Let (M, g) be a smooth, compact n-dimensional Riemannian manifold with boundary and let ∆ be the corresponding Laplace-Beltrami operator acting on functions. If the boundary is non-empty, we assume that either Dirichlet or Neumann conditions are imposed along ∂M. Consider the operators χλ defined as projection onto the subspace spanned by the Dirichlet (or Neumann) eigenfunctions whose correspo...

We study an initial-boundary-value problem of a nonlinear Korteweg-de Vries equation posed on a finite interval (0, 2π). The whole system has Dirichlet boundary condition at the left end-point, and both of Dirichlet and Neumann homogeneous boundary conditions at the right end-point. It is known that the origin is not asymptotically stable for the linearized system around the origin. We prove th...

We investigate the integrability of the SO(N) principal chiral model on a halfline, and find that mixed Dirichlet/Neumann boundary conditions (as well as pure Dirichlet or Neumann) lead to infinitely many conserved charges classically in involution. We use an anomaly-counting method to show that at least one non-trivial example survives quantization, compare our results with the proposed reflec...

The existence of infinitely many solutions is established for a class of nonlinear functionals involving the p-biharmonic operator with nonhomoge- neous Neumann boundary conditions. Using a recent critical-point theorem for nonsmooth functionals and under appropriate behavior of the nonlinear term and nonhomogeneous Neumann boundary conditions, we obtain the result.

We investigate the large-time behavior of three types of initial-boundary value problems for Hamilton-Jacobi Equations with nonconvex Hamiltonians. We consider the Neumann or oblique boundary condition, the state constraint boundary condition and Dirichlet boundary condition. We establish general convergence results for viscosity solutions to asymptotic solutions as time goes to infinity via an...
