We show non-rigidity for the optimizers above a certain treshold, namely we prove that the best constant is achieved by a non-constant solution of the associated fourth-order elliptic problem under Neumann boundary conditions. Our arguments rely on asymptotic estimates of the Rayleigh quotient. We also show rigidity below another treshold.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-03-25T12:46:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "neumann boundary conditions", "paneitz-branson type equation", "best constant", "associated fourth-order elliptic problem", "second order" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 23, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
