✦ 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. 1–4, 193–207 (1998)] for a compressible hyperelastic material. We establish local well‐posedness 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
