We investigate existence and uniqueness of solutions to second-order elliptic boundary value problems containing a power nonlinearity applied to a fractional Laplacian. We detect the critical power separating the existence from the non-existence regimes. For the existence results, we make use of a particular class of weighted Sobolev spaces to compensate boundary singularities which are naturally built in the problem.
We prove global existence and modified scattering for the solutions of the Cauchy problem to the fractional Korteweg-de Vries equation with cubic nonlinearity for small, smooth and localized initial data.
By using a suitable topological argument based on cohomological linking and by exploiting a Trudinger-Moser inequality in fractional spaces recently obtained, we prove existence of multiple solutions for a problem involving the nonlinear fractional laplacian and a related critical exponential nonlinearity. This extends results in the literature for the N-Laplacian operator.
We consider the Cauchy problem for heat equation with fractional Laplacian and exponential nonlinearity. We establish local well-posedness result in Orlicz spaces. We derive the existence of global solutions for small initial data. We obtain decay estimates for large time in Lebesgue spaces.
This article concerns about the existence of a positive SOLA (Solutions Obtained as Limits of Approximations) for the following singular critical Choquard problem involving fractional power of Laplacian and a critical Hardy potential.
We consider a fractional Schrödinger-Poisson system with a general nonlinearity in subcritical and critical case. The Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition is not required. By using a perturbation approach, we prove the existence of positive solutions. Moreover, we study the asymptotics of solutions for a vanishing parameter.
In this paper, we study the existence of solutions for the new fractinal Robin equations with variable exponents. Moreover, we deal with the logarithm-type nonlinearity. In particular, we consider two cases: critical and subcritical cases.
We study the existence of ground states to a nonlinear fractional Kirchhoff equation with an external potential $V$. Under suitable assumptions on $V$, using the monotonicity trick and the profile decomposition, we prove the existence of ground states. In particular, the nonlinearity does not satisfy the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz type condition or monotonicity assumptions.
We find a solution of a quasilinear elliptic equation with Dirichlet's boundary condition on a smooth bounded domain and involving an unbounded continuous nonlinearity with oscillatory behavior near the origin.
We investigate the existence of solutions to the fractional nonlinear Schrödinger equation $(-Δ)^s u = f(u)$ with prescribed $L^2$-norm $\int_{\mathbb{R}^N} |u|^2 \, dx =m$ in the Sobolev space $H^s(\mathbb{R}^N)$. Under fairly general assumptions on the nonlinearity $f$, we prove the existence of a ground state solution and a multiplicity result in the radially symmetric case.
We consider a Cauchy problem of energy-critical fractional Schrödinger equation with Hartree nonlinearity below the energy space. Using a method of randomization of functions on $\mathbb{R}^d$ associated with the Wiener decomposition, introduced by Á. Bényi, T. Oh, and O. Pocovnicu \cite{beohpo1,beohpo2}, we prove that the Cauchy problem is almost surely locally well-posed. Our result includes Hartree Schrödinger equation ($α= 2$).
In this paper, we are concerned with stable solutions to the fractional elliptic equation $$ (-Δ)^s u=e^u\mbox{ in }\mathbb R^{N}, $$ where $(-Δ)^s$ is the fractional Laplacian with $0<s<1$. We establish the nonexistence of stable solutions provided that $N<10s$. This result is optimal when $s\uparrow 1$.
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 note we complete the study made in a previous paper on a Kirchhoff type equation with a Berestycki-Lions nonlinearity. We also correct Theorem 0.6 inside.
We consider a semilinear elliptic equation in a bounded domain with zero boundary conditions. The nonlinearity is discontinuous and monotone, but it is not a Carathéodory's function. The existence theorem has been proved.
In this paper, we study the fractional Kirchhoff equation with critical nonlinearity \begin{align*} \left(a+b\int_{\mathbb R^N}|(-Δ)^{\frac{s}{2}}u|^2dx\right)(-Δ)^su+u=f(u)\ \ \mbox{in}\ \ \mathbb R^N, \end{align*} where $N>2s$ and $(-Δ)^s$ is the fractional Laplacian with $0<s<1$. By using a perturbation approach, we prove the existence of solutions to the above problem without the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition when the parameter $b$ small. What's more, we obtain the asymptotic behavior of solutions as $b\to 0$.
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.
