In this paper, we establish the existence results for second order singular Dirichlet problems via variational methods. Some recent results are extended and improved. Examples are also given to illustrate the new results.

In this paper, we study singular Dirichlet boundary value problems involving ϕ-Laplacian. Using fixed point index theory, the existence of positive solutions is established under the assumption that the nonlinearity f = f(u) has a positive falling zero and is either superlinear or sublinear at u = 0.

The precise form of singular functions, singular function representation and the extraction form for the stress intensity factor play an important role in the singular function methods to deal with the domain singularities for the Poisson problems with most common boundary conditions, e.q. Dirichlet or Mixed boundary condition [2, 4]. In this paper we give an elementary step to get the singular functions of the solution for Poisson problem with Neumann boundary condition or Robin boundary condition. We also give singular function representation and the extraction form for the stress intensity with a result showing the number of singular functions depending on the boundary conditions.

We prove the existence of 2N-1 distinct ordered positive solutions of a class of semilinear elliptic Dirichlet boundary value problems on Rn when the forcing term has N distinct positive stable zeros and the coefficient function decaying to the zero at infinity.

In this paper we intended to discuss the following topics: (1) Notation, generalities, Markov processes. The close relationship between (generators of) Markov processes and the martingale problem is exhibited. A link between the Korovkin property and generators of Feller semigroups is established. (2) Feynman-Kac semigroups: 0-order regular perturbations, pinned Markov measures. A basic representation via distributions of Markov processes is depicted. (3) Dirichlet semigroups: 0-order singular perturbations, harmonic functions, multiplicative functionals. Here a representation theorem of solutions to the heat equation is depicted in terms of the distributions of the underlying Markov process and a suitable stopping time. (4) Sets of finite capacity, wave operators, and related results. In this section a number of results are presented concerning the completeness of scattering systems (and its spectral consequences). (5) Some (abstract) problems related to Neumann semigroups: 1st order perturbations. In this section some rather abstract problems are presented, which lie on the borderline between first order perturbations together with their boundary limits (Neumann type boundary conditions and) and reflected Markov processes.
