Dominated convergence 2.0?

Counterexample. Let $f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ denote your favourite test function with support in $(0,1)$ and with integral $1$. We define $f_n(x) := n f(nx)$ for all $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and all $ …

What do we learn from the Wronskian in the theory of linear ODEs?

For a real interval $I$ and a continuous function $A: I \to \mathbb{R}^{d\times d}$, let $(x_1, \dots, x_d)$ denote a basis of the solution space of the non-autonomous ODE $$ \dot x(t) = A(t) x(t) \ …

Are all positive eigenfunctions principal eigenfunctions?

Answer. Yes, for appropriate boundary conditions (e.g., Dirichlet or Neumann) the Laplace operator on bounded domains with sufficiently smooth boundary has no positive eigenfuntions, except for those …

Linear transport equation with Lipschitz conditions

The anwer is yes. Preliminary observations: Let us first consider the case $p=0$. Since $q$ is globally Lipschitz on $\mathbb{R}^n$, say with Lipschitz constant $L$, all solutions of the ODE $\dot x = …
