STABLE AND SINGULAR SOLUTIONS OF THE EQUATION ∆u = 1 u

چکیده
We study properties of the semilinear elliptic equation ∆u = 1 u on domains in R, with an eye toward nonnegative singular solutions as limits of positive smooth solutions. We prove the nonexistence of such solutions in low dimensions when we also require them to be stable for the corresponding variational problem. The problem of finding singular solutions is related to the general study of singularities of minimal hypersurfaces of Euclidean space.

Invariant manifolds for a singular ordinary differential equation
We study the singular ordinary differential equation dU dt = 1 ζ(U) φs(U) + φns(U), (0.1) where U ∈ R , the functions φs ∈ R N and φns ∈ R N are of class C and ζ is a real valued C function. The equation is singular in the sense that ζ(U) can attain the value 0. We focus on the solutions of (0.1) that belong to a small neighbourhood of a point Ū such that φs(Ū) = φns(Ū) = ~0, ζ(Ū) = 0. We inves...
متن کاملInvariant Manifolds for Viscous Profiles of a Class of Mixed Hyperbolic-Parabolic Systems
We are concerned with viscous profiles (travelling waves and steady solutions) for mixed hyperbolic-parabolic systems in one space variable. For a class of systems including the compressible Navier Stokes equation, these profiles satisfy a singular ordinary differential equation in the form (0.1) dU dt = 1 ζ(U) F (U). Here U takes values in R and F : R → R is a regular function. The real valued...
متن کاملFive Types of Blow-up in a Semilinear Fourth-order Reaction-diffusion Equation: an Analytic-numerical Approach
Five types of blow-up patterns that can occur for the 4th-order semilinear parabolic equation of reaction-diffusion type ut = −∆2u+ |u|p−1u in R × (0, T ), p > 1, limt→T− supx∈RN |u(x, t)| = +∞, are discussed. For the semilinear heat equation ut = ∆u+ u , various blow-up patterns were under scrutiny since 1980s, while the case of higher-order diffusion was studied much less, regardless a wide r...
متن کاملAn integrable hierarchy , parametric solution and traveling wave solution
This paper gives an integrable hierarchy of nonlinear evolution equations. In this hierarchy there are the following representative equations: ut = ∂ 5 xu − 2 3 , ut = ∂ 5 x (u 1 3 )xx − 2(u 1 6 )x u ; uxxt + 3uxxux + uxxxu = 0. The first two are in the positive order hierarchy while the 3rd one is in the negative order hierarchy. The whole hierarchy is shown integrable through solving a key 3×...
