Uniqueness and a priori estimates for some nonlinear elliptic Neumann equations in ℝ3

Juncheng Wei and Xingwang Xu

Vol. 221 (2005), No. 1, 159–165
Abstract

Under some conditions on f(u), we show that for λ small and Ω ⊂ ℝ3 convex, the only solution to the elliptic equation Δu − λu + f(u) = 0 in Ω, with u > 0 in Ω and ∂u∕∂ν = 0 on ∂Ω, is constant.

Keywords
