$\sigma =\sigma _c:=2(1-q)/ (m-1)$

\[ u(t,x)={\rm e}^{-\alpha t}f(|x|\,{\rm e}^{\beta t}), \quad \alpha=\frac{2}{m-1}\beta, \]

$\beta ^*\in (0,\,\infty )$

Let 1 < p < +∞ and let Ω ⊂ ℝN be either a ball or an annulus. We continue the analysis started in [Boscaggin, Colasuonno, Noris, ESAIM Control Optim. Calc. Var. (2017)], concerning quasilinear Neumann problems of the type

$-\Delta _pu = f(u),\quad u > 0\,{\rm in }\,\Omega ,\quad \partial _\nu u = 0\,{\rm on }\,\partial \Omega .$

In this paper, semidefinite optimization method is proposed to estimate bounds on linear functionals defined on solutions of linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with smooth coefficients. The method can get upper and lower bounds by solving two semidefinite programs, not solving ODEs directly. Its convergence theorem is proved. The theorem shows that the upper and lower bounds series of linear functionals discussed can approach their exact values infinitely. Numerical results show that the method is effective for the estimation problems discussed. In addition, in order to reduce calculation amount, Cheybeshev polynomials are applied to replace Taylor polynomials of smooth coefficients in computing process.

We show that a class of semilinear Laplace–Beltrami equations on the unit sphere in ${{\mathbb{R}}^{n}}$ has infinitely many rotationally symmetric solutions. The solutions to these equations are the solutions to a two point boundary value problem for a singular ordinary differential equation. We prove the existence of such solutions using energy and phase plane analysis. We derive a Pohozaev-type identity in order to prove that the energy to an associated initial value problem tends to infinity as the energy at the singularity tends to infinity. The nonlinearity is allowed to grow as fast as ${{\left| s \right|}^{p-1}}s$ for $\left| s \right|$ large with $1\,<\,p\,<\,\left( n+5 \right)/\left( n-3 \right)$.
