Abstract
In this paper, we study the optimal constant in the nonlocal Poincaré-Wirtinger inequality in (a, b) ⊂ R: λα(p, q, r) Z b a |u| q dxp q ≤ Z b a |u ′ | p dx + α Z b a |u| r−2u dx p r−1 , where α ∈ R, p, q, r > 1 such that 4 5 p ≤ q ≤ p and q 2 + 1 ≤ r ≤ q + q p . This problem can be casted as a nonlocal minimum problem, whose Euler-Lagrange associated equation contains an integral term of the unknown function over the whole interval of definition. Furthermore, the problem can be also seen as an eigenvalue problem. We show that there exists a critical value αC = αC (p, q, r) such that the minimizers are even with constant sign when α ≤ αC and are odd when α ≥ αC .I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
