In this article, we consider some critical Brézis-Nirenberg problems in dimension $N \geq 3$ that do not have a solution. We prove that a supercritical perturbation can lead to the existence of a positive solution. More precisely, we consider the equation:

\begin{equation*}\left\{\begin{array}{rllll}-\Delta u & = & \lambda u^{q-1} + u^{2^*+ r^\alpha -1} & \mbox{in} & B, \\u & \gt & 0 & \mbox{in} & B, \\u&=&0 & \mbox{on} & \partial B,\\\end{array}\right.\end{equation*}

$B \subset \mathbb{R}^N$

$N\geq 3$

$r=\vert x \vert$

$\alpha \in (0,\min\{N/2,N-2\})$

$q\in [2,2^*]$

$r \in (0,1)$

To date, the bestmethodsfor estimating the growth of mean values of arithmetic functions rely on the Voronoï summation formula. By noticing a general pattern in the proof of his summation formula, Voronoï postulated that analogous summation formulas for $\sum a(n)f(n)$ can be obtained with ‘nice’ test functions f(n), provided a(n) is an ‘arithmetic function’. These arithmetic functions a(n) are called so because they are expected to appear as coefficients of some L-functions satisfying certain properties. It has been well-known that the functional equation for a general L-function can be used to derive a Voronoï-type summation identity for that L-function. In this article, we show that such a Voronoï-typesummation identity in fact endows the L-function with some structural properties, yielding in particular the functional equation. We do this by considering Dirichlet series satisfying functional equations involving multiple Gamma factors and show that a given arithmetic function appears as a coefficient of such a Dirichlet series if and only if it satisfies the aforementioned summation formulas.

We study global-in-time dynamics of the stochastic nonlinear beam equations (SNLB) with an additive space-time white noise, posed on the four-dimensional torus. The roughness of the noise leads us to introducing a time-dependent renormalization, after which we show that SNLB is pathwise locally well-posed in all subcritical and most of the critical regimes. For the (renormalized) defocusing cubic SNLB, we establish pathwise global well-posedness below the energy space, by adapting a hybrid argument of Gubinelli-Koch-Oh-Tolomeo (2022) that combines the I-method with a Gronwall-type argument. Lastly, we show almost sure global well-posedness and invariance of the Gibbs measure for the stochastic damped nonlinear beam equations in the defocusing case.

We prove interior boundedness and Hölder continuity for the weak solutions of nonlocal double phase equations in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$. This solves a problem raised by Palatucci and Piccinini et al. in 2022 and 2023 for the nonlinear integro-differential problems in Heisenberg setting. Our proof of the a priori estimates bases on De Giorgi–Nash–Moser theory, where the important ingredients are Caccioppoli-type inequality and Logarithmic estimate. To achieve this goal, we establish a new and crucial Sobolev–Poincaré type inequality in local domain, which may be of independent interest and potential applications.

In this work, the Riemann–Hilbert (RH) problem is employed to study the multiple high-order pole solutions of the cubic Camassa–Holm (cCH) equation with the term characterizing the effect of linear dispersion under zero boundary conditions and nonzero boundary conditions. Under the reflectionless situation, we generalize the residue theorem and obtain the multiple high-order pole solutions of cCH equation by solving an algebraic system. During the process of establishing the solution of RH problem, to simplify the calculations involving the implicitly expressed of variables (x, t) in the solution, we introduce a new scale (y, t) to ensure the solution of RH problem is explicitly expressed with respect to it. Finally, the exact solutions are obtained for cases involving one high-order pole and N high-order poles.

The article studies an initial boundary valueproblem (ibvp) for the radial solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation in a radially symmetric region $\Omega\in \mathbb R^n$ with boundaries. All such regions can be classified into three types: a ball Ω0 centred at origin, a region Ω1 outside a ball, and an n-dimensional annulus Ω2. To study the well-posedness of those ibvps, the function spaces for the boundary data must be specified in terms of the solutions in appropriate Sobolev spaces. It is shown that when $\Omega = \Omega_1$, the ibvp for the NLS equation is locally well-posed in $ C( [0, T^*]; H^s(\Omega_1))$ if the initial data is in $H^s(\Omega_1)$ and boundary data is in $ H^{\frac{2s+1}{4}}(0, T)$ with $s \geq 0$. This is the optimal regularity for the boundary data and cannot be improved. When $\Omega = \Omega_2$, the ibvp is locally well-posed in $ C( [0, T^*]; H^s(\Omega_2))$ if the initial data is in $ H^s(\Omega_2)$ and boundary data is in $ H^{\frac{s+1}{2}}(0, T)$ with $s \geq 0$. In this case, the boundary data requires $1/4$ more derivative compared to the case when $\Omega = \Omega_1$. When $\Omega = \Omega_0$ with n = 2 (the case with n > 2 can be discussed similarly), the ibvp is locally well-posed in $ C( [0, T^*]; H^s(\Omega_0))$ if the initial data is in $ H^s(\Omega_0)$ and boundary data is in $ H^{\frac{s+1}{2}}(0, T)$ with s > 1 (or $s \gt n/2$). Due to the lack of Strichartz estimates for the corresponding boundary integral operator with $ 0 \leq s \leq 1$, the local well-posedness can only be achieved for s > 1. It is noted that the well-posedness results on Ω0 and Ω2 are the first ones for the ibvp of NLS equations in bounded regions of higher dimension.

