β¦ Synopsis
We provide explicit criteria for uniqueness or nonuniqueness of solutions to a wide class of second order elliptic and parabolic problems. The operator coefficients may be unbounded or vanish, or not to have a limit when approaching some part of the boundary, referred to as singular boundary. We discuss whether boundary conditions should be imposed on such a part to ensure well-posedness. The answer depends on the dimension of the singular boundary, and possibly on the behavior of coefficients near it.

## Abstract In this paper we consider a new rod equation derived recently by Dai [Acta Mech. **127** No. 1β4, 193β207 (1998)] for a compressible hyperelastic material. We establish local wellβposedness for regular initial data and explore various sufficient conditions of the initial data which guar
We investigate the existence, multiplicity and bifurcation of solutions of a model nonlinear degenerate elliptic differential equation: &x 2 u"=\*u+ |u| p&1 u in (0, 1); u(0)=u(1)=0. This model is related to a simplified version of the nonlinear Wheeler DeWitt equation as it appears in quantum cosmo
In this paper we prove an a posteriori error estimate for the symmetric coupling of finite elements and boundary elements applied to linear parabolic-elliptic interface problems. The discontinuous Galerkin method is used for the discretization in time. We present an adaptive algorithm for choosing t
