چکیده
We prove the existence of at least two positive solutions for the semilinear elliptic boundary-value problem −∆u(x) = λa(x)u + b(x)u for x ∈ Ω; u(x) = 0 for x ∈ ∂Ω on a bounded region Ω by using the Nehari manifold and the fibering maps associated with the Euler functional for the problem. We show how knowledge of the fibering maps for the problem leads to very easy existence proofs.

Existence and multiplicity of positive solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic system with nonlinear boundary conditions
This study concerns the existence and multiplicity of positive weak solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic systems with nonlinear boundary conditions. Our results is depending on the local minimization method on the Nehari manifold and some variational techniques. Also, by using Mountain Pass Lemma, we establish the existence of at least one solution with positive energy.
متن کاملA two-phase free boundary problem for a semilinear elliptic equation
In this paper we study a two-phase free boundary problem for a semilinear elliptic equation on a bounded domain $Dsubset mathbb{R}^{n}$ with smooth boundary. We give some results on the growth of solutions and characterize the free boundary points in terms of homogeneous harmonic polynomials using a fundamental result of Caffarelli and Friedman regarding the representation of functions whose ...
متن کاملMultiple positive solutions for semilinear elliptic systems with nonlinear boundary condition
We consider the semilinear elliptic system { −∆u+m1(x)u = fu(x, u, v) x ∈ Ω, −∆v +m2(x)v = fv(x, u, v) x ∈ Ω, with the boundary conditions ∂u ∂n = λg(x, u) and ∂v ∂n = μh(x, v), where Ω ⊂ RN is a bounded smooth domain, λ, μ > 0 and the functions f , g, h, m1 and m2 satisfy some suitable conditions. Using the fibering map and by extracting the Palais-Smale sequences in the Nehari manifold, we pr...
متن کاملAn Inverse Boundary-value Problem for Semilinear Elliptic Equations
We show that in dimension two or greater, a certain equivalence class of the scalar coefficient a(x, u) of the semilinear elliptic equation ∆u + a(x, u) = 0 is uniquely determined by the Dirichlet to Neumann map of the equation on a bounded domain with smooth boundary. We also show that the coefficient a(x, u) can be determined by the Dirichlet to Neumann map under some additional hypotheses.
متن کاملThe fibering map approach to a quasilinear degenerate p(x)-Laplacian equation
By considering a degenerate $p(x)-$Laplacian equation, a generalized compact embedding in weighted variable exponent Sobolev space is presented. Multiplicity of positive solutions are discussed by applying fibering map approach for the corresponding Nehari manifold.