We report on some recent existence and uniqueness results for elliptic equations subject to Dirichlet boundary condition and involving a singular nonlinearity. We take into account the following types of problems: (i) singular problems with sublinear nonlinearity and two parameters; (ii) combined effects of asymptotically linear and singular nonlinearities in bifurcation problems; (iii) bifurcation for a class of singular elliptic problems with subquadratic convection term. In some concrete situations we also establish the asymptotic behaviour of the solution around the bifurcation point. Our …
We investigate the homogeneous Dirichlet problem in uniformly convex domains for a large class of degenerate elliptic equations with singular zero order term. In particular we establish sharp existence and uniqueness results of positive viscosity solutions.
We consider the existence and multiplicity of solutions for a class of quasi-linear Schrödinger equations which include the modified nonlinear Schrödinger equations. A new perturbation approach is used to treat the sub-cubic nonlinearity.
In this paper we study existence of ground state solution to the following problem $$ (- Δ)^αu = g(u) \ \ \mbox{in} \ \ \mathbb{R}^{N}, \ \ u \in H^α(\mathbb R^N) $$ where $(-Δ)^α$ is the fractional Laplacian, $α\in (0,1)$. We treat both cases $N\geq2$ and $N=1$ with $α=1/2$. The function $g$ is a general nonlinearity of Berestycki-Lions type which is allowed to have critical growth: polynomial in case $N\geq2$, exponential if $N=1$.
In this paper, we study the following fractional Schrödinger equation: \[ \left\{\begin{gathered} {(- Δ)^s}u + mu = f(u){\text{in}}{\mathbb{R}^N}, \hfill u \in {H^s}({\mathbb{R}^N}),{\text{}}u > 0{\text{on}}{\mathbb{R}^N}, \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \right. \] where $m>0$, $N>2s$, ${(- Δ)^s}$, $s \in (0,1)$ is the fractional Laplacian. Using minimax arguments, we obtain a positive ground state solution under general conditions on $f$ which we believe to be almost optimal.
In this paper we consider the existence of positive solutions for a singular elliptic problem involving an asymtotically linear nonlinearity and depending on one positive parameter. Using variational methods, together with comparison techniques, we show the existence, uniqueness, non-existence and regularity of the solutions. We also obtain a bifurcation-type result.
In this paper, we prove the existence and regularity of weak positive solutions for a class of nonlinear elliptic equations with a singular nonlinearity, lower order terms and $L^{1}$ datum in the setting of variable exponent Sobolev spaces. We will prove that the lower order term has some regularizing effects on the solutions. This work generalizes some results given in \cite{1}.
This paper deals with the existence and the asymptotic behavior of non-negative solutions for a class of stationary Kirchhoff problems driven by a fractional integro-differential operator $\mathcal L_K$ and involving a critical nonlinearity. The main feature, as well as the main difficulty, of the analysis is the fact that the Kirchhoff function $M$ can be zero at zero, that is the problem is degenerate. The adopted techniques are variational and the main theorems extend in several directions previous results recently appeared in the literature.
We consider a parabolic-type PDE with a diffusion given by a fractional Laplacian operator and with a quadratic nonlinearity of the 'gradient' of the solution, convoluted with a singular term b. Our first result is the well-posedness for this problem: We show existence and uniqueness of a (local in time) mild solution. The main result is about blow-up of said solution, and in particular we find sufficient conditions on the initial datum and on the term b to ensure blow-up of the solution in finite time.
In this paper, we consider the nonlinear fractional Schrödinger equations with Hartree type nonlinearity. We obtain the existence of standing waves by studying the related constrained minimization problems by applying the concentration-compactness principle. Via symmetric decreasing rearrangements, we also show that the standing waves, up to a translations and phases, are positive symmetric nonincreasing functions. Moreover, we prove that the set of minimizers is a stable set for the initial value problem of the equations, that is, a solution whose initial data is near the set will remain near…
This article concerns the fractional elliptic equations \begin{equation*}(-Δ)^{s}u+λV(x)u=f(u), \quad u\in H^{s}(\mathbb{R}^N), \end{equation*}where $(-Δ)^{s}$ ($s\in (0\,,\,1)$) denotes the fractional Laplacian, $λ>0$ is a parameter, $V\in C(\mathbb{R}^N)$ and $V^{-1}(0)$ has nonempty interior. Under some mild assumptions, we establish the existence of nontrivial solutions. Moreover, the concentration of solutions is also explored on the set $V^{-1}(0)$ as $λ\to\infty$.