Consider a flow in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and let K be the biggest invariant subset of some compact region of interest $N \subseteq \mathbb{R}^3$. The set K is often not computable, but the way the flow crosses the boundary of N can provide indirect information about it. For example, classical tools such as Ważewski’s principle or the Poincaré–Hopf theorem can be used to detect whether K is non-empty or contains rest points, respectively. We present a criterion that can establish whether K has a non-trivial homology by looking at the subset of the boundary of N along which the flow is tangent to N. We prove that the criterion is as sharp as possible with the information it uses as an input. We also show that it is algorithmically checkable.

We introduce the notion of the equivariant covering type of a space X on which a finite group G acts and study its properties. The equivariant covering type measures the size of G-equivariant good covers of X and is thus an extension of the covering type of a space, introduced by Karoubi and Weibel. We show that the equivariant covering type is a G-homotopy invariant and describe its relation with other G-invariants, like the equivariant LS-category, G-genus, and the multiplicative structures of equivariant cohomology theories. We also compute the G-covering type of regular G-graphs, give estimates for orientation-preserving actions on surfaces and for the projectivizations of complex representations of G and cohomology spheres. As an application, we derive estimates of sizes of minimal G-triangulations for various G-spaces.

In a two-dimensional plane, entire solutions of the Allen–Cahn type equation with a finite Morse index necessarily have finite ends. In the case that the nonlinearity is a sine function, all the finite-end solutions have been classified. However, for the classical Allen–Cahn nonlinearity, the structure of the moduli space of these solutions remains unknown. We construct in this paper new finite-end solutions to the Allen–Cahn equation, which will be called fence of saddle solutions, by gluing saddle solutions together. Our construction can be generalized to the case of gluing multiple four-end solutions, with some of their ends being almost parallel.

The aim of this article is to study the asymptotic behaviour of non-autonomous stochastic lattice systems. We first show the existence and uniqueness of a pullback measure attractor. Moreover, when deterministic external forcing terms are periodic in time, we show the pullback measure attractors are periodic. We then study the upper semicontinuity of pullback measure attractors as the noise intensity goes to zero. Pullback asymptotic compact for a family of probability measures with respect to probability distributions of the solutions is demonstrated by using uniform a priori estimates for far-field values of solutions.

We study the real-valued modified KdV equation on the real line and the circle in both the focusing and the defocusing cases. By employing the method of commuting flows introduced by Killip and Vişan (2019), we prove global well-posedness in Hs for $0\leq s \lt \tfrac{1}{2}$. On the line, we show how the arguments in the recent article by Harrop-Griffiths, Killip, and Vişan (2020) may be simplified in the higher regularity regime $s\geq 0$. On the circle, we provide an alternative proof of the sharp global well-posedness in L2 due to Kappeler and Topalov (2005) and also extend this to the large-data focusing case.

We study density and partition properties of polynomial equations in prime variables. We consider equations of the form $a_1h(x_1) + \cdots + a_sh(x_s)=b$, where the ai and b are fixed coefficients and h is an arbitrary integer polynomial of degree d. We establish that the natural necessary conditions for this equation to have a monochromatic non-constant solution with respect to any finite colouring of the prime numbers are also sufficient when the equation has at least $(1+o(1))d^2$ variables. We similarly characterize when such equations admit solutions over any set of primes with positive relative upper density. In both cases, we obtain lower bounds for the number of monochromatic or dense solutions in primes that are of the correct order of magnitude. Our main new ingredient is a uniform lower bound on the cardinality of a prime polynomial Bohr set.

We identify a class of smooth Banach *-algebras that are differential subalgebras of commutative C*-algebras whose openness of multiplication is completely determined by the topological stable rank of the target C*-algebra. We then show that group algebras of Abelian groups of unbounded exponent fail to have uniformly open convolution. Finally, we completely characterize in the complex case (uniform) openness of multiplication in algebras of continuous functions in terms of the covering dimension.

