Solvability of perturbed elliptic equations with critical growth exponent for the gradient (Q582451)

A Dirichlet elliptic boundary value problem is considered in a bounded domain. Under certain assumptions (which are too numerous to state here) it is proved that the boundary value problem is weakly solvable. The approach in this paper does not require a priori regularity of the solution except for a standard bound in a suitable Sobolev space. Related results of Boccardo et al., and Del Vecchio are mentioned.