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.
In this article, we study the following fractional $p$-Laplacian equation with critical growth singular nonlinearity \begin{equation*} \quad (-\De_{p})^s u = \la u^{-q} + u^α, u>0 \; \text{in}\; \Om,\quad u = 0 \; \mbox{in}\; \mb R^n \setminus\Om. \end{equation*} where $\Om$ is a bounded domain in $\mb{R}^n$ with smooth boundary $\partial \Om$, $n > sp, s \in (0,1), \la >0, 0 < q \leq 1 $ and $α\le p^*_s-1$. We use variational methods to show the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions of above problem with respect to parameter $\la$.
In this paper, we consider a time-fractional reaction-diffusion system with the same nonlinearities of the Newton-Leipnik chaotic system. Through analytical tools and numerical results, we derive sufficient conditions for the asymptotic stability of the proposed model and show the existence of chaos. We also propose a nonlinear synchronization controller for a pair of systems and establish the local and global asymptotic convergence of the trajectories by means of fractional stability theory and the Lyapunov method.
We study a Dirichlet problem in the entire space for some nonlocal degenerate elliptic operators with internal nonlinearities. With very mild assumptions on the boundary datum, we prove existence and uniqueness of the solution in the viscosity sense. If we further assume uniform ellipticity then the solution is shown to be classical, and even smooth if both the operator and the boundary datum are smooth.
In the present paper we study the existence of solutions for some classes of singular systems involving the p(x) and q(x) Laplacian operators. The approach is based on bifurcation theory and subsupersolution method for systems of quasilinear equations involving singular terms.
By exploiting a suitable Trudinger-Moser inequality for fractional Sobolev spaces, we obtain existence and multiplicity of solutions for a class of one-dimensional nonlocal equations with fractional diffusion and nonlinearity at exponential growth.
We study the Cauchy problem for the fractional Schrödinger equation $$ i\partial_tu = (m^2-Δ)^\frac\alpha2 u + F(u) in \mathbb{R}^{1+n}, $$ where $ n \ge 1$, $m \ge 0$, $1 < α< 2$, and $F$ stands for the nonlinearity of Hartree type: $$F(u) = λ(\frac{ψ(\cdot)}{|\cdot|^γ} * |u|^2)u$$ with $λ= \pm1, 0 <γ< n$, and $0 \le ψ\in L^\infty(\mathbb R^n)$. We prove the existence and uniqueness of local and global solutions for certain $α$, $γ$, $λ$, $ψ$. We also remark on finite time blowup of solutions when $λ= -1$.
We study Cauchy problem for the Klein-Gordon (HNLKG), wave (HNLW) and Schrödinger (HNLS) equations with cubic convolution (Hartree type) nonlinearity. Some global well-posedness and scattering are obtained for the (HNLKG) and (HNLS) with small Cauchy data in some modulation spaces. Global well-posedness for fractional Schrödinger (fNLSH) equation with Hartree type nonlinearity is obtained with Cauchy data in some modulation spaces. Local well-posedness for (HNLW), (fHNLS) and (HNLKG) with rough data in modulation spaces is shown. This improves known results in Sobolev spaces in some sense. As …
We consider an elliptic problem with nonlinear boundary condition involving nonlinearity with superlinear and subcritical growth at infinity and a bifurcation parameter as a factor. We use re-scaling method, degree theory and continuation theorem to prove that there exists a connected branch of positive solutions bifurcating from infinity when the parameter goes to zero. Moreover, if the nonlinearity satisfies additional conditions near zero, we establish a global bifurcation result, and discuss the number of positive solution(s) with respect to the parameter using bifurcation theory and degre…
In this paper, based on some prior estimates, we show that the essential spectrum $λ=0$ is a bifurcation point for an superlinear elliptic equation with only local conditions, which generalizes a series of earlier results on an open problem proposed by C. A. Stuart in 1983 [Lecture Notes in Mathematics, 1017].
In this work, we study a quasilinear elliptic problem involving the 1-laplacian operator, with a discontinuous, superlinear and subcritical nonlinearity involving the Heaviside function $H(\cdot - β)$. Our approach is based on an analysis of the associated p-laplacian problem, followed by a thorough analysis of the asymptotic behaviour or such solutions as $p \to 1^+$. We study also the asymptotic behaviour of the solutions, as $β\to 0^+$ and we prove that it converges to a solution of the original problem, without the discontinuity in the nonlinearity.
