AbstractWe study the generalized eigenvalue problem in {\mathbb{R}^{N}} for a general convex nonlinear elliptic operator which is locally elliptic and positively 1-homogeneous. Generalizing [H. Berestycki and L. Rossi, Generalizations and properties of the principal eigenvalue of elliptic operators in unbounded domains, Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 68 2015, 6, 1014–1065], we consider three different notions of generalized eigenvalues and compare them. We also discuss the maximum principles and uniqueness of principal eigenfunctions.

Nozzle Flows

For investigating the steady irrotational isentropic flow of a perfect gas in two dimensions, the hodograph method is to determine in the first instance the position coordinates x, y and the stream function ψ as functions of velocity compoments, conveniently taken as q (the speed) and θ (direction angle). Inversion then gives ψ, q, θ as functions of x, y. The method has the great advantage that its field equations are linear, so that it is practicable to obtain exact solutions, and from any two solutions an infinity of others are obtainable by superposition. For problems of flow past fixed boundaries the linearity of the field equations is usually offset by non-linearity in the boundary conditions, but this objection does not arise in problems of transsonic nozzle design, where the rigid boundary is the end-point of the investigation.
