Review text

This paper is devoted to the study of weak solutions \(u=(u^1, \dots, u^N)\) of the following system of 2nd-order quasilinear elliptic equations in divergence form NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\text{div} \bigl(A^j(x,u, \nabla u)\bigr)=B^j (x,u,\nabla u), \quad j=1,\dots, N,\tag{1}NEWLINE\]NEWLINE in a bounded domain \(\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n\), \(n\geq 2\). Moreover, the author considers the obstacle problem for the following system of variational inequalities: NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\sum^N_{j=1} \int_\Omega A^j(x,u, \nabla u) \cdot \nabla(u^j- u^i)dx+ \sum^N_{j=1} \int_\Omega B^j(x,u,\nabla u)\cdot (u^j-v^j) dx\leq 0\tag{2}NEWLINE\]NEWLINE for all \(v=(v^1, \dots,v^N)\) satisfying \(v\geq\psi\) in \(\Omega\) and \(v=u\) on \(\partial\Omega\). The solution \(u=(u^1, \dots,u^N)\) is required to satisfy \(u\geq\psi\) on \(\Omega\). The author proves that weak solutions of the system (1) as well as (2) are locally bounded and differentiable almost everywhere in the classical series.
