In this paper, we study the existence and multiplicity of weak solutions for a general class of elliptic equations (\mathscr{P}_{\lambda}) in a smooth bounded domain, driven by a nonlocal integrodifferential operator…
We apply a recently obtained three critical points theorem of B. Ricceri to prove the existence of at least three solutions of certain two-parameters Dirichlet problems defined on the Sierpinski gasket. We also show the existence of at…
This paper establishes three minimax theorems for possibly nonconvex functions on Euclidean spaces or on infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. The theorems also guarantee the existence of saddle points. As a by-product, a complete solution…
This paper develops new limit theory for data that are generated by networks or more generally display cross-sectional dependence structures that are governed by observable and unobservable characteristics. Strategic network formation…
This paper first proves two fixed point theorems in complete random normed modules, which are respectively the random generalizations of the classical Banach's contraction mapping principle and Browder--Kirk's fixed point theorem. As…
We establish a general "boundedness implies convergence" principle for a family of evolving Riemannian metrics. We then apply this principle to collapsing Calabi-Yau metrics and normalized K\"ahler-Ricci flows on torus fibered minimal…
In this paper, making use of Theorem 2 of [5], we establish a new four critical points theorem which can be regarded as a companion to Theorem 1 of [4]. We also present an application to the Dirichlet problem for a class of quasilinear…
We are concerned with the study of the existence and multiplicity of solutions for Dirichlet boundary value problems, involving the $( p( m ), \, q( m ) )-$ equation and the nonlinearity is superlinear but does not fulfil the…
In the study of Euclidean lattices, the product of the successive minima is bounded from above and below by explicit quantities. This result is known as Minkowski's second theorem, and can be refined to include Hermite's constant in the…
We consider a kind of nonlinear systems on a locally finite graphs $G=(V,E)$. We prove via the mountain pass theorem that this kind of systems has a nontrivial ground state solution which depends on the parameter $\lambda$ with some…
In this paper, we explore various equivalences of Ekeland's variational principle within the framework of group-invariant mappings. We introduce and analyze several key theorems, including the Drop theorem, the Petal theorem, Caristi-Kirk…
In this paper, under mild assumptions, we derive a law of large numbers, a central limit theorem with an error estimate, an almost sure invariance principle and a variant of Chernoff bound in finite-state hidden Markov models. These limit…
We investigate splitting-type variational problems with some linear growth conditions. For balanced solutions of the associated Euler-Lagrange equation we receive a result analogous to Bernstein's theorem on non-parametric minimal surfaces.…
The basic disentanglement theorem established by the present authors states that estimates on a weighted geometric mean over (convex) families of functions can be disentangled into quantitatively linked estimates on each family separately.…
We consider the following problem $$(P) \begin{cases} -\Delta_{p}u= c(x)|u|^{q-1}u+\mu |\nabla u|^{p}+h(x) & \ \ \mbox{ in }\Omega, u=0 & \ \ \mbox{ on } \partial\Omega, \end{cases}$$ where $\Omega$ is a bounded set in $\mathbb{R}^{N}$…
The main thrust of our current work is to exploit very specific characteristics of a given problem in order to acquire improved compactness for supercritical problems and to prove existence of new types of solutions. To this end, we shall…
We present a new variational principle for linking models of beams and deformable solids, providing also its mathematical analysis. Despite the apparent differences between the two types of governing equations, it will be shown that the…
We introduce tow assumptions weaker than the classical Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz and the subcritical polynomial growth conditions to obtain the Palais-Smale Condition. Therefore, we improve the Ambrosetti- Rabinowitz existence theorems. Also,…
The famous Banach Contraction Principle holds in complete metric spaces, but completeness is not a necessary condition -- there are incomplete metric spaces on which every contraction has a fixed point. The aim of this paper is to present…
The concept of convex compactness, weaker than the classical notion of compactness, is introduced and discussed. It is shown that a large class of convex subsets of topological vector spaces shares this property and that is can be used in…
