Nonlinear PDEs: Elliptic equations

Additional Info

  • ECTS credits: 5
  • University: Leibniz University Hannover
  • Semester: 3
  • Objectives:

     

    Various natural phenomena can be described by partial differential equations.
    For realistic models the equations are mostly nonlinear. In this lecture
    existence results for nonlinear elliptic boundary value problems
    are presented based on fixed point methods and variational methods.

  • Topics:

     

    Fixed point theorems of Schauder and Leray-Schauder
    The direct method of calculus of variations
    Mountain-Pass Lemma
    Sub-supersolution method
