We use a variant of the fountain Theorem to prove the existence of infinitely many weak solutions for the following fractional p-Laplace equation (-Δ)^{s}_{p}u+V(x)|u|^{p-2}u=f(x,u) in R^N, where $s \in (0,1)$,$ p \geq 2$,$ N \geq 2$, $(-Δ)^{s}_{p}$ is the fractional $p$-Laplace operator, the nonlinearity f is $p$-superlinear at infinity and the potential V(x) is allowed to be sign-changing.
In this paper, we study the multiplicity of positive solutions for the p-Laplacian systems with sign-changing weight functions. Using the decomposition of the Nehari manifold, we prove that an elliptic system has at least two positive solutions.
We prove the existence of at least two positive solutions for the Laplacian system(E?)On a bounded region by using the Nehari manifold and the fibering maps associated with the Euler functional for the system.
In this paper, we consider a fractional p-Laplacian system with both concave-convex nonlinearities and sign-changing weight functions in bounded domains. With the help of the Nehari\ manifold, we prove that the system has at least two nontrivial solutions when the pair of the parameters $(λ,μ)$ belongs to a certain subset of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$
In this work, the following fractional Laplacian problem with pure critical nonlinearity is considered \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} (-Δ)^{s} u=|u|^{\frac{4s}{N-2s}}u, &\mbox{in}\ \mathbb{R}^N, \\ u\in \mathcal{D}^{s,2}(\mathbb{R}^N), \end{array} \right. \end{equation*} where $s\in (0,1)$, $N$ is a positive integer with $N\geq 3$, $(-Δ)^{s}$ is the fractional Laplacian operator. We will prove that this problem has infinitely many non-radial sign-changing solutions.
In this paper we study the existence of a least energy sign-changing solution to a nonlocal elliptic PDE involving singularity by using the Nehari manifold method, the constraint variational method and Brouwer degree theory.
In this paper, we study the existence of three solutions for a Kirchhoff equation involving the nonlocal fractional p-Laplacian considering Sobolev and Hardy nonlinearities at subcritical and critical growths. The proof is based on Mountain Pass Theorem, Ekeland's variational principle and constrained minimization in Nehari sets.
In this paper we study the nonlinear elliptic problem involving p(x)-Laplacian with nonsmooth potential, where the weighted function may change sign. By using critical point theory for locally Lipschitz functionals due to Chang, we obtain conditions which ensure the existence of a solution for our problem.
In this paper, we study the existence of least energy sign-changing solutions for a Kirchhoff-type problem involving the fractional Laplacian operator. By using the constraint variational method and quantitative deformation lemma, we obtain a least energy nodal solution ub for the given problem. Moreover, we show that the energy of ub is strictly larger than twice the ground state energy. We also give a convergence property of u_b as b goes to 0, where b is regarded as a parameter.
We study the existence of least energy sign-changing solution for the fractional equation $(-Δ)^{s} u=|u|^{2_{s}^{*}-2}u+λf(x,u)$ in a smooth bounded domain $Ω$ of $\mathbb{R}^{N},$ $u=0$ in $\mathbb{R}^{N}\setminus Ω$, where $s\in (0,1)$ and $2_{s}^{*}$ is the fractional critical Sobolev exponent. The proof is based on constrained minimization in a subset of Nehari manifold, containing all the possible sign-changing solutions of the equation.
In this paper, we consider the following Schrödinger-Poisson system with $p$-laplacian \begin{equation} \begin{cases} -Δ_{p}u+V(x)|u|^{p-2}u+ϕ|u|^{p-2}u=f(u)\qquad&x\in\mathbb{R}^{3},\newline -Δϕ=|u|^{p}&x\in\mathbb{R}^{3}. \end{cases}\notag \end{equation} We investigate the existence of multiple sign-changing solutions. By using the method of invariant sets of descending flow, we prove that this system has infinitely many sign-changing solutions. This system is new one coupled by Schrödinger equation of $p$-laplacian with a Poisson equation. Our results complement the study made by Zhaoli Liu…
We prove several classification results for $p$-Laplacian problems on bounded and unbounded domains, and deal with qualitative properties of sign-changing solutions to $p$-Laplacian equations on $\mathbb R^N$ involving critical nonlinearities. Moreover, on radial domains we characterise the compactness of possibly sign-changing Palais-Smale sequences.
