Multiple solutions for p-Laplacian eigenproblem with nonlinear boundary conditions

Boletim da Sociedade Paranaense de Matemática, 2016

In this paper we study the existence of at least two nontrivial solutions for the nonlinear problem p-Laplacian, with nonlinear boundary conditions. We establish that there exist at least two solutions, which are opposite signs. For this reason, we characterize the first eigenvalue of an intermediary eigenvalue problem by the minimization method. In fact, in some sense, we establish the non-resonance below the first eigenvalues of nonlinear Steklov-Robin.

An m-point boundary value problem of Neumann type for a p-Laplacian like operator

Nonlinear Analysis-theory Methods & Applications, 2004

We note that this non-linear m-point boundary value problem is always at resonance since the associated m-point boundary value problem ((x)) = 0; t ∈ (0; 1); x (0) = 0; Â(x (1)) = m−2 i=1 aiÂ(x (i)) has non-trivial solutions x(t) = ; ∈ R (an arbitrary constant). Our results are obtained by a suitable homotopy, Leray-Schauder degree properties, and a priori bounds.

On the Structure of the Solution Set of a Sign Changing Perturbation of the p-Laplacian under Dirichlet Boundary Condition

arXiv (Cornell University), 2013

In a recent paper D. D. Hai showed that the equation −∆ p u = λf (u) in Ω, under Dirichlet boundary condition, where Ω ⊂ R N is a bounded domain with smooth boundary ∂Ω, ∆ p is the p-Laplacian, f : (0, ∞) → R is a continuous function which may blow up to ±∞ at the origin, admits a solution if λ > λ 0 and has no solution if 0 < λ < λ 0. In this paper we show that the solution set S of the equation above, which is not empty by Hai's results, actually admits a continuum of positive solutions.

The spectrum of p-Laplacian systems with various boundary conditions and applications

Advances in Differential Equations

Let p > 1, and ψ p : R N → R, v → |v| p−2 v, with |v| the Euclidian norm of v. This paper is devoted to the study of the corresponding eigenvalue problem (ψ p (u)) + λψ p (u) = 0, under the Dirichlet, Neumann and periodic boundary conditions. The eigenvalues in the Dirichlet and Neumann cases are the same when N = 1 and N ≥ 2, but not in the periodic case, where the exact nature of the set of eigenvalues is still open. We provide some information about this set. Variational characterizations of the first positive eigenvalue are obtained in the case of all three boundary conditions, as well as the corresponding generalized Poincaré's or Wirtinger's inequalities. Applications are given to forced Liénard-type systems and to systems with growth of order p − 1. * Work performed in the frame of the EC project "Some nonlinear boundary value problems for differential equations," grant CI 1 *-CT93-0323. † Supported also by FONDECYT 1970332 and Fondap.

The spectrum of p-Laplacian systems under Dirichlet, Neumann and periodic boundary conditions

Let p > 1, and ψp : R N → R, v → v p−2 v, with v the Euclidian norm of v. This paper surveys recent results on the eigenvalue problem ψp(u ′)´′ + λψp(u) = 0, under the Dirichlet, Neumann and periodic boundary conditions. The eigenvalues in the Dirichlet and Neumann cases are the same when N = 1 and N ≥ 2, but not in the periodic case, where the exact nature of the set of eigenvalues is still open. We provide some information about this set. Variational characterizations of the first positive eigenvalue are obtained in the case of all three boundary conditions, as well as the corresponding generalized Poincaré's or Wirtinger's inequalities.

EIGENVALUE PROBLEMS WITH p-LAPLACIAN OPERATORS

2014

In this article, we study eigenvalue problems with the p-Laplacian operator: −(|y′|p−2y′)′ = (p− 1)(λρ(x)− q(x))|y|p−2y on (0, πp), where p > 1 and πp ≡ 2π/(p sin(π/p)). We show that if ρ ≡ 1 and q is singlewell with transition point a = πp/2, then the second Neumann eigenvalue is greater than or equal to the first Dirichlet eigenvalue; the equality holds if and only if q is constant. The same result also holds for p-Laplacian problem with single-barrier ρ and q ≡ 0. Applying these results, we extend and improve a result by [24] by using finitely many eigenvalues and by generalizing the string equation to p-Laplacian problem. Moreover, our results also extend a result of Huang [14] on the estimate of the first instability interval for Hill equation to single-well function q.
