| Abstract: |
| In this talk we provide some new results for the monotonicity of the period of some nonlinear differential equations which are connected with a minimization problem on the circle.
The Euler-Lagrange equation for this problem turns out to be a nonlocal nonlinear differential equation containing the p-Laplace operator and we are looking for positive solutions on the circle. Under a suitable transformation this equation is transformed into one without local terms but with varying period |
