Abstract
Nirenberg proposed a problem as to whether or not a continuous and expansive operator (where is a Hilbert space) is surjective if . I shall give a positive answer for the problem provided that is unbounded. For contents related to this paper, the reader is referred to the remarks and the study of Asfaw (2021). The present paper gives a complete answer for the problem that has been open for about 47 years.
期刊介绍:
Abstract and Applied Analysis is a mathematical journal devoted exclusively to the publication of high-quality research papers in the fields of abstract and applied analysis. Emphasis is placed on important developments in classical analysis, linear and nonlinear functional analysis, ordinary and partial differential equations, optimization theory, and control theory. Abstract and Applied Analysis supports the publication of original material involving the complete solution of significant problems in the above disciplines. Abstract and Applied Analysis also encourages the publication of timely and thorough survey articles on current trends in the theory and applications of analysis.
