We consider the comparison principle for semicontinuous viscosity sub- and supersolutions of second order elliptic equations on the form $F(D^2 w,x) = 0$. A structural condition on the operator is presented that seems to unify the different…

We introduce a notion of subunit vector field for fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations. We prove that an interior maximum of a viscosity subsolution of such an equation propagates along the trajectories of subunit vector fields.…

There is a long history of parabolic monotonicity formulas that developed independently from several different fields and a much more recent elliptic theory. The elliptic theory can be localized and there are additional monotone quantities.…

Finding zeros of the sum of two maximally monotone operators involving a continuous linear operator is a central problem in optimization and monotone operator theory. We revisit the duality framework proposed by Eckstein, Ferris, Pennanen,…

This paper addresses inverse problems (in a broad sense) for two classes of multivariate neural network (NN) operators, with particular emphasis on saturation results, and both analytical and semi-analytical inverse theorems. One of the key…

We prove a comparison theorem for super- and sub-solutions with non-vanishing gradients to semilinear PDEs provided a nonlinearity $f$ is $L^p$ function with $p > 1$. The proof is based on a strong maximum principle for solutions of…

We consider the nonlinear Neumann problem for fully nonlinear elliptic PDEs on a quadrant. We establish a comparison theorem for viscosity sub and supersolutions of the nonlinear Neumann problem. The crucial argument in the proof of the…

In this paper, we carry out the analysis of the semismooth Newton method for bilinear control problems related to semilinear elliptic PDEs. We prove existence, uniqueness and regularity for the solution of the state equation, as well as…

In this paper we use the method of layer potentials to study $L^2$ boundary value problems in a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ for a family of second order elliptic systems with rapidly oscillating periodic coefficients, arising in the…

We introduce and study a notion of duality for two classes of optimization problems commonly occurring in probability theory. That is, on an abstract measurable space $(\Omega,\mathcal{F})$, we consider pairs $(E,\mathcal{G})$ where $E$ is…

We approximate the homogenization of fully nonlinear, convex, uniformly elliptic Partial Differential Equations in the periodic setting, using a variational formula for the optimal invariant measure, which may be derived via…

This note is meant to introduce the reader to a duality principle for nonlinear equations that recently appeared in the literature. Motivations come from the desire to give a unifying potential-theoretic framework for various maximum…

A key observation underlying this paper is the fact that the range invariance condition for convergence of regularization methods for nonlinear ill-posed operator equations -- such as coefficient identification in partial differential…

In this article we first establish the maximum principle of the antisymmetric functions for parabolic fractional $p$-equations. Then we use it and the parabolic inequalities to provide a different proof of symmetry and monotonicity for…

We study a singular elliptic problem driven by a mixed local-nonlocal operator of the form \begin{equation*} \begin{aligned} -\Delta_p u + (-\Delta_q)^s u &= \frac{\lambda}{u^{\delta}} + u^r \text{ in } \Omega\newline u > 0 \text{ in }…

The main goal of this paper is to show how some monotonicity methods related with the subdifferential of suitable convex functions and its extensions as m-accretive operators in Banach spaces lead to new and unexpected results showing, for…

We study second-order hyperbolic equations with degenerate elliptic operators and non-homogeneous Dirichlet boundary inputs. We establish existence and regularity of weak solutions in weighted Sobolev spaces under mild assumptions on the…

This monograph presents a comprehensive treatment of second order divergence form elliptic operators with bounded measurable t-independent coefficients in spaces of fractional smoothness, in Besov and weighted Sobolev classes. We establish…

We consider positive solutions, possibly unbounded, to the semilinear equation $-\Delta u=f(u)$ on continuous epigraphs bounded from below. Under the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition, we prove new monotonicity results for $u$, when…

This paper concerns the inclusion of Newton's method into an adaptive finite element method (FEM) for the solution of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). It features an adaptive choice of the damping parameter in the Newton…
