Uniqueness and radial symmetry for an inverse elliptic equation
We consider an inverse rearrangement semilinear partial differential equation in a 2-dimensional ball and show that it has a unique maximizing energy solution. The solution represents a confined steady flow containing a vortex and passing over a seamount. Our approach is based on a rearrangement var...

Summary: | We consider an inverse rearrangement semilinear partial
differential equation in a 2-dimensional ball and show that it
has a unique maximizing energy solution. The solution represents
a confined steady flow containing a vortex and passing over a
seamount. Our approach is based on a rearrangement variational
principle extensively developed by G. R. Burton. |
