An Eigenvalue problem for the Infinity-Laplacian

Tilak Bhattacharya, Leonardo Marazzi · DOAJ (DOAJ: Directory of Open Access Journals) · 2012

In this work, we study an eigenvalue problem for the infinity-Laplacian on bounded domains. We prove the existence of the principal eigenvalue and a corresponding positive eigenfunction. This work also contains existence results, related to this problem, when a parameter is less than the first eigenvalue. A comparison principle applicable to these problems is also proven. Some additional results are shown, in particular, that on star-shaped domains and on C^2 domains higher eigenfunctions change sign. When the domain is a ball, we prove that the first eigenfunction has one sign, radial principal eigenfunction exist and are unique up to scalar multiplication, and that there are infinitely many eigenvalues.