In this paper, we study the following fractional Schrödinger-Poisson system \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \varepsilon^{2s}(-Δ)^su+V(x)u+ϕu=g(u) & \hbox{in $\mathbb{R}^3$,} \varepsilon^{2t}(-Δ)^tϕ=u^2,\,\, u>0& \hbox{in $\mathbb{R}^3$,} \end{array} \right. \end{equation*} where $s,t\in(0,1)$, $\varepsilon>0$ is a small parameter. Under some suitable assumptions on potential function $V(x)$ and critical nonlinearity term $g(u)$, we construct a family of positive solutions $u_{\varepsilon}\in H^s(\mathbb{R}^3)$ which concentrates around the global minima of $V$ as $\varepsilon\right…
In this paper we present a very simple proof of the existence of at least one non trivial solution for a Kirchhoff type equation on $\RN$, for $N\ge 3$. In particular, in the first part of the paper we are interested in studying the existence of a positive solution to the elliptic Kirchhoff equation under the effect of a nonlinearity satisfying the general Berestycki-Lions assumptions. In the second part we look for ground states using minimizing arguments on a suitable natural constraint.
In this paper, we use variational methods to prove the existence of positive solution for the following class of elliptic equation $$ -ε^{2}Δ{u}+V(z)u=f(u) \,\,\, \mbox{in} \,\,\, \mathbb{R}^{2}, $$ where $ε>0$ is a positive parameter, $V$ is a saddle-like potential and $f$ has an exponential critical growth.
We investigate the existence of infinitely many radially symmetric solutions to the following problem $$(-Δ_p)^s u=g(u) \ \ \textrm{ in } \ \ \mathbb{R}^N, \ \ u\in W^{s,p}(\mathbb{R}^N),$$ where $s\in (0,1)$, $2 \leq p < \infty$, $sp \leq N $, $2 \leq N \in \mathbb{N}$ and $(-Δ_p)^s$ is the fractional $p$-Laplacian operator. We treat both of cases $sp=N$ and $sp<N.$ The nonlinearity $g$ is a function of Berestycki-Lions type with critical exponential growth if $sp=N$ and critical polynomial growth if $sp<N$. We also prove the existence of a ground state solution for the same problem.
We establish the existence of positive solutions for a nonlinear elliptic Dirichlet problem in dimension $N$ involving the $N$-Laplacian. The nonlinearity considered depends on the gradient of the unknown function and an exponential term. In such case, variational methods cannot be applied. Our approach is based on approximation scheme, where we consider a new class of normed spaces of finite dimension. As a particular case, we extended the result achieved by De Araujo and Montenegro [2016] for any $N>2$.
We study the existence of solutions to the fractional elliptic equation (E1) $(-Δ)^αu+εg(|\nabla u|)=ν$ in a bounded regular domain $Ω$ of $\R^N (N\ge2)$, subject to the condition (E2) $u=0$ in $Ω^c$, where $ε=1$ or $-1$, $(-Δ)^α$ denotes the fractional Laplacian with $α\in(1/2,1)$, $ν$ is a Radon measure and $g:\R_+\mapsto\R_+$ is a continuous function. We prove the existence of weak solutions for problem (E1)-(E2) when $g$ is subcritical. Furthermore, the asymptotic behavior and uniqueness of solutions are described when $ν$ is Dirac mass, $g(s)=s^p$, $p\geq 1$ and $ε=1$.
