Non-Euclidean plates are thin elastic bodies having no stress-free configuration, hence exhibiting residual stresses in the absence of external constraints. These bodies are endowed with a three-dimensional reference metric, which may not…

A thin flat rectangular plate supported on its edges and subjected to in-plane loading exhibits stable post-buckling behaviour. However, the introduction of a nonlinear (softening) elastic foundation may cause the response to become…

We study elliptic gradient systems with fractional laplacian operators on the whole space $$ (- \Delta)^\mathbf s \mathbf u =\nabla H (\mathbf u) \ \ \text{in}\ \ \mathbf{R}^n,$$ where $\mathbf u:\mathbf{R}^n\to \mathbf{R}^m$, $H\in…

On a manifold $(\mathbb{R}^n, e^{2u} |dx|^2)$, we say $u$ is normal if the $Q$-curvature equation that $u$ satisfies $(-\Delta)^{\frac{n}{2}} u = Q_g e^{nu}$ can be written as the integral form $u(x)=\frac{1}{c_n}\int_{\mathbb…

The composite plate problem is an eigenvalue optimization problem related to the fourth order operator $(-\Delta)^2$. In this paper we continue the study started in [10], focusing on symmetry and rigidity issues in the case of the hinged…

A circular von Karman plate is considered bonded at its boundary to a circular Kirchhoff rod via a hinge like junction. There is a mismatch of dimension between the rod and the plate boundary in their respective stress free configurations.…

We define a discrete Laplace-Beltrami operator for simplicial surfaces. It depends only on the intrinsic geometry of the surface and its edge weights are positive. Our Laplace operator is similar to the well known finite-elements Laplacian…

We develop a stabilized discrete Laplace-Beltrami operator that is used to compute an approximate mean curvature vector which enjoys convergence of order one in L2. The stabilization is of gradient jump type and we consider both standard…

We study finite total curvature solutions of the Liouville equation $\Delta u+e^{2u}=0$ on a complete surface $(M,g)$ with nonnegative Gauss curvature. It turns out that the asymptotic behavior of the solution separates two extremal cases:…

This paper is addressed to a stabilization problem of a system coupled by a wave and a Euler-Bernoulli plate equation. Only one equation is supposed to be damped. Under some assumption about the damping and the coupling terms, it is shown…

Given a smooth function $f(x)$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ which is positive somewhere and satisfies $f(x)=O(|x|^{-l})$ for any $l>\frac{n}{2}$, we show that there exists a complete and conformal metric $g=e^{2u}|dx|^2$ with finite total Q-curvature…

Let $n\ge 25$ be an integer. In this paper, we construct a smooth metric $g_{0}$ on $\mathbb{S}^n$ with the property that the set of metrics in the conformal class of $g_{0}$ having positive scalar curvature and positive constant quotient…

We consider the problem of prescribing Gaussian and geodesic curvatures for a conformal metric on the unit disk. This is equivalent to solving the following P.D.E. \begin{equation*}\begin{cases}-\Delta u=2K(z)e^u&\hbox{in}\;\mathbb{D}^2,\\…

Given a compact four dimensional manifold, we prove existence of conformal metrics with constant $Q$-curvature under generic assumptions. The problem amounts to solving a fourth-order nonlinear elliptic equation with variational structure.…

Let $(M,g)$ be a two dimensional compact Riemannian manifold of genus $g(M)>1$. Let $f$ be a smooth function on $M$ such that $$f \ge 0, \quad f\not\equiv 0, \quad \min_M f = 0. $$ Let $p_1,\ldots,p_n$ be any set of points at which…

The model under consideration is a semi-infinite two-dimensional two-component plasma (Coulomb gas), stable against bulk collapse for the dimensionless coupling constant $\beta<2$, in contact with a dielectric wall of dielectric constant…

We study the Euler-Lagrange equation for several natural functionals defined on a conformal class of almost Hermitian metrics, whose expression involves the Lee form $\theta$ of the metric. We show that the Gauduchon metrics are the unique…

We consider periodic homogenization of boundary value problems for second-order semilinear elliptic systems in 2D of the type $$ \partial_{x_i}\left(a_{ij}^{\alpha…

In this paper we study positive solutions to problem involving the fractional Laplacian $(E)$ $(-\Delta)^{\alpha} u(x)+|u|^{p-1}u(x)=0 in x\in\Omega\setminus\mathcal{C}$, subject to the conditions $u(x)=0$ $x\in\Omega^c$ and…

For a hypersurface V of a conformal space, we introduce a conformal differential invariant I = h^2/g, where g and h are the first and the second fundamental forms of V connected by the apolarity condition. This invariant is called the…
