Global Bifurcation Theory

In this paper, we show how the global bifurcation theory for nonlinear Fredholm operators (Theorem 4.3 of [Shi & Wang, 2009]) and for compact operators (Theorem 1.3 of [Rabinowitz, 1971]) can be used in the study of the nonconstant stationary solutions for a volume-filling chemotaxis model with logistic growth under Neumann boundary conditions. Our results show that infinitely many local branches of nonconstant solutions bifurcate from the positive constant solution [Formula: see text] at [Formula: see text]. Moreover, for each [Formula: see text], we prove that each [Formula: see text] can be extended into a global curve, and the projection of the bifurcation curve [Formula: see text] onto the [Formula: see text]-axis contains [Formula: see text].

This paper deals with a Neumann boundary value problem for a volume-filling chemotaxis model with logistic growth in ad-dimensional boxTd=(0,π)d  (d=1,2,3). It is proved that given any general perturbation of magnitudeδ, its nonlinear evolution is dominated by the corresponding linear dynamics along a finite number of fixed fastest growing modes, over a time period of the orderln⁡(1/δ). Each initial perturbation certainly can behave drastically different from another, which gives rise to the richness of patterns.

Abstract In this paper we discuss the existence of a solution between wellordered subsolution and supersolution of the Kirchhoff equation. Using the sub-supersolution method together with a Rabinowitz-type global bifurcation theory, we establish the existence of positive solutions for Kirchhoff-type problems when the nonlinearity is singular or sign-changing. Moreover, we obtain some necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of positive solutions for the problem when N = 1.

AbstractWe establish the existence of loop type subcontinua of nonnegative solutions for a class of concave-convex type elliptic equations with indefinite weights, under Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. Our approach depends on local and global bifurcation analysis from the zero solution in a nonregular setting, since the nonlinearities considered are not differentiable at zero, so that the standard bifurcation theory does not apply. To overcome this difficulty, we combine a regularization scheme with a priori bounds, and Whyburn’s topological method. Furthermore, via a continuity argument we prove a positivity property for subcontinua of nonnegative solutions. These results are based on a positivity theorem for the associated concave problem proved by us, and extend previous results established in the powerlike case.

SynopsisWe discuss steady-state solutions of systems of semilinear reaction-diffusion equations which model situations in which two interacting species u and v inhabit the same bounded region. It is easy to find solutions to the systems such that either u or v is identically zero; such solutions correspond to the case where one of the species is extinct. By using decoupling and global bifurcation theory techniques, we prove the existence of solutions which are positive in both u and v corresponding to the case where the populations can co-exist.

SynopsisThis paper combines the global bifurcation theory of Rabinowitz with Sturmian theory and careful estimates to obtain a detailed qualitative description of bifurcating branches of solutions to the equations for whirling nonuniform, nonlinearly elastic strings. These results generalize earlier work of Kolodner and Stuart on inextensible strings. It is shown that the location of solution branches for the generalization of Kolodner's problem is especially sensitive to the material properties of the string, whereas that for Stuart's problem is not. The analysis of a third problem illuminates the source of this dichotomy.