In a recent paper D. D. Hai showed that the equation $ -Δ_{p} u = λf(u) \mbox{in} Ω$, under Dirichlet boundary condition, where $Ω\subset {\bf R^N}$ is a bounded domain with smooth boundary $\partialΩ$, $Δ_{p}$ is the p-Laplacian, $f : (0,\infty) \rightarrow {\bf R} $ is a continuous function which may blow up to $\pm \infty$ at the origin, admits a solution if $λ> λ_0$ and has no solution if $0 < λ< λ_0$. In this paper we show that the solution set $\mathcal{S}$ of the equation above, which is not empty by Hai's results, actually admits a continuum of positive solutions.
In this paper, we shall establish a Dancer-type unilateral global bifurcation result for a class of quasilinear elliptic problems with sign-changing weight. Under some natural hypotheses on perturbation function, we show that $(μ_k^ν(p),0)$ is a bifurcation point of the above problems and there are two distinct unbounded continua, $(\mathcal{C}_{k}^ν)^+$ and $(\mathcal{C}_{k}^ν)^-$, consisting of the bifurcation branch $\mathcal{C}_{k}^ν$ from $(μ_k^ν(p), 0)$, where $μ_k^ν(p)$ is the $k$-th positive or negative eigenvalue of the linear problem corresponding to the above problems, $ν\in\{+,-\}$…
In this paper, we prove a maximum principle for the $p$-Laplacian with a sign-changing weight. As an application of this maximum principle, we study the existence of one-sign solutions for a class of quasilinear elliptic problems.
In this paper we prove the existence of an optimal set for the minimization of the $k$-th variational eigenvalue of the $p$-Laplacian among $p$-quasi open sets of fixed measure included in a box of finite measure. An analogous existence result is obtained for eigenvalues of the $p$-Laplacian associated with Schrödinger potentials. In order to deal with these nonlinear shape optimization problems, we develop a general approach which allows to treat the continuous dependence of the eigenvalues of the $p$-Laplacian associated with sign-changing capacitary measures under $γ$-convergence.
In this paper, we consider a p-Laplacian equation in {R}^{N}with sign-changing potential and subcritical p-superlinear nonlinearity. By using the cohomological linking method for cones developed by Degiovanni and Lancelotti in 2007, an existence result is obtained. We also give a result on the existence of periodic solutions for one-dimensional $p$-Laplacian equations which can be proved by the same method.
An existence and uniqueness result to evolution equations with sign-changing pseudo-differential operators and its applications to logarithmic Laplacian operators and second-order differential operators without ellipticity
In 2009 Loc and Schmitt established a result on sufficient conditions for multiplicity of solutions of a class of nonlinear eignvalue problems for the p-Laplace operator under Dirichlet boundary conditions, extending an earlier result of 1981 by Peter Hess for the Laplacian. Results on necessary conditions for existence were also established. In the present paper the authors extend the main results by Loc and Schmitt to the $Φ$-Laplacian. To overcome the difficulties with this much more general operator it was necessary to employ regularity results by Lieberman, a strong maximum principle by P…
We collect some peculiarities of higher-order fractional Laplacians $(-Δ)^s$, $s>1$, with special attention to the range $s\in(1,2)$, which show their oscillatory nature. These include the failure of the polarization and Pólya-Szegö inequalities and the explicit example of a domain with sign-changing first eigenfunction. In spite of these fluctuating behaviours, we prove how the Faber-Krahn inequality still holds for any $s>1$ in dimension one.
We establish the existence of multiple sign-changing solutions to the quasilinear critical problem $$-Δ_{p} u=|u|^{p^*-2}u, \qquad u\in D^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^{N}),$$ for $N\geq4$, where $Δ_{p}u:=\mathrm{div}(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u)$ is the $p$-Laplace operator, $1<p<N$ and $p^*:=\frac{Np}{N-p}$ is the critical Sobolev exponent
We study the nonlinear eigenvalue problem for the p-Laplacian, and more general problem constituting the Fucik spectrum. We are interested in some vanishing properties of sign changing solutions to these problems. Our method is applicable in the plane.
