Nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations

From MaRDI portal





The subject of this textbook is related to the relationship between large classes (linear or nonlinear) of partial differential equations and the various phenomena described by them. This origins of this volume go back to the lectures notes of a Master 2 class held at the Université Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris VI) between 2004 and 2007. A selection of mathematical techniques geared towards the resolution of semilinear and quasilinear elliptic partial differential equations is presented. After a short introduction to the basic notions on real and functional analysis for PDEs, without proofs for the most well-known results, the author develops the main chapters of the book, which cover classical fixed point theorems, the superposition operators in Lebesgue and Sobolev spaces, the Galerkin method, the maximum principles and elliptic regularity, various aspects of the calculus of variations, and monotone and pseudo-monotone operators. Numerous examples and exercises illustrate throughout the volume the basic abstract notions and properties. This well-written book contains a large amount of material. It can be useful for graduate students and researchers interested in modern aspects of the calculus of variations with powerful applications to the qualitative analysis of partial differential equations.
