The Palais-smale Condition on Contact Type Energy Levels for Convex Lagrangian Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
We prove that for a uniformly convex Lagrangian system L on a compact manifold M , almost all energy levels contain a periodic orbit. We also prove that below Mañé’s critical value of the lift of the Lagrangian to the universal cover, cu(L), almost all energy levels have conjugate points. We prove that if the energy level [E = k] is of contact type and M 6= T then the free time action functional of L+ k satisfies the Palais-Smale condition.

The Solvability of Concave-Convex Quasilinear Elliptic Systems Involving $p$-Laplacian and Critical Sobolev Exponent
In this work, we study the existence of non-trivial multiple solutions for a class of quasilinear elliptic systems equipped with concave-convex nonlinearities and critical growth terms in bounded domains. By using the variational method, especially Nehari manifold and Palais-Smale condition, we prove the existence and multiplicity results of positive solutions.
متن کاملBubbling Phenomena of Certain Palais-Smale Sequences of m-Harmonic Type Systems
In this paper, we study the bubbling phenomena of weak solution sequences of a class of degenerate quasilinear elliptic systems of m-harmonic type. We prove that, under appropriate conditions, the energy is preserved during the bubbling process. The results apply to m-harmonic maps from a manifold Ω to a homogeneous space, and to m-harmonic maps with constant volumes, and also to certain Palais...
متن کاملSystems of coupled Poisson equations with critical growth
We establish the existence of a nontrivial solution to systems of coupled Poisson equations with critical growth in unbounded domains. The proofs rely on a generalized linking theorem due to Krysewski and Szulkin [9], and on a concentration-compactness argument since the Palais-Smale condition fails at all critical levels.

متن کاملON QUASILINEAR ELLIPTIC SYSTEMS INVOLVING MULTIPLE CRITICAL EXPONENTS
In this paper, we consider the existence of a non-trivial weaksolution to a quasilinear elliptic system involving critical Hardyexponents. The main issue of the paper is to understand thebehavior of these Palais-Smale sequences. Indeed, the principaldifficulty here is that there is an asymptotic competition betweenthe energy functional carried by the critical nonlinearities. Thenby the variatio...
متن کاملCritical Point Theorems concerning Strongly Indefinite Functionals and Applications to Hamiltonian Systems
Let X be a Finsler manifold. We prove some abstract results on the existence of critical points for strongly indefinite functionals f ∈ C1(X ,R) via a new deformation theorem. Different from the works in the literature, the new deformation theorem is constructed under a new version of Cerami-type condition instead of Palais-Smale condition. As applications, we prove the existence of multiple pe...