In this paper we prove existence and multiplicity of positive and sign-changing solutions to the pure critical exponent problem for the $p$-Laplacian operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions on a bounded domain having nontrivial topology and discrete symmetry. Pioneering works related to the case $p=2$ are H. Brezis and L. Nirenberg [4], J.-M. Coron [10], and A. Bahri and J.-M. Coron [3]. A global compactness analysis is given for the Palais-Smale sequences in the presence of symmetries.
A Dirichlet problem driven by the $(p,q)$-Laplace operator and an asymmetric concave reaction with positive parameter is investigated. Four nontrivial smooth solutions (two positive, one negative, and the remaining nodal) are obtained once the parameter turns out to be sufficiently small. Under a oddness condition near the origin for the perturbation, a whole sequence of sign-changing solutions, which converges to zero, is produced.
We consider the following critical semilinear nonlocal equation involving the fractional Laplacian $$ (-Δ)^su=K(|x|)|u|^{2^*_s-2}u,\ \ \hbox{in}\ \ \mathbb{R}^N, $$ where $K(|x|)$ is a positive radial function, $N>2+2s$, $0<s<1$, and $2^*_s=\frac{2N}{N-2s}$. Under some asymptotic assumptions on $K(x)$ at an extreme point, we show that this problem has infinitely many non-radial positive or sign-changing solutions.
This article consists of study of anisotropic double phase problems with singular term and sign changing subcritical as well as critical nonlinearity. Seeking the help of well known Nehari manifold technique, we establish existence of at least two opposite sign energy solutions in the subcritical case and one negative energy solution in the critical case. The results in the critical case is even new in the classical $p$-Laplacian case.
In this paper, we consider the existence of localized sign-changing solutions for the $p-$Laplacian nonlinear Schrödinger equation $$ -ε^pΔ_pu+V(x)|u|^{p-2}u=|u|^{p^*-2}u+μ|u|^{q-2}u,~~u\in W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^N), $$ where $1<p<N$, $p_N=\max\{p,p^*-1\}<q<p^*=\frac{Np}{N-p}$, $μ>0$, $Δ_p$ is the $p-$Laplacian operator. By using the penalization method together with the truncation method and a blow-up argument, we establish for small $ε$ the existence of a sequence of localized nodal solutions concentrating near a given local minimum point of the potential function.
We study a $p$-Laplacian equation involving a parameter $λ$ and a concave-convex nonlinearity containing a weight which can change sign. By using the Nehari manifold and the fibering method, we show the existence of two positive solutions on some interval $(0,λ^*+\varepsilon)$, where $λ^*$ can be characterized variationally. We also study the asymptotic behavior of solutions when $λ\downarrow 0$.
In this paper we deal with the multiplicity of positive solutions to the fractional Laplacian equation \begin{equation*} (-Δ)^{\fracα{2}} u=λf(x)|u|^{q-2}u+|u|^{2^{*}_α-2}u, \quad\text{in}\,\,Ω, u=0,\text{on}\,\,\partialΩ, \end{equation*} where $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^{N}(N\geq 2)$ is a bounded domain with smooth boundary, $0<α<2$, $(-Δ)^{\fracα{2}}$ stands for the fractional Laplacian operator, $f\in C(Ω\times\mathbb{R},\mathbb{R})$ may be sign changing and $λ$ is a positive parameter. We will prove that there exists $λ_{*}>0$ such that the problem has at least two positive solutions for each $λ…
We consider the fractional elliptic inequality with variable-exponent nonlinearity $$ (-Δ)^{\fracα{2}} u+λ\, Δu \geq |u|^{p(x)}, \quad x\in\mathbb{R}^N, $$ where $N\geq 1$, $α\in (0,2)$, $λ\in\mathbb{R}$ is a constant, $p: \mathbb{R}^N\to (1,\infty)$ is a measurable function, and $(-Δ)^{\fracα{2}}$ is the fractional Laplacian operator of order $\fracα{2}$. A Liouville-type theorem is established for the considered problem. Namely, we obtain sufficient conditions under which the only weak solution is the trivial one. Next, we extend our study to systems of fractional elliptic inequalities with …
Let $Ω\subset\mathbb{R}^{n}$ be a smooth bounded domain and $m\in C(\overlineΩ)$ be a sign-changing weight function. For $1<p<\infty$, consider the eigenvalue problem $$ \left\{ \begin{array} [c]{ll} -Δ_{p}u=λm(x)|u|^{p-2}u & \text{in }Ω,\\ u=0 & \text{on }\partialΩ, \end{array} \right. $$ where $Δ_{p}u$ is the usual $p$-Laplacian. Our purpose in this article is to study the limit as $p\rightarrow\infty$ for the eigenvalues $λ_{k,p}\left( m\right) $ of the aforementioned problem. In addition, we describe the limit of some normalized associated eigenfunctions when $k=1$.
