Abstract: In this article, we report the results we obtained when investigating the numerical solution of some nonlinear eigenvalue problems for the Monge-Amp`{e}re operator vightarrowdetmathbfD2v. The methodology we employ relies on the following ingredients: (i) A divergence formulation of the eigenvalue problems under consideration. (ii) The time discretization by operator-splitting of an initial value problem (a kind of gradient flow) associated with each eigenvalue problem. (iii) A finite element approximation relying on spaces of continuous piecewise affine functions. To validate the above methodology, we applied it to the solution of problems with known exact solutions: The results we obtained suggest convergence to the exact solution when the space discretization step hightarrow0. We considered also test problems with no known exact solutions.
