    Self-similar solutions of the p-Laplace heat equation: the case when p>2

    Get PDF
    We study the self-similar solutions of the equation utdiv(up2u)=0, u_{t}-div(| \nabla u| ^{p-2}\nabla u)=0, in RN,\mathbb{R}^{N}, when p>2.p>2. We make a complete study of the existence and possible uniqueness of solutions of the form u(x,t)=(±t)α/βw((±t)1/βx) u(x,t)=(\pm t)^{-\alpha/\beta}w((\pm t)^{-1/\beta}| x|) of any sign, regular or singular at x=0.x=0. Among them we find solutions with an expanding compact support or a shrinking hole (for t>0),t>0), or a spreading compact support or a focussing hole (for t<0).t<0). When t<0,t<0, we show the existence of positive solutions oscillating around the particular solution $U(x,t)=C_{N,p}(| x| ^{p}/(-t))^{1/(p-2)}.

    We give a new approach on general systems of the form (G){[c]{c}% -\Delta_{p}u=\operatorname{div}(|\nabla u| ^{p-2}\nabla u)=\epsilon_{1}|x| ^{a}u^{s}v^{\delta}, -\Delta_{q}v=\operatorname{div}(|\nabla v|^{q-2}\nabla u)=\epsilon_{2}|x|^{b}u^{\mu}v^{m}, where Q,p,q,δ,μ,s,m,Q,p,q,\delta,\mu,s,m, a,ba,b are real parameters, Q,p,q1,Q,p,q\neq1, and ϵ1=±1,\epsilon_{1}=\pm1, ϵ2=±1.\epsilon_{2}=\pm1. In the radial case we reduce the problem to a quadratic system of order 4, of Kolmogorov type. Then we obtain new local and global existence or nonexistence results. In the case ϵ1=ϵ2=1,\epsilon_{1}=\epsilon_{2}=1, we also describe the behaviour of the ground states in two cases where the system is variational. We give an important result on existence of ground states for a nonvariational system with p=q=2p=q=2 and s=m>0.s=m>0. In the nonradial case we solve a conjecture of nonexistence of ground states for the system with p=q=2p=q=2 and δ=m+1\delta=m+1 and μ=s+1.\mu=s+1.Comment: 43 page

    Let Ω\Omega be a bounded domain of RN\mathbb{R}^{N}, and Q=Ω×(0,T).Q=\Omega \times(0,T). We study problems of the model type \left\{ \begin{array} [c]{l}% {u_{t}}-{\Delta_{p}}u=\mu\qquad\text{in }Q,\\ {u}=0\qquad\text{on }\partial\Omega\times(0,T),\\ u(0)=u_{0}\qquad\text{in }\Omega, \end{array} \right. where p>1p>1, μMb(Q)\mu\in\mathcal{M}_{b}(Q) and u0L1(Ω).u_{0}\in L^{1}(\Omega). Our main result is a \textit{stability theorem }extending the results of Dal Maso, Murat, Orsina, Prignet, for the elliptic case, valid for quasilinear operators uA(u)=u\longmapsto\mathcal{A}(u)=div(A(x,t,u))(A(x,t,\nabla u))\textit{. }Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1310.525

    Let Ω\Omega be a bounded domain of RN\mathbb{R}^{N}, and Q=Ω×(0,T).Q=\Omega \times(0,T). We consider problems\textit{ }of the type % \left\{ \begin{array} [c]{l}% {u_{t}}-{\Delta_{p}}u\pm\mathcal{G}(u)=\mu\qquad\text{in }Q,\\ {u}=0\qquad\text{on }\partial\Omega\times(0,T),\\ u(0)=u_{0}\qquad\text{in }\Omega, \end{array} \right. where Δp{\Delta_{p}} is the pp-Laplacian, μ\mu is a bounded Radon measure, u0L1(Ω),u_{0}\in L^{1}(\Omega), and ±G(u)\pm\mathcal{G}(u) is an absorption or a source term.. In the model case G(u)=±uq1u\mathcal{G}(u)=\pm\left\vert u\right\vert ^{q-1}u (q>p1),(q>p-1), or G\mathcal{G} has an exponential type. We prove the existence of renormalized solutions for any measure μ\mu in the subcritical case, and give sufficient conditions for existence in the general case, when μ\mu is good in time and satisfies suitable capacitary conditions.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1310.525

