SynopsisWe consider the boundary value problemwhere Ω ⊂ ℝn is a bounded domain, n≧3, 2* = 2n/(n − 2) is the critical exponent for the Sobolev embedding and λ is a real positive parameter. We prove the existence of infinitely many solutions of (*) when Ω exhibits suitable symmetries.

AbstractWe study the following nonlinear Dirichlet boundary value problem: where Ω is a bounded domain in ℝN(N ≥ 2) with a smooth boundary ∂Ω and g ∈ C(Ω × ℝ) is a function satisfying $\displaystyle \underset{|t|\rightarrow 0}{\lim}\frac{g(x, t)}{t}= \infty$ for all x ∈ Ω. Under appropriate assumptions, we prove the existence of infinitely many solutions when g(x, t) is not odd in t.

This paper deals with the following fractional elliptic equation with critical exponent \[ \begin{cases} \displaystyle (-\Delta )^{s}u=u_{+}^{2_{s}^{*}-1}+\lambda u-\bar{\nu}\varphi_{1}, & \text{in}\ \Omega,\\ \displaystyle u=0, & \text{in}\ {{\mathfrak R}}^{N}\backslash \Omega, \end{cases}\] where $\lambda$ , $\bar {\nu }\in {{\mathfrak R}}$ , $s\in (0,1)$ , $2^{*}_{s}=({2N}/{N-2s})\,(N>2s)$ , $(-\Delta )^{s}$ is the fractional Laplace operator, $\Omega \subset {{\mathfrak R}}^{N}$ is a bounded domain with smooth boundary and $\varphi _{1}$ is the first positive eigenfunction of the fractional Laplace under the condition $u=0$ in ${{\mathfrak R}}^{N}\setminus \Omega$ . Under suitable conditions on $\lambda$ and $\bar {\nu }$ and using a Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction method, we prove the fractional version of the Lazer-McKenna conjecture which says that the equation above has infinitely many solutions as $|\bar \nu | \to \infty$ .

AbstractIn this paper, we discuss a class of Kirchhof-type elliptic boundary value problem with Sobolev–Hardy critical exponent and apply the variational method to obtain one positive solution and two nontrivial solutions to the problem under certain conditions.

The boundary value problemis studied with a view to obtaining the existence of positive solutions in C1([0, 1])∩C2((0, 1)). The function f is assumed to be singular in the second variable, with the singularity modeled after the special case f(x, y) = a(x)y−p, p>0.This boundary value problem arises in the search of positive radially symmetric solutions towhere Ω is the open unit ball in ℝN, centered at the origin, Γ is its boundary and |x| is the Euclidean norm of x.

AbstractIn this paper, we consider the Neumann boundary value problem with a parameter λ∈(0,∞): By using fixed point theorems in a cone, we obtain some existence, multiplicity and nonexistence results for positive solutions in terms of different values of λ. We also prove an existence and uniqueness theorem and show the continuous dependence of solutions on the parameter λ.

We consider the following boundary value problemwhere λ > 0 and 1 ≤ p ≤ n – 1 is fixed. The values of λ are characterized so that the boundary value problem has a positive solution. Further, for the case λ = 1 we offer criteria for the existence of two positive solutions of the boundary value problem. Upper and lower bounds for these positive solutions are also established for special cases. Several examples are included to dwell upon the importance of the results obtained.
