

We describe the asymptotic behavior of Palais-Smale sequences associated to certain Yamabe-type equations on manifolds with boundary. We prove that each of those sequences converges to a solution of the limit equation plus a finite number…

We prove that subharmonic functions of finite order on finite dimensional real space, bounded from above outside of some asymptotically small sets on spheres, are bounded from above everywhere. It follows that subharmonic functions of…

We prove several classification results for $p$-Laplacian problems on bounded and unbounded domains, and deal with qualitative properties of sign-changing solutions to $p$-Laplacian equations on $\mathbb R^N$ involving critical…

We show that the Hamiltonian action satisfies the Palais-Smale condition over a "mixed regularity" space of loops in cotangent bundles, namely the space of loops with regularity $H^s$, $s\in (\frac 12, 1)$, in the base and $H^{1-s}$ in the…

We are concerned with a super-Liouville equation on compact surfaces with genus larger than one, obtaining the first non-trivial existence result for this class of problems via min-max methods. In particular we make use of a Nehari manifold…

Using the reformulation in divergence form of the Euler-Lagrange equation for the Willmore functional as it was developed in "Analysis of the Willmore Functional" by T. Riviere (Invent. Math. 174), we study the limit of a local Palais-Smale…

We extend the Global Compactness result by M. Struwe (Math. Z, 1984) to any fractional Sobolev spaces $\dot{H}^s(\Omega)$ for $0<s<N/2$ and $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ a bounded domain with smooth boundary. The proof is a simple direct…

In this paper we study solutions, possibly unbounded and sign-changing, of the following problem: -\D_{\lambda} u=|x|_{\lambda}^a |u|^{p-1}u, in R^n,\;n\geq 1,\; p>1, and a \geq 0, where \D_{\lambda} is a strongly degenerate elliptic…

We prove that convex functions of finite order on the real line and subharmonic functions of finite order on finite dimensional real space, bounded from above outside of some set of zero relative Lebesgue density, are bounded from above…

We prove the compactness of solutions to general fourth order elliptic equations which are L^1-perturbations of the Q-curvature equation on compact Riemannian 4-maniods. Consequently, we prove the global existence and convergence of the…

By extending and generalising previous work by Ros and Savo, we describe a method to show that the Morse index of every closed minimal hypersurface on certain positively curved ambient manifolds is bounded from below by a linear function of…

We employ partitioning methods, in the spirit of Montiel--Ros but here recast for general actions of compact Lie groups, to prove effective lower bounds on the Morse index of certain families of closed minimal hypersurfaces in the round…

We classify stable and finite Morse index solutions to general semilinear elliptic equations posed in Euclidean space of dimension at most 10, or in some unbounded domains.

A fundamental theorem of Liouville asserts that positive entire harmonic functions in Euclidean spaces must be constant. A remarkable Liouville-type theorem of Caffarelli-Gidas-Spruck states that positive entire solutions of $-\Delta u=u^{…

In this paper we study the Palais-Smale sequences of the conformal Dirac-Einstein problem. After we characterize the bubbling phenomena, we prove an Aubin type result leading to the existence of a positive solution. Then we show the…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group and $E$ be a $G$-space. An irreducible probability measure $\mu$ on $G$ is said to have Liouville property on $E$ if $G$-invariant functions on $E$ are the only continuous bounded functions on $E$ that…
