We study space-like hypersurfaces with functionally bounded mean curvature in Lorentzian warped products , where F is a (non-compact) complete Riemannian manifold whose universal covering is parabolic. In particular, we provide several rigidity results under appropriate mathematical and physical assumptions. As an application, several Calabi–Bernstein-type results are obtained which widely extend the previous ones in this setting.

We give a general method of extending unital completely positive maps to amalgamated free products of C*-algebras. As an application, we give a dilation theoretic proof of Boca's Theorem.

Pullback attractors with forwards unbounded behaviour are to be found in the literature, but not much is known about pullback attractors with each and every section being unbounded. In this paper, we introduce the concept of unbounded pullback attractor, for which the sections are not required to be compact. These objects are addressed in this paper in the context of a class of non-autonomous semilinear parabolic equations. The nonlinearities are assumed to be non-dissipative and, in addition, defined in such a way that the equation possesses unbounded solutions as the initial time goes to -∞, for each elapsed time. Distinct regimes for the non-autonomous term are taken into account. Namely, we address the small non-autonomous perturbation and the asymptotically autonomous cases.

In this series of papers, we explore moments of derivatives of L-functions in function fields using classical analytic techniques such as character sums and approximate functional equation. The present paper is concerned with the study of mean values of derivatives of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions over function fields when the average is taken over monic and irreducible polynomials P in 𝔽q[T]. When the cardinality q of the ground field is fixed and the degree of P gets large, we obtain asymptotic formulas for the first moment of the first and the second derivative of this family of L-functions at the critical point. We also compute the full polynomial expansion in the asymptotic formulas for both mean values.

We prove a Carleman estimate for elliptic second-order partial differential expressions with Lipschitz continuous coefficients. The Carleman estimate is valid for any complex-valued function u ∈ W2,2 with support in a punctured ball of arbitrary radius. The novelty of this Carleman estimate is that we establish an explicit dependence on the Lipschitz and ellipticity constants, the dimension of the space and the radius of the ball. In particular, we provide a uniform and quantitative bound on the weight function for a class of elliptic operators given explicitly in terms of ellipticity and Lipschitz constant.

We use bifurcation and topological methods to investigate the existence/nonexistence and the multiplicity of positive solutions of the following quasilinear Schrödinger equation

$$\left\{ {\matrix{ {-\Delta u-\kappa \Delta \left( {u^2} \right)u = \beta u-\lambda \Phi \left( {u^2} \right)u{\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} } \hfill & {{\rm in}\;\Omega ,} \hfill \cr {u = 0} \hfill & {{\rm on}\;\partial \Omega } \hfill \cr } } \right.$$

Let C be a set of positive integers. In this paper, we obtain an algorithm for computing all subsets A of positive integers which are minimals with the condition that if x1 + … + xn is a partition of an element in C, then at least a summand of this partition belongs to A. We use techniques of numerical semigroups to solve this problem because it is equivalent to give an algorithm that allows us to compute all the numerical semigroups which are maximals with the condition that has an empty intersection with the set C.

In this paper, we are concerned with the following bi-harmonic equation with Hartree type nonlinearity

$$\Delta ^2u = \left( {\displaystyle{1 \over { \vert x \vert ^8}}* \vert u \vert ^2} \right)u^\gamma ,\quad x\in {\open R}^d,$$

We show uniform-in-time propagation of algebraic and stretched exponential moments for the Becker--Döring equations. Our proof is based upon a suitable use of the maximum principle together with known rates of convergence to equilibrium.

We demonstrate that Radon measures which arise as the limit of the Modica-Mortola measures associated with phase-fields with uniformly bounded diffuse area and Willmore energy may be singular at the boundary of a domain and discuss implications for practical applications. We furthermore give partial regularity results for the phase-fields uε at the boundary in terms of boundary conditions and counterexamples without boundary conditions.

We examine the elliptic system given by

$$\left\{ {\matrix{ {-\Delta u = \lambda f(v)} \hfill & {{\rm in }\,\,\Omega ,} \hfill \cr {-\Delta v = \gamma f(u)} \hfill & {{\rm in }\,\,\Omega ,} \hfill \cr {u = v = 0} \hfill & {{\rm on }\,\,\partial \Omega ,} \hfill \cr } } \right.$$

$$0 < \tau _-: = \mathop {\lim \inf }\limits_{t\to \infty } \displaystyle{{f(t){f}^{\prime \prime}(t)} \over {{f}^{\prime}{(t)}^2}} \les \tau _ + : = \mathop {\lim \sup }\limits_{t\to \infty } \displaystyle{{f(t){f}^{\prime \prime}(t)} \over {{f}^{\prime}{(t)}^2}} \les 2,$$

$$[P_{f}(\alpha,\tau_{-},\tau_{+}):=(2-\tau_{-})^{2} \alpha^{2}- 4(2-\tau_{+})\alpha+4(1-\tau_{+}).]$$

Let Q be the open unit square in ℝ2. We prove that in a natural complete metric space of BV homeomorphisms f : Q → Q with f|∂Q = Id, residually many homeomorphisms (in the sense of Baire categories) map a null set onto a set of full measure, and vice versa. Moreover, we observe that for 1 ⩽ p < 2, the family of W1,p homemomorphisms satisfying the above property is of the first category.

In this paper, we study the existence and multiplicity of solutions for Kirchhoff-type superlinear problems involving non-local integro-differential operators. As a particular case, we consider the following Kirchhoff-type fractional Laplace equation:

$$\matrix{ {\left\{ {\matrix{ {M\left( {\int\!\!\!\int\limits_{{\open R}^{2N}} {\displaystyle{{ \vert u(x)-u(y) \vert ^2} \over { \vert x-y \vert ^{N + 2s}}}} {\rm d}x{\rm d}y} \right){(-\Delta )}^su = f(x,u)\quad } \hfill & {{\rm in }\Omega ,} \hfill \cr {u = 0\quad } \hfill & {{\rm in }{\open R}^N{\rm \setminus }\Omega {\mkern 1mu} ,} \hfill \cr } } \right.} \hfill \cr } $$

$M:{\open R}_0^ + \to {\open R}^ + $

We study a class of Schrödinger lattice systems with sublinear nonlinearities and perturbed terms. We get an interesting result that the systems do not have nontrivial homoclinic solutions if the perturbed terms are removed, but the systems have ground state homoclinic solutions if the perturbed terms are added. Besides, we also study the continuity of the homoclinic solutions in the perturbation terms at zero. To the best of our knowledge, there is no published result focusing on the perturbed Schrödinger lattice systems.

In the present paper, we consider the nonlocal Kirchhoff problem

$$-\left(\epsilon^2a+\epsilon b\int_{{\open R}^{3}}\vert \nabla u \vert^{2}\right)\Delta u+V(x)u=u^{p}, \quad u \gt 0 \quad {\rm in} {\open R}^{3},$$

$\left(\int_{{\open R}^{3}} \vert \nabla u \vert^{2}\right)\Delta u$
