Abstract: In the present work we study the multiplicity and concentration of positive solutions for the following class of Kirchhoff problems: − ( ε 2 a + ε b ∫ R 3 | ∇ u | 2 d x ) Δ u + V ( x ) u = f ( u ) + γ u 5 in  R 3 , u ∈ H 1 ( R 3 ) , …u > 0 in  R 3 , where ε > 0 is a small parameter, a , b > 0 are constants, γ ∈ { 0 , 1 } , V is a continuous positive potential with a local minimum, and f is a superlinear continuous function with subcritical growth. The main results are obtained through suitable variational and topological arguments. We also provide a multiplicity result for a supercritical version of the above problem by combining a truncation argument with a Moser-type iteration. Our theorems extend and improve in several directions the studies made in (Adv. Nonlinear Stud. 14 (2014 ), 483–510; J. Differ. Equ. 252 (2012 ), 1813–1834; J. Differ. Equ. 253 (2012 ), 2314–2351).

Abstract: The formal asymptotic expansion of an oscillatory integral whose phase function has one nondegenerate critical point is a formal distribution supported at the critical point which is applied to the amplitude. This formal distribution is called a formal oscillatory integral (FOI). We introduce the notion of a formal oscillatory distribution supported at a point. We prove that a formal distribution is given by some FOI if and only if it is an oscillatory distribution that has a certain nondegeneracy property. We also prove that a star product ⋆ on a Poisson manifold M is natural in the sense of …Gutt and Rawnsley if and only if the formal distribution f ⊗ g ↦ ( f ⋆ g ) ( x ) is oscillatory for every x ∈ M .

Abstract: In this paper, we consider a second-order abstract viscoelastic equation in Hilbert spaces with delay term in the nonlinear internal damping and a nonlinear source term. Under some suitable assumptions on the weight of the delayed feedback, the weight of the non-delayed feedback and the behavior of the relaxation function, we establish two explicit and general decay rate results of the energy by introducing a suitable Lyaponov functional and some properties of the convex functions. Moreover, we give some applications and examples. This work generalizes the previous results without time delay term to those with delay in the nonlinear damping.

Abstract: In the present paper we consider the Standard Linear Solid model in R N coupled with the Cattaneo law of heat conduction. We show the well-posedness and asymptotic stability of the problem, giving decay rates for a norm related to the solution. These results are compared with those given for the Fourier problem in (Pellicer and Said-Houari (2020 )) and the ones of the problem without heat conduction (see previous work (Appl Math. Optim 80 (2019 ) 447–478)). The main difference is that the Cattaneo system exhibits the well-known regularity-loss phenomenon. The …methods used to prove these results are the energy method in the Fourier space and the eigenvalues expansion method. Show more

Abstract: We study the Poisson equation in a perforated domain with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The size of the perforations is denoted by ε > 0 , and is proportional to the distance between neighbouring perforations. In the periodic case, the homogenized problem (obtained in the limit ε → 0 ) is well understood (see (Rocky Mountain J. Math. 10 (1980) 125–140)). We extend these results to a non-periodic case which is defined as a localized deformation of the periodic setting. We propose geometric assumptions that make precise this setting, and we prove results which …extend those of the periodic case: existence of a corrector, convergence to the homogenized problem, and two-scale expansion.

Abstract: In this paper, we study the well-posedness and asymptotic stability to a thermoelastic laminated beam with nonlinear weights and time-varying delay. To the best of our knowledge, there are no results on the system and related Timoshenko systems with nonlinear weights. On suitable premises about the time delay and the hypothesis of equal-speed wave propagation, existence and uniqueness of solution is obtained by combining semigroup theory with Kato variable norm technique. The exponential stability is proved by energy method in two cases, with and without the structural damping, by using suitably sophisticated estimates for multipliers to construct an appropriated Lyapunov …functional.

Abstract: A variational characterization for the shift of eigenvalues caused by a general type of perturbation is derived for second order self-adjoint elliptic differential operators. This result allows the direct extension of asymptotic formulae from simple eigenvalues to repeated ones. Some examples of particular interest are presented theoretically and numerically for the Laplacian operator for the following domain perturbations: excision of a small hole, local change of conductivity, small boundary deformation.
