This study concerns the existence of positive solutions to classes of boundary value problems of the form−∆u = g(x,u), x ∈ Ω,u(x) = 0, x ∈ ∂Ω,where ∆ denote the Laplacian operator, Ω is a smooth bounded domain in RN (N ≥ 2) with ∂Ω of class C2, and connected, and g(x, 0) < 0 for some x ∈ Ω (semipositone problems). By using the method of sub-super solutions we prove the existence of positive solution to special types of g(x,u).

We are concerned with the following nonlinear three-point fractional boundary value problem:D0+αut+λatft,ut=0,0<t<1,u0=0, andu1=βuη, where1<α≤2,0<β<1,0<η<1,D0+αis the standard Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative,at>0is continuous for0≤t≤1, andf≥0is continuous on0,1×0,∞. By using Krasnoesel'skii's fixed-point theorem and the corresponding Green function, we obtain some results for the existence of positive solutions. At the end of this paper, we give an example to illustrate our main results.

AbstractWe prove the existence of non-negative martingale solutions to a class of stochastic degenerate-parabolic fourth-order PDEs arising in surface-tension driven thin-film flow influenced by thermal noise. The construction applies to a range of mobilites including the cubic one which occurs under the assumption of a no-slip condition at the liquid-solid interface. Since their introduction more than 15 years ago, by Davidovitch, Moro, and Stone and by Grün, Mecke, and Rauscher, the existence of solutions to stochastic thin-film equations for cubic mobilities has been an open problem, even in the case of sufficiently regular noise. Our proof of global-in-time solutions relies on a careful combination of entropy and energy estimates in conjunction with a tailor-made approximation procedure to control the formation of shocks caused by the nonlinear stochastic scalar conservation law structure of the noise.

Abstract In this study, we consider the following quasilinear Choquard equation with singularity − Δ u + V ( x ) u − u Δ u 2 + λ ( I α ∗ ∣ u ∣ p ) ∣ u ∣ p − 2 u = K ( x ) u − γ , x ∈ R N , u > 0 , x ∈ R N , \left\{\begin{array}{ll}-\Delta u+V\left(x)u-u\Delta {u}^{2}+\lambda \left({I}_{\alpha }\ast | u{| }^{p})| u{| }^{p-2}u=K\left(x){u}^{-\gamma },\hspace{1.0em}& x\in {{\mathbb{R}}}^{N},\\ u\gt 0,\hspace{1.0em}& x\in {{\mathbb{R}}}^{N},\end{array}\right. where I α {I}_{\alpha } is a Riesz potential, 0 < α < N 0\lt \alpha \lt N , and N + α N < p < N + α N − 2 \displaystyle \frac{N+\alpha }{N}\lt p\lt \displaystyle \frac{N+\alpha }{N-2} , with λ > 0 \lambda \gt 0 . Under suitable assumption on V V and K K , we research the existence of positive solutions of the equations. Furthermore, we obtain the asymptotic behavior of solutions as λ → 0 \lambda \to 0 .

AbstractWe study the existence of positive solutions for fractional elliptic equations of the type (-Δ)1/2u = h(u), u > 0 in (-1,1), u = 0 in ℝ∖(-1,1) where h is a real valued function that behaves like eu2 as u → ∞ . Here (-Δ)1/2 is the fractional Laplacian operator. We show the existence of mountain-pass solution when the nonlinearity is superlinear near t = 0. In case h is concave near t = 0, we show the existence of multiple solutions for suitable range of λ by analyzing the fibering maps and the corresponding Nehari manifold.
