Existence of radially symmetric solutions of the inhomogeneous \(p\)-Laplace equation (Q511353): Difference between revisions

The authos considers the Dirichlet problem for the inhomogeneous \(p\)-Laplace equation with nonlinear source \[ -\operatorname{div}(|\nabla u|^{p-2} \nabla u) = c(|x|) g(u) + f(|x|)\quad\text{in}\quad B_R \subset \mathbb R^n, \] where \(B_R\) is the ball of radius \(R\), \(p>1\). A priori estimates of the solutions and the gradient of the solutions as well as new sufficient conditions for the existence of weak bounded radially symmetric solutions are established. An explicit formula is obtained which shows the dependence of the existence of these solutions on the dimension of the problem, the size of the domain, the exponent \(p\), the nonlinear source, and the exterior mass force.
