A supercritical elliptic problem in a cylindrical shell
We consider the problem where
, and . Let
if and if
or . We show that is the true critical exponent
for this problem, and that there exist nontrivial solutions if
but there are no such solutions if
Blow-up solutions for linear perturbations of the Yamabe equation
For a smooth, compact Riemannian manifold (M,g) of dimension N \geg 3, we
are interested in the critical equation where \Delta_g is the Laplace--Beltrami
operator, S_g is the Scalar curvature of (M,g), , and
is a small parameter
The Ljapunov-Schmidt reduction for some critical problems
This is a survey about the application of the Ljapunov-Schmidt reduction for
some critical problems
On stability of discretizations of the Helmholtz equation (extended version)
We review the stability properties of several discretizations of the
Helmholtz equation at large wavenumbers. For a model problem in a polygon, a
complete -explicit stability (including -explicit stability of the
continuous problem) and convergence theory for high order finite element
methods is developed. In particular, quasi-optimality is shown for a fixed
number of degrees of freedom per wavelength if the mesh size and the
approximation order are selected such that is sufficiently small and
, and, additionally, appropriate mesh refinement is used near
the vertices. We also review the stability properties of two classes of
numerical schemes that use piecewise solutions of the homogeneous Helmholtz
equation, namely, Least Squares methods and Discontinuous Galerkin (DG)
methods. The latter includes the Ultra Weak Variational Formulation
