Existence of solutions to resonant elliptic boundary value problems with unbounded discontinuous nonlinearities (Q642055): Difference between revisions

This paper is concerned with existence results for semiregular solutions to resonant elliptic problems with discontinuous sublinear nonlinearities. More exactly, the author investigates the elliptic equation \({\mathcal L}u+g(x,u)=0\) posed in a bounded and smooth domain \(\Omega\) of \(R^n\), \(n\geq 2\). Here \({\mathcal L}\) is a general uniformly elliptic and self-adjoint differential operator and \(g\) is a Borel discontinuous function satisfying \(g(x,u)\leq a(x)+b|u|^r\) for a.e. \(x\in \Omega\) where \(0\leq r<1\). The equation is complemented with a linear combination with variable coefficients between Dirichlet and Neumann conditions on the boundary. The requirement for \(g\) suggested by the author as a generalized Landesman-Lazer condition is \(\lim_{\|\psi\|\rightarrow 0, \psi\in \text{Ker}({\mathcal L})}\frac{1}{\|\psi\|^{2r}}\int_{\Omega}dx\int 0^{\psi(x)} g(x,s)ds=+\infty\).
