This paper deals with existence of a nontrivial positive solution to systems of equations involving nontrivial nonhomogeneous terms and critical or subcritical nonlinearities. Via a minimization argument we prove existence of a positive…

Critical points of an invariant function may or may not be symmetric. We prove, however, that if a symmetric critical point exists, those adjacent to it are generically symmetry breaking. This mathematical mechanism is shown to carry…

This paper considers robust solutions to a class of nonlinear least squares problems using min-max optimization approach. We give an explicit formula for the value function of the inner maximization problem and show the existence of global…

In this paper we study the nonlinear elliptic problem involving p(x)-Laplacian with nonsmooth potential, where the weighted function may change sign. By using critical point theory for locally Lipschitz functionals due to Chang, we obtain…

We study a class of statistical inverse problems with non-linear pointwise operators motivated by concrete statistical applications. A two-step procedure is proposed, where the first step smoothes the data and inverts the non-linearity.…

Let $(M, g)$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. The Yamabe problem concerning the existence of a metric conformally equivalent to $g$ having constant scalar curvature on $M$ and constant mean curvature on its boundary is…

In this article we study the existence of sign changing solution of the following p-fractional problem with concave-critical nonlinearities: \begin{eqnarray*} (-\Delta)^s_pu &=& \mu |u|^{q-1}u + |u|^{p^*_s-2}u \quad\mbox{in}\quad \Omega,…

We study a $p$-Laplacian equation involving a parameter $\lambda$ and a concave-convex nonlinearity containing a weight which can change sign. By using the Nehari manifold and the fibering method, we show the existence of two positive…

We propose a new variational approach to finding multiple critical points for strongly indefinite problems without assuming the weak upper semicontinuity on the variational functionals. By this approach, we obtain the existence of…

The existence and multiplicity and nonexistence of nontrivial radial convex solutions of systems of Monge-Amp\`ere equations are established with superlinearity or sublinearity assumptions for an appropriately chosen parameter. The proof of…

Results on existence and multiplicity of solutions for a nonlinear elliptic problem driven by the $\Phi$-Laplace operator are established. We employ minimization arguments on suitable Nehari manifolds to build a negative and a positive…

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…

The min-max optimization problem, also known as the saddle point problem, is a classical optimization problem which is also studied in the context of zero-sum games. Given a class of objective functions, the goal is to find a value for the…

In the framework of the nonsmooth critical point theory for lower semi-continuous functionals, we propose a direct variational approach to investigate the existence of infinitely many weak solutions for a class of semi-linear elliptic…

In this paper we study quasilinear elliptic equations driven by the so-called double phase operator and with a nonlinear boundary condition. Due to the lack of regularity, we prove the existence of multiple solutions by applying the Nehari…

The aim of this paper is to present an original approach that takes advantage from the geometric features of strictly convex functions to tackle the problem of finding the minimum from another perspective. The general idea is that near the…

We are interested in looking for two nontrivial solutions for a class of nonhomogeneous quasilinear elliptic system with sign-changing weight functions and concave-convex nonlinearities on the bounded domain. This kind of quasilinear…

We study the existence and the profile of sign-changing solutions to the slightly subcritical problem $$ -\De u=|u|^{2^*-2-\eps}u \hbox{in} \cB, \quad u=0 \hbox{on}\partial \cB, $$ where $\cB$ is the unit ball in $\rr^N$, $N\geq 3$,…

In this paper, we study the multiplicity of nonnegative solutions for mixed local and non-local problem involving critical nonlinearity with sign changing weight. Using Nehari manifold method and fibering map analysis, we have shown…

We establish the existence and nonexistence of entire solutions to a semilinear elliptic problem whose nonlinearity is the critical power multiplied by a function that takes the value 1 in an open bounded region and the value -1 in its…
