In this paper, we prove a Talenti-type comparison theorem for the p-Laplacian with Dirichlet boundary conditions on open subsets of a normalized RCD(K,N) space with K>0 and N∈(1,∞). The obtained ...Talenti-type comparison theorem is sharp, rigid and stable with respect to measured Gromov–Hausdorff topology. As an application of such Talenti-type comparison, we establish a sharp and rigid reverse Hölder inequality for first eigenfunctions of the p-Laplacian and a related quantitative stability result.
In this article, we construct simple and convergent finite element methods for linear and nonlinear elliptic differential equations in non-divergence form with discontinuous coefficients. The methods ...are motivated by discrete Miranda–Talenti estimates, which relate the H2 semi-norm of piecewise polynomials with the L2 norm of its Laplacian on convex domains. We develop a stability and convergence theory of the proposed methods, and back up the theory with numerical experiments.
In this paper we consider PDE’s problems involving the anisotropic Laplacian operator, with Robin boundary conditions. By means of Talenti techniques, widely used in the last decades, we prove a ...comparison result between the solutions of the above-mentioned problems and the solutions of the symmetrized ones. As a consequence of these results, a Bossel–Daners type inequality can be shown in dimension 2.
Abstract Let $$\Omega \subset \mathbb {R}^n$$ Ω ⊂ R n be an open, bounded and Lipschitz set. We consider the Poisson problem for the p -Laplace operator associated to $$\Omega $$ Ω with Robin ...boundary conditions. In this setting, we study the equality case in the Talenti-type comparison: we prove that the equality is achieved only if $$\Omega $$ Ω is a ball and both the solution u and the right-hand side f of the Poisson equation are radial and decreasing.
Nationality swapping in sports is commonly assumed to be a rapidly expanding practice that is indicative of the marketization of citizenship. Sports are said to have become wholesale markets in which ...talent is being traded for citizenship. In this article, we seek to empirically explore such claims by analysing 167 athletes who have competed for two different countries in the Summer Olympic Games. It seems that most switches occurred after the 1990s. Then, following a citizenship as a claims-making approach, we introduce the work of Bourdieu so as to connect citizenship as both legal status and practice with normative claims. The analysis reveals that the practice of nationality switching is shaped by structural conditions of the Olympic field. First, a complex realm of citizenship laws and regulations produces conditions under which athletes make legitimate claims to citizenship. Second, through a mechanism of reverberative causation, prior migrations are often echoed in contemporary nationality swapping . Only a limited number of athletes acquired citizenship via the explicit market principle we call jus talenti. Claiming that instrumental nationality swapping is indicative of the marketization of citizenship obscures the complex interplay between structures of and practices within the Olympic field.
In this paper, we present two type of contributions to the study of two-phases problems. In such problems, the main focus is on optimising a diffusion function $ a $ under $ L^\infty $ and $ L^1 $ ...constraints, this function $ a $ appearing in a diffusive term of the form $ -{{\nabla}} \cdot(a{{\nabla}}) $ in the model, in order to maximise a certain criterion. We provide a parabolic Talenti inequality and a partial bang-bang property in radial geometries for a general class of elliptic optimisation problems: namely, if a radial solution exists, then it must saturate, at almost every point, the $ L^\infty $ constraints defining the admissible class. This is done using an oscillatory method.

This paper presents a nonconforming finite element scheme for the planar biharmonic equation, which applies piecewise cubic polynomials (

·), which is usually not true for nonconforming finite element spaces, is proved. The finite element space does not correspond to a finite element defined with Ciarlet’s triple; however, it admits a set of locally supported basis functions and can thus be implemented by the usual routine. The notion of the finite element Stokes complex plays an important role in the analysis as well as the construction of the basis functions.
We investigate the Henon type equation involving the critical Sobolev exponent with Dirichret boundary condition $$ - \Delta u = \lambda \Psi u + | x |^\alpha u^{2^*-1} $$ in $\Omega$ included in a ...unit ball, under several conditions. Here, $\Psi$ is a non-trivial given function with $0 \leq \Psi \leq 1$ which may vanish on $\partial \Omega$. Let $\lambda_1$ be the first eigenvalue of the Dirichret eigenvalue problem $-\Delta \phi = \lambda \Psi \phi$ in $\Omega$. We show that if the dimension $N \geq 4$ and $0 < \lambda < \lambda_1$, there exists a positive solution for small $\alpha > 0$. Our methods include the mountain pass theorem and the Talenti function.

It is natural to try and rearrange the source term not only in space but also in time, and thus to investigate the existence of such a maximal element when we rearrange the function with respect to the two variables. In the present paper we prove that this is not possible.
