    We consider a compact, connected, orientable, boundaryless Riemannian manifold (M,g)(M,g) of class CC^\infty where gg denotes the metric tensor. Let n=dimM3n= \dim M \geq 3. Using Morse techniques, we prove the existence of 2P1(M)12{\mathcal P}_1(M) -1 non-costant solutions uH1,p(M)u\in H^{1,p}(M) to the quasilinear problem (P_\epsilon) \left\{ \begin{array}{l} -\epsilon^p \, \Delta_{p,g} u +u^{p-1}=u^{q-1} \\ u>0 \end{array} \right. \label{eqab} for ε>0\varepsilon>0 small enough, where 2p<n2 \leq p<n, p<q<pp < q <p^*, p=np/(np)p^* = np/(n-p) and Δp,gu=divg(ugp2u)\Delta_{p,g} u = \textrm{div}_g (|\nabla u|_g^{p-2}\nabla u) is the pp-laplacian associated to gg of uu (note that Δ2,g=Δg\Delta_{2,g} = \Delta_g) and Pt(M){\mathcal P}_t(M) denotes the Poincar\'e Polynomial of MM. We also establish results of genericity of nondegenerate solutions for the quasilinear elliptic problem (Pε)(P_\varepsilon)

    This work deals with Morse index estimates for a solution u is an element of H(1)(p)(M) of the quasilinear elliptic equation -div(g) ((alpha + |del u|(2)(g))((p-2)/2)del u,) = h(x,u), where (M, g) is a compact, Riemannian manifold, 0 < alpha, 2 <= p < n.

    We consider a compact, connected, orientable, boundaryless Riemannian manifold (M, g) of class C∞ where g denotes the metric tensor. Let n = dim M ≥ 3. Using Morse techniques, we prove the existence of 2mathcalP1(M)12{mathcal P}-1(M) -1 nonconstant solutions u H1,p(M) to the quasilinear problem (P-epsilon) left{{egin{array}{@{}l@{}} -epsilon^p Delta-{p,g} u +u^{p-1}=u^{q-1}, \u>0,end{array}} ight for ε &gt; 0 small enough, where 2 ≤ p &lt; n, p &lt; q &lt; p∗, p∗= np/(n - p) and Deltap,gu=extrmdivg(ertablauertgp2ablau)Delta-{p, g} u = extrm{div}-g (ert abla uert-{g}^{p-2} abla u) is the p-laplacian associated to g of u (note that Δ2,g = Δg) and mathcalPt(M){mathcal P}-t(M) denotes the Poincaré polynomial of M. We also establish results of genericity of nondegenerate solutions for the quasilinear elliptic problem (Pε)

    An Eigenvalue Problem for a Quasilinear Elliptic Field Equation on R^N

    No full text
    We study the field equation Δu+V(x)u+εr(Δpu+W(u))=μu-\Delta u+V(x)u+\varepsilon^r(-\Delta_pu+W'(u))=\mu u on Rn\mathbb R^n, with ε\varepsilon positive parameter. The function WW is singular in a point and so the configurations are characterized by a topological invariant: the topological charge. By a min-max method, for ε\varepsilon sufficiently small, there exists a finite number of solutions (μ(ε),u(ε))(\mu(\varepsilon),u(\varepsilon)) of the eigenvalue problem for any given charge qZ{0}q\in{\mathbb Z}\setminus\{0\}

    Multiplicity of symmetric solutions for a nonlinear eigenvalue problem in ℝn

    No full text
    In this paper, we study the nonlinear eigenvalue field equation -Δu + V(|x|)u + ε(-Δpu + W&apos;(u)) = μu where u is a function from ℝn to ℝn+1 with n ≥ 3, ε is a positive parameter and p &gt; n. We fine a multiplicity of solutions, symmetric with respect to an action of the orthogonal group O(n): For any q ∈ ℤ we prove the existence of finitely many pairs (u, μ) solutions for ε sufficiently small, where u is symmetric and has topological charge q. The multiplicity of our solutions can be as large as desired, provided that the singular point of W and ε are chosen accordingly.Mathematic

    The role of taxation in an integrated economic-environmental model: a dynamical analysis

    No full text
    We propose a model with economic and environmental domains that interact with each other. The economic sphere is described by a Solow growth model, in which productivity is not exogenous but negatively affected by the stock of pollution that stems from the production process. A regulator can charge a tax on production, and the resources collected from taxation are used to reduce pollution. The resulting model consists of a two dimensional discrete dynamical system, and we study the role of taxation from both a static and a dynamical point of view. The focus is on the determination of the conditions under which taxation has a positive effect on the environment and leads to economic growth. Moreover, we show that a suitable environmental policy can allow recovering both local and global stability of the steady states. On the contrary, we show that, if the policy is not adequate, the system can exhibit endogenous oscillating and chaotic behavior and multistability phenomena

    Displaying risk in mergers: a diagrammatic approach for exchange ratio determination

    No full text
    This article extends, in a stochastic setting, previous results in the determination of feasible exchange ratios for merging companies. A first outcome is that shareholders of the companies involved in the merging process face both an upper and a lower bounds for acceptable exchange ratios. Secondly, in order for the improved `bargaining region' to be intelligibly displayed, the diagrammatic approach developed by Kulpa is exploited
