Principal eigenvalues of a class of nonlinear integro-differential operators

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We consider a class of nonlinear integro-differential operators and prove existence of two principal (half) eigenvalues in bounded smooth domains with exterior Dirichlet condition. We then establish simplicity of the principal eigenfunctions in viscosity sense, maximum principles, continuity property of the principal eigenvalues with respect to domains etc. We also prove an anti-maximum principle and study existence result for some nonlinear problem via Rabinowitz bifurcation-type results.


The author considers a nonlinear integro-differential equation (in bounded smooth domains with exterior Dirichlet condition) governed by the supremum of certain linear operators with nonsmooth coefficients, and study the associated eigenvalue problems. Existence and uniqueness results, maximum and anti-maximum principles are obtained. In addition, an existence result for certain nonlinear problems involving nonlocal Pucci's operators via Rabinowitz bifurcation-type results is also included.
