Bubbling solutions for supercritical problems on manifolds
Let be a dimensional compact Riemannian manifold without boundary
and be a non degenerate closed geodesic of . We prove that the
supercritical problem has a solution that concentrates along as
goes to zero, provided the function and the sectional curvatures
along satisfy a suitable condition. A connection with the solution of
a class of periodic O.D.E.'s with singularity of attractive or repulsive type
is established
Generalized Schr\"odinger-Newton system in dimension : critical case
In this paper we study a system which is equivalent to a nonlocal version of
the well known Brezis Nirenberg problem. The difficulties related with the lack
of compactness are here emphasized by the nonlocal nature of the critical
nonlinear term. We prove existence and nonexistence results of positive
solutions when and existence of solutions in both the resonance and the
nonresonance case for higher dimensions.Comment: 18 pages, typos fixed, some minor revision

Pigment composition of the bright skin in the poison toad, Melanophryniscus rubriventris (Anura: Bufonidae) from Argentina
The determination of the basis of skin colour is important to better understand the evolutionary and ecological relevance of colour variation in aposematic species. Significant variation in bright skin colouration can be found between and within populations of the poison toad, Melanophryniscus rubriventris. In this study, we identified the pigments present in the skin in seven populations of the species in Argentina to determine pigment composition of bright colouration. Our analysis showed that at least four different primary pigments consisting of a suite of orange-red carotenes and yellow xanthophylls contribute to the bright skin colour in different populations of the species. Four carotenoids, Astaxanthin, β-Carotene, Canthaxanthin, and Lycopene were detected by comparison with available standards in skin tissues on each population. Four carotenoids were also detected but not identified. We provide evidence that differences in colouration between individuals and populations in Melanophryniscus rubriventris cannot be merely ascribed to differences in their skin pigment profiles (i.e. pigment types). We discuss alternative explanations and stress the need of more studies on complex mechanisms and interactions affecting the expression of skin colouration in poison frogs and toads.Fil: Bonansea, Maria Ines.

Large mass boundary condensation patterns in the stationary Keller-Segel system
We consider the boundary value problem in
with Neumann boundary condition, where is a bounded smooth
domain in , This problem is equivalent to the
stationary Keller-Segel system from chemotaxis. We establish the existence of a
solution which exhibits a sharp boundary layer along the entire
boundary as . These solutions have large mass in
the sense that $ \int_\Omega \lambda e^{u_\lambda} \sim |\log\lambda|.
