About the Lab

Professor Jong-Rak Lee's research lab specializes in nonlinear analysis, particularly focusing on elliptic and quasilinear partial differential equations involving p-Laplacian and fractional p(·)-Laplacian operators. The lab investigates the existence and multiplicity of weak solutions using variational methods, such as the mountain pass theorem and fountain theorem, often under nonstandard growth conditions or without the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition. A significant part of the work also involves the spectral and structural properties of Toeplitz operators on Bergman and Hardy spaces, especially their hyponormality and complex symmetry. The lab combines functional analysis, operator theory, and critical point theory to address challenging problems in nonlinear PDEs and operator algebras.

We consider the existence of at least two or three distinct weak solutions for the nonlinear elliptic equations $$ \textstyle\begin{cases} {-}\operatorname{div}(\varphi(x,\nabla u))+{|u|}^{p-2}u= \lambda f(x,u) &\mbox{in } \Omega,\\ \varphi(x,\nabla u) \frac{\partial u}{\partial n}= \lambda g(x,u) & \mbox{on }\partial\Omega. \end{cases} $$ Here the function $\varphi(x,v)$ is of type $|v|^{p-2}v$ and the functions f, g satisfy a Carathéodory condition. To do this, we give some critical point theo

Complex symmetric Toeplitz operators on the weighted Bergman space
Eungil Ko, Ji Eun Lee, Jongrak Lee, Jongrak Lee, Jongrak Lee
SJR Q2Complex Variables and Elliptic Equations

In this paper, we give a characterization of a complex symmetric Toeplitz operator Tφ on the weighted Bergman space Aα2(D). We first give properties of complex symmetric Toeplitz operators Tφ on Aα2(D). Next, we prove that if Tφ is complex symmetric with finite symbol, then Tφ is hyponormal on Aα2(D) if and only if it is hyponormal on the Hardy space H2(T). Finally, we consider the complex symmetric Toeplitz operator Tφ on Aα2(D) when the conjugation is a special case.

In this paper, we give a characterization of normality of Toeplitz operator Tφ on the Bergman space A2(D). First, we state basic properties for Toeplitz operator Tφ on A2(D). Next, we consider the normal Toeplitz operator Tφ on A2(D) in terms of harmonic symbols φ. Finally, we characterize the normal Toeplitz operators Tφ with non-harmonic symbols acting on A2(D).