We prove the existence of solutions to the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation with low regularity data in function spaces based on the Wiener algebra and in pseudomeasure spaces. In any spatial dimension, we allow the data to have its antiderivative in the Wiener algebra. In one spatial dimension, we also allow data that are in a pseudomeasure space of negative order. In two spatial dimensions, we also allow data that are in a pseudomeasure space one derivative more regular than in the one-dimensional case. In the course of carrying out the existence arguments, we show a parabolic gain of regularity of the solutions as compared to the data. Subsequently, we show that the solutions are in fact analytic at any positive time in the interval of existence.

For a positive integer $n \geq 2$, define tn to be the smallest number such that the additive energy E(A) of any subset $A \subset \{0,1,\cdots,n-1\}^d$ and any d is at most $|A|^{t_n}$. Trivially, we have $t_n \leq 3$ and

\begin{equation*} t_n \geq 3 - \log_n\frac{3n^3}{2n^3+n} \end{equation*}

by considering $A = \{0,1,\cdots,n-1\}^d$. In this note, we investigate the behaviour of tn for large n and obtain the following non-trivial bounds:

\begin{equation*} 3 - (1+o_{n\rightarrow\infty}(1)) \log_n \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{4} \leq t_n \leq 3 - \log_n(1+c), \end{equation*}

where c > 0 is an absolute constant.

In the present article, we study compact complex manifolds admitting a Hermitian metric which is strong Kähler with torsion (SKT) and Calabi–Yau with torsion (CYT) and whose Bismut torsion is parallel. We first obtain a characterization of the universal cover of such manifolds as a product of a Kähler Ricci-flat manifold with a Bismut flat one. Then, using a mapping torus construction, we provide non-Bismut flat examples. The existence of generalized Kähler structures is also investigated.

In this article, we explore the bifurcation problem of limit cycles near the double eight figure loop (compound cycle with a 2-polycycle connecting two homoclinic loops). A general theory is established to find the lower bound of the maximal number of limit cycles (isolated periodic orbits) near the double eight figure loop. The Liénard system, a well-known nonlinear dynamical model, appears in a natural way in physics, chemistry, engineering, and so on, where periodic phenomena play a relevant role. As an application, we investigate an $(n+1)$th-order generalized Liénard system and prove the system has at least $7[\frac{n}{6}]+2[\frac{r}{2}]-[\frac{r}{4}]$ limit cycles near the double eight figure loop for any $n\geq5$ and $r=\rm mod(n,6)$, and their distribution is also gained.

In this article, we study the following Dirichlet problem to the sub-linear Lane–Emden equation

\begin{equation*}\left\{\begin{array}{ll}-\Delta u=u^{p},\quad u(x)\geq0,\quad x\in\mathbb{R}^n_+, \\u(x)\equiv0,\quad x\in\partial\mathbb{R}^n_+,\end{array}\right.\end{equation*}

where $n\geq3$, $0 \lt p\leq1$. By establishing an equivalent integral equation, we give a lower bound of the Kelvin transformation $\bar{u}$. Then, by constructing a new comparison function, we apply the maximum principle based on comparisons and the method of moving planes to obtain that u only depends on xn. Based on this, we prove the non-existence of non-negative solutions.

We develop a new method suitable for establishing lower bounds on the ball measure of noncompactness of operators acting between considerably general quasinormed function spaces. This new method removes some of the restrictions oft-presented in the previous work. Most notably, the target function space need not be disjointly superadditive nor equipped with a norm. Instead, a property that is far more often at our disposal is exploited—namely the absolute continuity of the target quasinorm.

We use this new method to prove that limiting Sobolev embeddings into spaces of Brezis–Wainger type are so-called maximally noncompact, i.e. their ball measure of noncompactness is the worst possible.

We study the topological structure of the space $\mathcal{X}$ of isomorphism classes of metric measure spaces equipped with the box or concentration topologies. We consider the scale-change action of the multiplicative group ${\mathbb{R}}_+$ of positive real numbers on $\mathcal{X}$, which has a one-point metric measure space, say $*$, as only one fixed-point. We prove that the ${\mathbb{R}}_+$-action on $\mathcal{X}_* := \mathcal{X} \setminus \{*\}$ admits the structure of non-trivial and locally trivial principal ${\mathbb{R}}_+$-bundle over the quotient space. Our bundle ${\mathbb{R}}_+ \to \mathcal{X}_* \to \mathcal{X}_*/{\mathbb{R}}_+$ is a curious example of a non-trivial principal fibre bundle with contractible fibre. A similar statement is obtained for the pyramidal compactification of $\mathcal{X}$, where we completely determine the structure of the fixed-point set of the ${\mathbb{R}}_+$-action on the compactification.
