We use some tools from nonlinear analysis to study two examples of singular stochastic elliptic PDEs that cannot be solved by the contraction principle or the Schauder fixed point theorem. Let $\xi$ stand for a spatial white noise on a…

In this short paper, we show there do not exist three-dimensional noncompact $\kappa$-solutions of Ricci flow that have positive curvature and satisfy a Type-I bound. This represents progress towards the proof of Perelman's conjecture that…

We prove that if the elliptic problem $-\Delta u+b(x)|\nabla u|=c(x)u$ with $c\ge0$ has a positive supersolution in a domain $\Omega$ of $ \IR^{N\ge 3}$, then $c,b$ must satisfy the inequality \[\sqrt{ \int_\Omega c\phi^2}\le \sqrt{…

Consider the KPP-type equation of the form $\Delta u+f(u)=0$, where $f:[0,1] \to \mathbb R_{+}$ is a concave function. We prove for arbitrary dimensions that there is no solution bounded in $(0,1)$. The significance of this result from the…

We study the existence of solution to the problem $$(-\Delta)^\frac n2u=Qe^{nu}\quad\text{in }\mathbb{R}^{n},\quad \kappa:=\int_{\mathbb{R}^{n}}Qe^{nu}dx<\infty,$$ where $Q\geq 0$, $\kappa\in (0,\infty)$ and $n\geq 3$. Using ODE techniques…

In this paper we study the problem, posed by Troyanov, of prescribing the Gaussian curvature under a conformal change of the metric on surfaces with conical singularities. Such geometrical problem can be reduced to the solvability of a…

We showed the existence of non-radial solutions of the equation $\Delta u -\lambda u + \lambda u^q =0$ on the round sphere $S^m$, for $q<2m/(m-2)$, and study the number of such solutions in terms of $\lambda$. We show that for any…

In this note, we study Liouville type theorem for conformal Gaussian curvature equation (also called the mean field equation) $$ -\Delta u=K(x)e^u, in R^2 $$ where $K(x)$ is a smooth function on $R^2$. When $K(x)=K(x_1)$ is a sign-changing…

We present the explicit form for all the four dimensional, static, spherically symmetric solutions in $(4+n)$-d Abelian Kaluza-Klein theory by performing a subset of $SO(2,n)$ transformations corresponding to four $SO(1,1)$ boosts on the…

In this paper we prove the global existence of a strong solution to the initial boundary value problem for the exponential partial differential equation $\partial_tu-\Delta e^{-\Delta u}+e^{-\Delta u}-1=0$. The equation was proposed as a…

Recently it was shown that the area A and the angular momentum J of any apparent horizon on a maximal, axisymmetric and asymptotically flat Cauchy hyper-surface of a vacuum space-time satisfy necessarily the universal inequality A >= 8 pi…

By works of Schoen-Yau and Gromov-Lawson any Riemannian manifold with nonnegative scalar curvature and diffeomorphic to a torus is isometric to a flat torus. Gromov conjectured subconvergence of tori with respect to a weak Sobolev type…

For Gauss curvature equation (or more general Toda systems) defined on two dimensional spaces, the vanishing rate of certain curvature functions on blowup points is a key estimate for numerous applications. However, if these equations have…

We prove that axially symmetric solutions to the $Q$-curvature type problem $$ \alpha P_6 u + 120(1-\frac{e^{6u}}{\int_{\mathbb{S}^6} e^{6u}})=0 \ \ \ \ \ \mbox{on} \ \mathbb{S}^6 $$ must be constants, provided that $ \frac{1}{2}\leq \alpha…

The existence of nonnegative radially symmetric eternal solutions of exponential self-similar type $u(t,x)=e^{-p\beta t/(2-p)} f_\beta(|x|e^{-\beta t};\beta)$ is investigated for the singular diffusion equation with critical gradient…

We study nonexistence results and gradient estimates for solutions of \[ \Delta_p v + a v^{q}=0 \] defined on complete Riemannian manifolds satisfying a \emph{$\chi$-type Sobolev inequality}. We establish a Liouville theorem under the…

In this article, we prove the existence of solutions to a nonlinear nonlocal elliptic problem with a singualrity and a discontinuous critical nonlinearity which is given as follows. \begin{align} \begin{split}\label{main_prob}…

In this paper, we establish new geometric rigidity results through the study of Lyapunov exponent level sets via invariant measures. First, we prove that for a manifold $M$ without focal points, if the zero Lyapunov exponent level set has…

Answering a question by M. Struwe (Vietnam J. Math. 2020) related to the blow-up behaviour in the Nirenberg problem, we show that the prescribed $Q$-curvature equation $$\Delta^2 u=(1-|x|^p)e^{4u}\text{ in }\mathbb{R}^4,\quad…

In a class of Gleyzes-Langlois-Piazza-Vernizzi (GLPV) theories, we derive both vacuum and interior Schwarzschild solutions under the condition that the derivatives of a scalar field $\phi$ with respect to the radius $r$ vanish. If the…
