Quantitative Deformation Theorems and Critical Point Theory
It is well known that deformation theorems are the basic tools in critical point theory. They can be derived under a condition of Palais-Smale type ((PS), for short). In the classical setting of a C1 functional f defined on a Banach space X (or a C2 Finsler manifold), we refer to [15]; for a continuous functional f defined on a complete metric space X, we refer to [8], the results of which incl...
متن کاملCritical Point Theorems on Finsler Manifolds
In this paper we consider a dominating Finsler metric on a complete Riemannian manifold. First we prove that the energy integral of the Finsler metric satisfies the Palais-Smale condition, and ask for the number of geodesics with endpoints in two given submanifolds. Using Lusternik-Schnirelman theory of critical points we obtain some multiplicity results for the number of Finsler-geodesics betw...
متن کاملCritical Point Theorems and Ekeland Type Variational Principle with Applications
We introduce the notion of λ-spaces which is much weaker than cone metric spaces defined by Huang and X. Zhang 2007 . We establish some critical point theorems in the setting of λ-spaces and, in particular, in the setting of complete cone metric spaces. Our results generalize the critical point theorem proposed by Dancs et al. 1983 and the results given by Khanh and Quy 2010 to λ-spaces and con...
متن کاملCritical Point Theorems for Nonlinear Dynamical Systems and Their Applications
We present some new critical point theorems for nonlinear dynamical systems which are generalizations of Dancš-Hegedüs-Medvegyev’s principle in uniform spaces and metric spaces by applying an abstract maximal element principle established by Lin and Du. We establish some generalizations of Ekeland’s variational principle, Caristi’s common fixed point theorem for multivalued maps, Takahashi’s no...
متن کاملInequalities of Critical Point Theory
A purpose of critical point theory is the counting of critical points of functions. Principal theorems in the subject state in precise terms that topological complexity of the underlying space is reflected in the existence and nature of critical points of any smooth real-valued function defined on the space. The initial development of critical point theory is peculiarly the work of one man, Mar...