In this note we prove the Payne-type conjecture about the behaviour of the nodal set of least energy sign-changing solutions for the equation $-Δ_p u = f(u)$ in bounded Steiner symmetric domains $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^N$ under the zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. The nonlinearity $f$ is assumed to be either superlinear or resonant. In the latter case, least energy sign-changing solutions are second eigenfunctions of the zero Dirichlet $p$-Laplacian in $Ω$. We show that the nodal set of any least energy sign-changing solution intersects the boundary of $Ω$. The proof is based on a moving polar…
In this paper, we are concerned with the existence of the least energy sign-changing solutions for the following fractional Schrödinger-Poisson system: \begin{align*} \left\{ \begin{aligned} &(-Δ)^{s} u+V(x)u+λϕ(x)u=f(x, u),\quad &\text{in}\, \ \mathbb{R}^{3},\\ &(-Δ)^{t}ϕ=u^{2},& \text{in}\,\ \mathbb{R}^{3}, \end{aligned} \right. \end{align*} where $λ\in \mathbb{R}^{+}$ is a parameter, $s, t\in (0, 1)$ and $4s+2t>3$, $(-Δ)^{s}$ stands for the fractional Laplacian. By constraint variational method and quantitative deformation lemma, we prove that the above problem has one least energy sign-cha…
We study the asymptotic and qualitative properties of least energy radial sign-changing solutions to fractional semilinear elliptic problems of the form \[ \begin{cases} (-Δ)^s u = |u|^{2^*_s-2-\varepsilon}u &\text{in } B_R, \\ u = 0 &\text{in }\mathbb{R}^n \setminus B_R, \end{cases} \] where $s \in (0,1)$, $(-Δ)^s$ is the s-Laplacian, $B_R$ is a ball of $\mathbb{R}^n$, $2^*_s := \frac{2n}{n-2s}$ is the critical Sobolev exponent and $\varepsilon>0$ is a small parameter. We prove that such solutions have the limit profile of a "tower of bubbles", as $ \varepsilon \to 0^+$, i.e. the positive and…
In this paper, we apply blow-up analysis and Liouville type theorems to study pointwise a priori estimates for some quasilinear equations with p-Laplace operator. We first obtain pointwise interior estimates for the gradient of p-harmonic function, i.e., the solution of $Δ_{p}u=0,\ x\inΩ$, which extends the well-established results of the interior estimates of the gradient of harmonic function. We then get singularity and decay estimates of the sign changing solution of Lane-Emden-Fowler type p-Laplace equation $-Δ_{p}u=|u|^{λ-1}u, \ x\inΩ$, which are then generalized for the equation with gen…
We investigate the existence of nodal (sign-changing) solutions to the Dirichlet problem for two-parametric family of partially homogeneous $(p,q)$-Laplace equations $-Δ_p u -Δ_q u=α|u|^{p-2}u+β|u|^{q-2}u$ where $p \neq q$. By virtue of the Nehari manifolds, linking theorem, and descending flow, we explicitly characterize subsets of $(α,β)$-plane which correspond to the existence of nodal solutions. In each subset the obtained solutions have prescribed signs of energy and, in some cases, exactly two nodal domains. The nonexistence of nodal solutions is also studied. Additionally, we explore se…
The present paper studies the fractional $p$-Laplacian boundary value problems with jumping nonlinearities at zero or infinity and obtain the existence of multiple solutions and sign-changing solutions by constructing the suitable pseudo-gradient vector field of the corresponding energy functional.
