In this paper, we apply our minimax theory ([4], [5], [6]) with the one developed by A. Moameni in [2] to formalize a general scheme giving the multiplicity of critical points. Here is a sample of application of the scheme to a critical…

We study the set of continuous functions that admit no spurious local optima (i.e. local minima that are not global minima) which we term \textit{global functions}. They satisfy various powerful properties for analyzing nonconvex and…

We consider the existence of solutions of the following $p(x)$-Laplacian Dirichlet problem without the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition: $-\mbox{div}(|\nabla u|^{p(x)-2}\nabla u)=f(x,u) \text{ in }\Omega,$ and $u=0,\text{ on }\partial…

It has been argued that many non-perturbative phenomena in quantum mechanics (QM) and quantum field theory (QFT) are determined by complex field configurations, and that these contributions should be understood in terms of of…

We establish the existence of an entire solution for a class of stationary Schr\"{o}dinger equations with subcritical discontinuous nonlinearity and lower bounded potential that blows-up at infinity. The abstract framework is related to…

We develop arguments on the critical point theory for locally Lipschitz functionals on Orlicz-Sobolev spaces, along with convexity and compactness techniques to investigate existence of solution of the multivalued equation $\displaystyle -…

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, a general hybrid fixed point theorem for the contractive mappings in generalized Banach spaces is proved via measure of weak non-compactness and it is further applied to fractional integral equations for proving the existence…

We prove the main conjecture from [M. R. Douglas, B. Shiffman and S. Zelditch, Critical points and supersymmetric vacua, II: Asymptotics and extremal metrics. J. Differential Geom. 72 (2006), no. 3, 381-427] concerning the metric dependence…

We generalize the Bartsch-Li's splitting lemma at infinity for $C^2$-functionals in [2] and some later variants of it to a class of continuously directional differentiable functionals on Hilbert spaces. Different from the previous flow…

We establish common fixed point theorems for two pairs of weakly compatible self-mappings using an auxiliary function of two variables. Unlike classical results, our theorems do not assume continuity of the mappings and require completeness…

This work proposes an implementable proximal-type method for a broad class of optimization problems involving nonsmooth and nonconvex objective and constraint functions. In contrast to existing methods that rely on an ad hoc model…

We obtain an equivariant index theorem, or Lefschetz fixed-point formula, for isometries from complete Riemannian manifolds to themselves. The fixed-point set of such an isometry may be noncompact. We build on techniques developed by Roe.…

One of the major difficulties in nonlinear elliptic problems involving critical nonlinearities is the compactness of Palais-Smale sequences. In their celebrated work \cite{BN}, Br\'ezis and Nirenberg introduced the notion of critical level…

A classical result due to Levinson characterizes the existence of non-zero functions defined on a circle vanishing on an open subset of the circle in terms of the pointwise decay of their Fourier coefficients [13]. We prove certain analogue…

In this article we introduce and study a natural form of expansivity, that we call \textit{metric-independent expansiveness}, for group actions on metrizable spaces. This notion means \textit{expansive with respect to every compatible…

We prove that every continuous mapping from a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $X$ into $\mathbb{R}^{m}$ can be uniformly approximated by $C^\infty$ smooth mappings {\em with no critical points}. This kind of result can be…

We prove two versions of a global implicit function theorem, which involve no loss of derivative, for Keller's $ C_c^1 $-mappings between arbitrary Fr\'{e}chet spaces. Subsequently, within this framework, we apply these theorems to…

In this paper, we consider a time independent $C^2$ Hamiltonian, sa\-tisfying the usual hypothesis of the classical Calculus of Variations, on a non-compact connected manifold. Using the Lax-Oleinik semigroup, we give a proof of the…

We adapt a technique of nonsmooth critical point theory developed by Degiovanni-Zani for a semilinear problem involving the Laplacian to the the case of the $p$-Laplacian. We suppose only coercivity conditions on the potential and impose no…
