In general, for higher order elliptic equations and boundary value problems like the biharmonic equation and the linear clamped plate boundary value problem neither a maximum principle nor a comparison principle or -- equivalently -- a…

For a class of one-dimensional linear elliptic fourth-order equations with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions it is shown that a non-positive and non-vanishing right-hand side gives rise to a negative solution. A similar result is…

We study the spectral behavior of higher order elliptic operators upon domain perturbation. We prove general spectral stability results for Dirichlet, Neumann and intermediate boundary conditions. Moreover, we consider the case of the…

In this note we establish the positivity of Green's functions for a class of elliptic differential operators on closed, Riemannian manifolds.

We prove Liouville type theorems for $p$-harmonic functions on exterior domains of the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space, where $1<p<\infty$ and $d\geq 2$. We show that every positive $p$-harmonic function satisfying zero Dirichlet, Neumann…

In the paper, we derive an existence result for a nonlinear nonautonomous partial elliptic system on an open bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions, containg fractional powers of the weak Dirichlet-Laplace operator that are meant…

We investigate the non-existence and existence of positive solutions to biharmonic elliptic inequalities on manifolds. Using Green function and volume growth conditions, we establish the critical exponent for biharmonic problem.

We characterize the set of positive harmonic functions with Dirichlet boundary conditions in unbounded domains which are union of several different chambers. We analyze the asymptotic behavior of the solutions in connection with the changes…

This paper investigates the existence, nonexistence, and qualitative properties of p-harmonic functions in the upper half-space $\mathbb{R}^N_+ \, (N \geq 3)$ satisfying nonlinear boundary conditions for $1<p<N$. Moreover, the symmetry of…

The aim of this paper is to prove a qualitative property, namely the preservation of positivity, for Schr\"odinger-type operators acting on $L^p$ functions defined on (possibly incomplete) Riemannian manifolds. A key assumption is a control…

For a second order formally symmetric elliptic differential expression we show that the knowledge of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map or Robin-to-Dirichlet map for suitably many energies on an arbitrarily small open subset of the boundary…

In this paper, we analyze an eigenvalue problem for nonlinear elliptic operators involving homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions in a open smooth bounded domain. We prove bifurcation results from trivial solutions and from infinity for…

We show that the knowledge of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map on the boundary of a bounded open set in $R^n$ for the perturbed polyharmonic operator $(-\Delta)^m +q$ with $q\in L^{n/2m}$, $n>2m$, determines the potential $q$ in the set…

In this paper, exploiting variational methods, the existence of multiple weak solutions for a class of elliptic Navier boundary problems involving the $p$-biharmonic operator is investigated. Moreover, a concrete example of an application…

We present explicit formulas for solutions to nonhomogeneous boundary value problems involving any positive power of the Laplacian in the half-space. For non-integer powers the operator becomes nonlocal and this requires a suitable…

Optimal pointwise estimates are derived for the biharmonic Green function under Dirichlet boundary conditions in arbitrary $C^{4,\gamma}$-smooth domains. Maximum principles do not exist for fourth order elliptic equations and the Green…

For a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature, we show that bounded biharmonic functions are constant and the space consists of biharmonic functions with polynomial growth of a fixed rate is finite…

This work is about global H\"older regularity for solutions to elliptic partial differential equations subject to mixed boundary conditions on irregular domains. There are two main results. In the first, we show that if the domain of the…

We consider a partially hinged composite plate problem and we investigate qualitative properties, e.g. symmetry and monotonicity, of the eigenfunction corresponding to the density minimizing the first eigenvalue. The analysis is performed…

Let $\Phi$ be a real valued function of one real variable, let $L$ denote an elliptic second order formally self-adjoint differential operator with bounded measurable coefficients, and let $P$ stand for the Poisson operator for $L$. A…
