Positive solutions to sublinear elliptic problems

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let L be a second order elliptic operator L with smooth coefficients defined on a domain Omega in mathbbRd, dgeq3, such that L1leq0. We study existence and properties of continuous solutions to the following problem �egin{equation}label{00} Lu=varphi(cdot,u),% & hbox{in Omega; in the sens of distribution;} \ end{equation} in Omega, where Omega is a Greenian domain for L {(possibly unbounded)} in mathbbRd and varphi is a nonnegative function on Omegaimes[0,+infty[ increasing with respect to the second variable. By means of thinness, we obtain a characterization of varphi for which eqref{00} has a nonnegative nontrivial bounded solution.