    Pointwise estimates and existence of solutions of porous medium and pp-Laplace evolution equations with absorption and measure data

    Let Ω\Omega be a bounded domain of RN(N2)\mathbb{R}^{N}(N\geq 2). We obtain a necessary and a sufficient condition, expressed in terms of capacities, for existence of a solution to the porous medium equation with absorption \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{l} {u_{t}}-{\Delta }(|u|^{m-1}u)+|u|^{q-1}u=\mu ~ \text{in }\Omega \times (0,T), \\ {u}=0~~~\text{on }\partial \Omega \times (0,T), \\ u(0)=\sigma , \end{array} \right. \end{equation*} where σ\sigma and μ\mu are bounded Radon measures, q>max(m,1)q>\max (m,1), m>N2Nm>\frac{N-2}{N}. We also obtain a sufficient condition for existence of a solution to the pp-Laplace evolution equation \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{l} {u_{t}}-{\Delta _{p}}u+|u|^{q-1}u=\mu ~~\text{in }\Omega \times (0,T), \\ {u}=0 ~ \text{on }\partial \Omega \times (0,T), \\ u(0)=\sigma . \end{array} \right. \end{equation*} where q>p1q>p-1 and p>2p>2

    We give new criteria for the existence of weak solutions to an equation with a super linear source term \begin{align*}-\Delta u = u^q ~~\text{in}~\Omega,~~u=\sigma~~\text{on }~\partial\Omega\end{align*}where Ω\Omega is a either a bounded smooth domain or R_+N\mathbb{R}\_+^{N}, q\textgreater{}1 and σM+(Ω)\sigma\in \mathfrak{M}^+(\partial\Omega) is a nonnegative Radon measure on Ω\partial\Omega. One of the criteria we obtain is expressed in terms of some Bessel capacities on Ω\partial\Omega. We also give a sufficient condition for the existence of weak solutions to equation with source mixed terms. \begin{align*} -\Delta u = |u|^{q\_1-1}u|\nabla u|^{q\_2} ~~\text{in}~\Omega,~~u=\sigma~~\text{on }~\partial\Omega \end{align*} where q\_1,q\_2\geq 0, q\_1+q\_2\textgreater{}1, q\_2\textless{}2, σM(Ω)\sigma\in \mathfrak{M}(\partial\Omega) is a Radon measure on Ω\partial\Omega.Comment: Journal of Functional Analysis 269 (2015) 1995--201

    On the connection between two quasilinear elliptic problems with source terms of order 0 or 1

    Get PDF
    We establish a precise connection between two elliptic quasilinear problems with Dirichlet data in a bounded domain of RN.\mathbb{R}^{N}. The first one, of the form Δpu=β(u)up+λf(x)+α, -\Delta_{p}u=\beta(u)| \nabla u| ^{p}+\lambda f(x)+\alpha, involves a source gradient term with natural growth, where β\beta is nonnegative, λ>0,f(x)0\lambda>0,f(x)\geqq0, and α\alpha is a nonnegative measure. The second one, of the form Δpv=λf(x)(1+g(v))p1+μ, -\Delta_{p}v=\lambda f(x)(1+g(v))^{p-1}+\mu, presents a source term of order 0,0, where gg is nondecreasing, and μ\mu is a nonnegative measure. Here β\beta and gg can present an asymptote. The correlation gives new results of existence, nonexistence, regularity and multiplicity of the solutions for the two problems, without or with measures. New informations on the extremal solutions are given when gg is superlinear