We study the existence of {weak} solutions for fractional elliptic equations of the type, \begin{equation*} (-Δ)^{\frac{1}{2}} u+ V(x) u= h(u), u> 0 \;\textrm{in} \;\mathbb R, \end{equation*} %where $1<q<2,\;p>2,\;1<β\leq2\;, λ>0, K(x)>0, f$ is continuous and sign changing. where $h$ is a real valued function that behaves like $e^{u^2}$ as $u\rightarrow \infty$ and $V(x)$ is a positive, continuous unbounded function. Here $(-Δ)^{\frac{1}{2}}$ is the fractional Laplacian operator. We show the existence of mountain-pass solution when the nonlinearity is superlinear near $t=0$. We also study the …
In this paper, we study the existence of ground state solutions to the following p-Laplacian equation in some dimension $N\geq3$ with an $L^2$ constraint: \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -Δ_{p}u+{\vert u\vert}^{p-2}u=f(u)-μu \quad \text{ in } \mathbb{R}^N,\\ {\Vert u\Vert}^2_{L^2(\mathbb{R}^N)}=m,\\ u\in W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)\cap L^2(\mathbb{R}^N), \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $-Δ_{p}u=div\left( {\vert\nabla u\vert}^{p-2}\nabla u \right)$, $2\leq p<N$, $f\in C(\mathbb{R},\mathbb{R})$, $m>0$, $μ\in\mathbb{R}$ will appear as a Lagrange multiplier and the continuous nonlinearity $f$ satisfie…
We study the Dirichlet problem on a bounded convex domain of $\mathbb R^N$, with zero boundary data, for truncated Laplacians ${\mathcal P}_k^\pm$, with $k<N$. We establish a necessary and sufficient condition (Theorem 1) in terms of the "flatness" of domains for existence of a solution for general inhomogeneous term. This result, in particular, shows that the strict convexity of the domain is sufficient for the solvability of the Dirichlet problem. The result and related ideas are applied to the solvability of the Dirichlet problem for the operator ${\mathcal P}_k^+$ with lower order term whe…
We consider the following class of fractional Schrödinger equations $$ (-Δ)^α u + V(x)u = K(x) f(u) \mbox{in} \mathbb{R}^{N} $$ where $α\in (0, 1)$, $N>2α$, $(-Δ)^α$ is the fractional Laplacian, $V$ and $K$ are positive continuous functions which vanish at infinity, and $f$ is a continuous function. By using a minimization argument and a quantitative deformation lemma, we obtain the existence of a sign-changing solution. Furthermore, when $f$ is odd, we prove that the above problem admits infinitely many nontrivial solutions. Our result extends to the fractional framework some well-known theor…
In this paper we prove the existence of infinitely many nontrivial solutions of the following equations driven by a nonlocal integro-differential operator $L_K$ with concave-convex nonlinearities and homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions \begin{eqnarray*} \mathcal{L}_{K} u + μ\, |u|^{q-1}u + λ\,|u|^{p-1}u &=& 0 \quad\text{in}\quad Ω, \\[2mm] u&=&0 \quad\mbox{in}\quad\mathbb{R}^N\setminusΩ, \end{eqnarray*} where $Ω$ is a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$, $N>2s$, $s\in(0, 1)$, $0<q<1<p\leq \frac{N+2s}{N-2s}$. Moreover, when $L_K$ reduces to the fractional laplacian operator $-(-Δ)^s $…
In this paper, we obtain nonexistence results of positive solutions, and also the existence of an unbounded sequence of solutions that changing sign for some critical problems involving conformally invariant operators on the standard unit sphere, and the fractional Laplacian operator in the Euclidean space. Our arguments are based on a reduction of the initial problem in the Euclidean space to an equivalent problem on the standard unit sphere and vice versa, what together to blow up arguments, a variant of Pohozaev's type identity, a refinement of regularity results for this type operators, an…
In this article, we study the following $p$-fractional Laplacian equation \begin{equation*} (P_{\la}) \left\{ \begin{array}{lr} - 2\int_{\mb R^n}\frac{|u(y)-u(x)|^{p-2}(u(y)-u(x))}{|x-y|^{n+p\al}} dy = \la |u(x)|^{p-2}u(x) + b(x)|u(x)|^{\ba-2}u(x)\; \text{in}\; \Om \quad \quad\quad\quad \quad\quad\quad\quad\quad \quad u = 0 \; \mbox{in}\; \mb R^n \setminus\Om,\quad u\in W^{\al,p}(\mb R^n).\\ \end{array} \quad \right. \end{equation*} where $\Om$ is a bounded domain in $\mb R^n$ with smooth boundary, $n> p\al$, $p\geq 2$, $\al\in(0,1)$, $\la>0$ and $b:\Om\subset\mb R^n \ra \mb R$ is a sign-chang…
