In a smoothly bounded convex domain $\Omega\subset R^n$ with $n\ge 1$, a no-flux initial-boundary value problem for \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{l} u_t=\Delta \big(u\phi(v)\big), v_t=\Delta v-uv, \end{array} \right. \] is considered under the…
We study existence and structure of solutions to the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary problems associated with minimizers of the functional $I(u)=\int_{\Omega} (\phi(x, D u + F)+Hu) \, dx$, where $\phi (x, \xi)$, among other properties, is…
We improve the sharpness of some fractional Moser-Trudinger type inequalities, particularly those studied by Lam-Lu and Martinazzi. As an application, improving upon works of Adimurthi and Lakkis, we prove the existence of weak solutions to…
We consider a helicoidal group $G$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ and unbounded $G$-invariant $C^{2,\alpha}$-domains $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ whose helicoidal projections are exterior domains in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, $n\geq2$. We show that for…
We study a fractional conformal curvature flow on the standard unit sphere and prove a perturbation result of the fractional Nirenberg problem with fractional exponent $\sigma \in (1/2,1)$. This extends the result of Chen-Xu (Invent. Math.…
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^{N+1}$ 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 u\,\,…
The purpose of this paper is to develop a general existence theory for constrained minimization problems for functionals defined on function spaces on metric measure spaces $(\mathcal M, d, \mu)$. We apply this theory to functionals defined…
In this paper, we consider the following semilinear vector-valued minimization problem $$\min\left\{\int_{D}({|\nabla\mathbf{u}|}^2 + F(|\mathbf{u}|))dx: \ \ \mathbf{u}\in W^{1,2}(D; \mathbb{R}^m) \ \text{and} \ \mathbf{u}=\mathbf{g}\…
We prove an integral representation theorem for the $\mathrm{L}^1(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^m)$-relaxation of the functional \[ \mathcal{F}\colon u\mapsto\int_\Omega f(x,u(x),\nabla u(x))\;\mathrm{dd } x,\quad…
We consider the semilinear problem \[ \Delta u = \lambda_+ \left(-\log u^+\right) 1_{\{u > 0\}} - \lambda_- \left(-\log u^- \right) 1_{\{u < 0\}} \qquad \hbox{ in } B_1, \] where $B_1$ is the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and assume…
Consider a graph $G = (V, E)$ and a function $f: V \rightarrow \{0, 1, 2\}$. A vertex $u$ with $f(u)=0$ is defined as \emph{undefended} by $f$ if it lacks adjacency to any vertex with a positive $f$-value. The function $f$ is said to be a…
Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ be a $C^1$ domain, or more generally, a Lipschitz domain with small local Lipschitz constant. In this paper it is shown that if $u$ is a function harmonic in $\Omega$ and continuous in $\overline \Omega$ which…
Let $F$ be a $2$-regular graph of order $v$. The Oberwolfach problem, $OP(F)$, asks for a $2$-factorization of the complete graph on $v$ vertices in which each $2$-factor is isomorphic to $F$. In this paper, we give a complete solution to…
In this paper, we introduce a new notion of curvature on the edges of a graph that is defined in terms of effective resistances. We call this the Ricci--Foster curvature. We study the Ricci flow resulting from this curvature. We prove the…
This paper investigates the convergence rate for Tikhonov regularization of the problem of identifying the coefficient $a \in L^{\infty}(\Omega)$ in the Robin-boundary equation $-\mathrm{div}(a\nabla u)-bu=f,~ x \in \Omega \subset \mathbb…
Let $\Omega$ be a domain in $R^n$, and let $N=3\cdot 2^{n-1}$. We prove that the trace of the space $C^2(\Omega)$ to the boundary of $\Omega$ has the following finiteness property: A function $f:\partial\Omega\to R$ is the trace to the…
We consider the fourth order problem $\Delta^{2}u=\lambda f(u)$ on a general bounded domain $\Omega$ in $R^{n}$ with the Navier boundary condition $u=\Delta u=0$ on $\partial \Omega$. Here, $\lambda$ is a positive parameter and $…
We consider the sublinear problem \begin {equation*} \left\{\begin{array}{r c l c} -\Delta u & = &|u|^{q-2}u & \textrm{in }\Omega, \\ u_n & = & 0 & \textrm{on }\partial\Omega,\end{array}\right. \end {equation*} where $\Omega \subset…
We study the problem of minimizing the second Dirichlet eigenvalue for the Laplacian operator among sets of given perimeter. In two dimensions, we prove that the optimum exists, is convex, regular, and its boundary contains exactly two…
There are several hybrid inverse problems for equations of the form $\nabla \cdot D \nabla u - \sigma u = 0$ in which we want to obtain the coefficients $D$ and $\sigma$ on a domain $\Omega$ when the solutions $u$ are known. One approach is…
