Periodic solutions for critical fractional problems
We deal with the existence of -periodic solutions to the following
non-local critical problem \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{array}{ll}
[(-\Delta_{x}+m^{2})^{s}-m^{2s}]u=W(x)|u|^{2^{*}_{s}-2}u+ f(x, u) &\mbox{in}
(-\pi,\pi)^{N} \\ u(x+2\pi e_{i})=u(x) &\mbox{for all} x \in \mathbb{R}^{N},
\quad i=1, \dots, N, \end{array} \right. \end{equation*} where , , , is the fractional critical
Sobolev exponent, is a positive continuous function, and is a
superlinear -periodic (in ) continuous function with subcritical
growth. When , the existence of a nonconstant periodic solution is
obtained by applying the Linking Theorem, after transforming the above
non-local problem into a degenerate elliptic problem in the half-cylinder
, with a nonlinear Neumann boundary
condition, through a suitable variant of the extension method in periodic
setting. We also consider the case by using a careful procedure of limit.
As far as we know, all these results are new.Comment: Calculus of Variations and Partial Differential Equations (2018
Nonzero solutions of perturbed Hammerstein integral equations with deviated arguments and applications
We provide a theory to establish the existence of nonzero solutions of
perturbed Hammerstein integral equations with deviated arguments, being our
main ingredient the theory of fixed point index. Our approach is fairly general
and covers a variety of cases. We apply our results to a periodic boundary
value problem with reflections and to a thermostat problem. In the case of
reflections we also discuss the optimality of some constants that occur in our
theory. Some examples are presented to illustrate the theory.Comment: 3 figures, 23 page
Existence of positive solutions in the superlinear case via coincidence degree: the Neumann and the periodic boundary value problems
We prove the existence of positive periodic solutions for the second order
nonlinear equation , where has superlinear growth at
zero and at infinity. The weight function is allowed to change its sign.
Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of nontrivial solutions
are obtained. The proof is based on Mawhin's coincidence degree and applies
also to Neumann boundary conditions. Applications are given to the search of
positive solutions for a nonlinear PDE in annular domains and for a periodic
problem associated to a non-Hamiltonian equation.Comment: 41 page
Pairs of positive periodic solutions of nonlinear ODEs with indefinite weight: a topological degree approach for the super-sublinear case
We study the periodic and the Neumann boundary value problems associated with
the second order nonlinear differential equation \begin{equation*} u'' + c u' +
\lambda a(t) g(u) = 0, \end{equation*} where is a
sublinear function at infinity having superlinear growth at zero. We prove the
existence of two positive solutions when and
is sufficiently large. Our approach is based on Mawhin's
coincidence degree theory and index computations.Comment: 26 page