We provide closed formulas for (unique) solutions of nonhomogeneous Dirichlet problems on balls involving any positive power $s>0$ of the Laplacian. We are able to prescribe values outside the domain and boundary data of different orders using explicit Poisson-type kernels and a new notion of higher-order boundary operator, which recovers normal derivatives if $s$ is a natural number. Our results unify and generalize previous approaches in the study of polyharmonic operators and fractional Laplacians. As applications, we show a novel characterization of $s$-harmonic functions in terms of Marti…
Let $Ω$ be an open, possibly unbounded, set in Euclidean space $\R^m$ with boundary $\partialΩ,$ let $A$ be a measurable subset of $Ω$ with measure $|A|$, and let $γ\in (0,1)$. We investigate whether the solution $v_{\Om,A,γ}$ of $-Δv=γ{\bf 1}_{Ω\setminus A}-(1-γ){\bf 1}_{A}$ with $v=0$ on $\partial Ω$ changes sign. Bounds are obtained for $|A|$ in terms of geometric characteristics of $\Om$ (bottom of the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian, torsion, measure, or $R$-smoothness of the boundary) such that ${\rm essinf} v_{\Om,A,γ}\ge 0$. We show that ${\rm essinf} v_{\Om,A,γ}<0$ for any measura…
This article deals with the study of the following nonlinear doubly nonlocal equation: \begin{equation*} (-Δ)^{s_1}_{p}u+\ba(-Δ)^{s_2}_{q}u = \la a(x)|u|^{δ-2}u+ b(x)|u|^{r-2} u,\; \text{ in }\; \Om, \; u=0 \text{ on } \mathbb{R}^n\setminus \Om, \end{equation*} where $\Om$ is a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with smooth boundary, $1< \de \le q\leq p<r \leq p^{*}_{s_1}$, with $p^{*}_{s_1}=\ds \frac{np}{n-ps_1}$, $0<s_2 < s_1<1$, $n> p s_1$ and $\la, \ba>0$ are parameters. Here $a\in L^{\frac{r}{r-\de}}(\Om)$ and $b\in L^{\infty}(\Om)$ are sign changing functions. We prove the $L^\infty$ estim…
We study the asymptotic behavior, as $λ\rightarrow 0$, of least energy radial sign-changing solutions $u_λ$, of the Brezis-Nirenberg problem \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -Δu = λu + |u|^{2^* -2}u & \hbox{in}\ B_1\\ u=0 & \hbox{on}\ \partial B_1, \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $λ>0$, $2^*=\frac{2n}{n-2}$ and $B_1$ is the unit ball of $\R^n$, $n\geq 7$. We prove that both the positive and negative part $u_λ^+$ and $u_λ^-$ concentrate at the same point (which is the center) of the ball with different concentration speeds. Moreover we show that suitable rescalings of $u_λ^+$ and $u_λ^-$ conve…
We prove the existence of one positive, one negative, and one sign-changing solution of a $p$-Laplacian equation on $\mathbb{R}^N$, with a $p$-superlinear subcritical term. Sign-changing solutions of quasilinear elliptic equations set on the whole of $\mathbb{R}^N$ have only been scarcely investigated in the literature. Our assumptions here are similar to those previously used by some authors in bounded domains, and our proof uses fairly elementary critical point theory, based on constraint minimization on the nodal Nehari set. The lack of compactness due to the unbounded domain is overcome by…
In this paper, we use bifurcation method to investigate the existence and multiplicity of one-sign solutions of the $p$-Laplacian involving a linear/superlinear nonlinearity with zeros. To do this, we first establish a bifurcation theorem from infinity for nonlinear operator equation with homogeneous operator. To deal with the superlinear case, we establish several topological results involving superior limit.
In this paper we study the fractional p(., .)-Laplacian and we introduce the corresponding nonlocal conormal derivative for this operator. We prove basic properties of the corresponding function space and we establish a nonlocal version of the divergence theorem for such operators. In the second part of this paper, we prove the existence of weak solutions of corresponding p(., .)-Robin boundary problems with sign-changing potentials by applying variational tools.