In this paper, we are concerned with the existence and concentration phenomena of solutions for the following singularly perturbed fractional Schrödinger problem \begin{align*} \varepsilon^{2s}(-Δ)^su+V(x)u=f(u) \ \ \ \mbox{in} \ \ \ \mathbb{R}^N, \end{align*} where $N>2s$ and the nonlinearity $f$ has critical growth. By using the variational approach, we construct a localized bound-state solution concentrating around an isolated component of the positive minimum point of $V$ as $\varepsilon\rightarrow 0$. Our result improves the study made in X. He and W. Zou ({\it Calc. Var. Partial Differen…
On a bounded smooth domain we study solutions of a semilinear elliptic equation with an exponential nonlinearity and a Hardy potential depending on the distance to the boundary of the domain. We derive global a priori bounds of the Keller-Osserman type. Using a Phragmen-Lindelof alternative for generalized sub and super-harmonic functions we discuss existence, nonexistence and uniqueness of so-called large solutions, i.e., solutions which tend to infinity at the boundary. The approach develops the one used by the same authors for a problem with a power nonlinearity instead of the exponential n…
In this paper we establish the existence of at least two weak solutions for the following fractional Kirchhoff problem involving singular and exponential nonlinearity \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{split} M\left(\|u\|^{\frac{n}{s}}\right)(-Δ)^s_{n/s}u & = μu^{-q}+ u^{r-1}\exp( u^β)\;\text{in}\;\Om, u&>0,\;\text{in}\; \Om, u &= 0,\;\text{in}\; \mb R^n \setminus{\Om}, \end{split} \right. \end{equation*} where $\Om$ is smooth bounded domain in $\mb R^n$, {$n\geq 1$}, $s\in (0,1)$, $μ>0$ is a real parameter, $β<\frac{n}{n-s}$ and $q\in (0,1)$. We have considered the degenerate Kirchhoff case here…
In this paper we prove the existence and uniqueness of positive classical solution of the fractional Laplacian with singular nonlinearity in a smooth bounded domain with zero Drichlet boundary conditions. By the method of sub-supersolution, we derive the existence of positive classical solution to the approximation problems. In order to obtain the regularity, we first establish the existence of weak solution for the fraction Laplacian. Thanks to \cite{XY}, the regularity follows from the boundedness of weak solution.
In the present work we investigate the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions for the Choquard Logarithmic equation $(-Δ)^{\frac{1}{2}} u + au + λ(\ln|\cdot|\ast |u|^{2})u = f(u) \textrm{ in } \mathbb{R}$, for $ a>0 $, $ λ>0 $ and a nonlinearity $f$ with exponential critical growth. We prove the existence of a nontrivial solution at the mountain pass level and a nontrivial ground state solution under exponential critical and subcritical growth. Morever, when $ f $ has subcritical growth we guarantee the existence of infinitely many solutions, via genus theory.
This article deals with a survey of recent developments and results on Choquard equations where we focus on the existence and multiplicity of solutions of the partial differential equations which involve the nonlinearity of convolution type. Because of its nature, these equations are categorized under the nonlocal problems. We give a brief survey on the work already done in this regard following which we illustrate the problems we have addressed. Seeking the help of variational methods and asymptotic estimates, we prove our main results.
In this paper, we concern the isolated singular solutions for semi-linear elliptic equations involving the Hardy-Leray potentials \begin{equation}\label{0} -Δu+\fracμ{|x|^2} u=u^p\quad {\rm in}\quad Ω\setminus\{0\},\qquad u=0\quad{\rm on}\quad \partialΩ. \end{equation} We classify the isolated singularities and obtain the existence, the stability of positive solutions of (\ref{0}). Our results are based on the study of nonhomogeneous Hardy problem in a new distributional sense.
In this paper we deal with the following fractional Kirchhoff equation \begin{equation*} \left(p+q(1-s) \iint_{\mathbb{R}^{2N}} \frac{|u(x)- u(y)|^{2}}{|x-y|^{N+2s}} \, dx\,dy \right)(-Δ)^{s}u = g(u) \mbox{ in } \mathbb{R}^{N}, \end{equation*} where $s\in (0,1)$, $N\geq 2$, $p>0$, $q$ is a small positive parameter and $g: \mathbb{R}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is an odd function satisfying Berestycki-Lions type assumptions. By using minimax arguments, we establish a multiplicity result for the above equation, provided that $q$ is sufficiently small.
We study the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions for a family of fractional Kirchhoff equations with critical nonlinearity of the form \begin{equation*} M\left(\int_Ω|(-Δ)^{\fracα{2}}u|^2dx\right)(-Δ)^α u= λf(x)|u|^{q-2}u+|u|^{2^*_α-2}u\;\; \text{in}\; Ω,\;u=0\;\textrm{in}\;\mathbb R^n\setminus Ω, \end{equation*} where $Ω\subset \mathbb R^n$ is a smooth bounded domain, $ M(t)=a+\varepsilon t, \; a, \; \varepsilon>0,\; 0<α<1, \; 2α<n<4α$ and $ \; 1<q<2$. Here $2^*_α={2n}/{(n-2α)}$ is the fractional critical Sobolev exponent, $λ$ is a positive parameter and the coefficient $f(x)$ is…
