Abstract: This paper investigates a class of strongly indefinite Choquard equations formulated on the two-dimensional unit ball \(B\). Specifically, consider the following equation: \[\begin{cases}-\Delta u+V(x)u=(I_{\mu}\ast F(u))f(u), &x\in B, \\ u\in H^1_{0,\mathrm{rad}}(B), & \end{cases}\] where \(\mu\in(0,2)\) and \(I_{\mu}\) represents the classical Riesz potential. A fundamental hypothesis is that zero lies within a spectral gap of the Schrödinger operator \(-\Delta+V\). Furthermore, the continuous nonlinearity \(f(t)\) is characterized by a supercritical exponential growth governed by \(\exp[(\beta+|x|^{\alpha})t^{2}]\) with \(\beta, \alpha\gt 0\). Most existing works on this problem are limited to the subcritical or critical exponential growth cases. However, dealing with supercritical growth is much more difficult, especially when estimating the exact upper bound of the minimax levels. To overcome this, we use an approximation method and fine estimates to prove that this indefinite problem has a positive ground state solution.

To facilitate the analysis, the equation is transformed, via a positive solution of an auxiliary second-order ordinary differential equation, into a binomial form. By employing the comparison and integral averaging techniques together with the arithmetic-geometric mean inequality, we establish new sufficient conditions for the oscillation of all solutions.

]]> Recently, Qi S. Zhang provided examples of solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations which, under suitable hypotheses, blow-up in finite time. He considers axially symmetric solutions in a cylinder \(D\) under appropriate boundary conditions and under the effect of supercritical external forces \(f\). In its main result Zhang exhibits, for each \(q\lt\infty\), a blow-up solution with suitable \(f\in L^q(0,T;L^1(D))\). Following Zhang, we construct blow-up solutions with forcing terms in the space \(L^q(0,T;L^p(D))\), for suitable pairs \((q,p)\). In particular our results contain Zhang's result and provide blow-up examples along the supercritical curve \[\frac{2}{q}+\frac{3}{p}=\frac{7}{2}, \quad 1\leq p\lt 2, \] thereby approaching the classical endpoint \(f\in L^1(0,T;L^2(D))\). A particularly significant case is the existence of external forces \(f \in L^q(0,T;L^p(D))\), for every \(p\lt 2\) and some well determined \(q(p)\gt 1\), for which singularities occur in a finite time. The significant case \(f \in L^1(0,T;L^2(D))\), which corresponds to the classical definition of weak solution, remains open.

]]> This paper focuses on the following planar Schrödinger-Poisson system with critical exponential growth and nonlocal interaction \[\begin{cases}-\Delta u+\lambda u+\mu(\log|\cdot|*u^2)u = \gamma \left( I_\alpha * |u|^q \right) |u|^{q-2} u+\left(e^{u^2}-1-u^2\right)u, & x\in \mathbb{R}^2, \\ \displaystyle \int_{\mathbb{R}^2}u^2\mathrm{d}x=c,\end{cases}\] where \(c\gt 0\), \(\mu,\gamma\gt 0\), \(\lambda \in \mathbb{R}\) appears as a Lagrange multiplier, \(\alpha \in (0,2)\), \(1+\frac{\alpha}{2} \leq q \lt +\infty\), \( I_\alpha:\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}\) denotes the Riesz potential and \(1+\frac{\alpha}{2}\) is the lower critical exponent with respect to the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality. Through delicate energy estimates, under explicit conditions on \(c\), we prove the existence of two normalized solutions: one is a local minimizer and the other is of mountain-pass type. The presence of the logarithmic kernel and the competition between the two nonlocal terms necessitates the development of new tools to address the loss of compactness caused by the critical exponential growth, for which the variational techniques developed for the local problem are no longer applicable.

Title: Normalized solutions for planar Schrödinger-Poisson system with critical exponential growth and nonlocal interaction.

Author(s): Chenlu Wei, Sitong Chen, Muhua Shu.

Abstract: This paper focuses on the following planar Schrödinger-Poisson system with critical exponential growth and nonlocal interaction \[\begin{cases}-\Delta u+\lambda u+\mu(\log|\cdot|*u^2)u = \gamma \left( I_\alpha * |u|^q \right) |u|^{q-2} u+\left(e^{u^2}-1-u^2\right)u, & x\in \mathbb{R}^2, \\ \displaystyle \int_{\mathbb{R}^2}u^2\mathrm{d}x=c,\end{cases}\] where \(c\gt 0\), \(\mu,\gamma\gt 0\), \(\lambda \in \mathbb{R}\) appears as a Lagrange multiplier, \(\alpha \in (0,2)\), \(1+\frac{\alpha}{2} \leq q \lt +\infty\), \( I_\alpha:\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}\) denotes the Riesz potential and \(1+\frac{\alpha}{2}\) is the lower critical exponent with respect to the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality. Through delicate energy estimates, under explicit conditions on \(c\), we prove the existence of two normalized solutions: one is a local minimizer and the other is of mountain-pass type. The presence of the logarithmic kernel and the competition between the two nonlocal terms necessitates the development of new tools to address the loss of compactness caused by the critical exponential growth, for which the variational techniques developed for the local problem are no longer applicable. Our work not only generalizes the special case \(\gamma=0\), but also provides an analytical approach that is applicable to more \(L^2\)-constrained problems with competing nonlocal terms modelling long-range attraction in particle physics.

Title: On the existence of independent (1,k)-dominating sets for k\in\{1,2\} in two products of graphs.

Author(s): Paweł Bednarz, Adrian Michalski, Natalia Paja.

Abstract: A subset \(J\) of vertices is said to be a \((1,k)\)-dominating set if every vertex \(v\) not belonging to the set \(J\) has a neighbour in \(J\) and there exists also another vertex in \(J\) within the distance at most \(k\) from \(v\). In this paper, we study the problem of the existence of independent \((1,k)\)-dominating sets for \(k\in\{1,2\}\) in the tensor product and in the strong product of two graphs. We give complete characterisations of these graph products, which have independent \((1,1)\)-dominating sets or independent \((1,2)\)-dominating sets, with respect to the properties of their factors.
Keywords: dominating set, independent set, multiple domination, secondary domination, tensor product, strong product.

]]> In this note, we prove that every graph can be edge-labelled with red labels \(1,2\) and blue labels \(1,2\) so that vertices with any sum of incident red labels induce a \(1\)-degenerate graph, while vertices with any sum of incident blue labels induce a \(0\)-degenerate graph. This result stands as a closer step towards the so-called Standard \((2,2)\)-Conjecture (stating that \(0\)-degeneracy can be achieved in both colours), and provides some insight on the surrounding field, which covers the 1-2-3 Conjecture, the 1-2 Conjecture, and other close problems. Along the way, we also describe how many related problems are interconnected, and raise new problems and questions for further work on the topic. https://www.opuscula.agh.edu.pl/vol46/2/art/opuscula_math_4606.pdf Some remarks and results on the Standard (2,2)-Conjecture Olivier Baudon Julien Bensmail Lyn Vayssieres 1-2-3 Conjecture, 1-2 Conjecture, proper labelling, labelling doi:10.7494/OpMath.202602101 Opuscula Math. 46, no. 2 (2026), 127-137, https://doi.org/10.7494/OpMath.202602101 Opuscula Mathematica 2026 2026 https://doi.org/10.7494/OpMath.202602101 https://www.opuscula.agh.edu.pl/vol46/2/art/opuscula_math_4606.pdf 46 2 127 137
