Nonlinear Dirichlet problem and nonlinear integration (Q4444982)

Let \(F\) be a metrizable compact space, \(A\) a derivator on \(F\) (a map \(A\) from \({\mathcal D}\subseteq \mathbb{R}^F\) into \(\overline{\mathbb{R}}^F\) is called a derivator on \(F\) if for any \(x_0\in F\), \(u,v\in{\mathcal D}\) and \(u\leq v\) on \(F\) and \(u(x_0)= v(x_0)\) imply \(Au(x_0)\geq Av(x_0)\)). We formulate some of the theorems proved in the paper. Theorem 1.3. Suppose \(F\) partitioned in two subsets \(E\) and \(F\setminus E\). If \(u\), \(v\) are continuous functions and \(Au\) is finite, then 1) if we have \(u\leq v\) on \(F\setminus E\) and \(Au\leq Av\) on \(E\), we have \(u\leq v\) on \(F\); 2) if \(A\) is sub-Markovian and if the maximum of \(u-v\) is strictly positive, this maximum is attained on the adherence of \((F\setminus E)\cup\{Au> Av\}\). Writing in short \(D(E,f,\varphi)\) for the Dirichlet problem in \(u\in{\mathcal D}\), \[ Au= f\quad\text{on }E,\quad u=\varphi\quad\text{on }F\setminus E,\quad\varphi, f\in C(F). \] Theorem 1.5. If \(D(E,f,\varphi)\) has a (unique) solution \(V(f,\varphi)\in{\mathcal D}\) for any \(f,\varphi\in C\), then the map \((f,\varphi)\to V(f,\varphi)\) from \(C\times C\) into \({\mathcal D}\) is increasing in \(f\) and \(\varphi\), and continuous (for the uniform norm). Moreover, the author introduces the notion of the Luzin capacity and proves Theorem 4.2. If \(\gamma\) is a Luzin capacity, then \(\gamma_*\) is a Choquet capacity, and, on \({\mathfrak B}\), it is the unique Choquet capacity extending \(\gamma\), where \(\gamma_*\) is a interior capacity, and \({\mathfrak B}\) is the set of bounded Borel functions on \(E\).
