In this note, we aim to extend the previous work on an N-barrier maximum principle (\cite{hung2015n,hung2015maximum}) to a more general class of systems of two equations. Moreover, an N-barrier maximum principle for systems of three…
A classical counterexample due to E. De Giorgi, shows that the weak maximum principle does not remain true for general linear elliptic differential systems. After that, there are some efforts to establish the weak maximum principle for…
In this article we first establish the maximum principle of the antisymmetric functions for parabolic fractional $p$-equations. Then we use it and the parabolic inequalities to provide a different proof of symmetry and monotonicity for…
We consider optimal control problems, where the control appears in the main part of the operator. We derive the Pontryagin maximum principle as a necessary optimality condition. The proof uses the concept of topological derivatives. In…
