Classification of nonnegative classical solutions to third-order equations (Q1705479): Difference between revisions

The authors are concerned with third-order equations with critical or subcritical nonlinearities. By applying the Kelvin transform and the method of moving planes to the third-order, they prove that nonnegative classical solutions are radially symmetric around some point and unique in the critical case. Moreover, they prove the non-existence of nontrivial nonnegative classical solutions in the subcritical cases. The results are interesting.
