Continuity properties on p for p-Laplacian parabolic problems

In this work we obtain some continuity properties on the parameter p at p = 2 for the Takeuchi-Yamada problem which is a degenerate p-Laplacian version of the Chafee-Infante problem. We prove the continuity of the flows and the equilibrium sets, and the upper semicontinuity of the global attractors. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Reduction of infinite dimensional systems to finite dimensions: Compact convergence approach

We consider parameter dependent semilinear evolution problems for which, at the limit value of the parameter, the problem is finite dimensional. We introduce an abstract functional analytic framework that applies to many problems in the existing literature for which the study of asymptotic dynamics can be reduced to finite dimensions via the invariant manifolds technique. Some practical models are considered to show wide applicability of the theory. © 2013 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics.

Lap number properties for p-Laplacian problems investigated by Lyapunov methods

In this work we consider a one-dimensional quasilinear parabolic equation and we prove that the lap number of any solution cannot increase through orbits as the time passes if the initial data is a continuous function. We deal with the lap number functional as a Lyapunov function, and apply lap number properties to reach an understanding on the asymptotic behavior of a particular problem.
