Abstract: We study the Dirichlet problem div(|ablau|p(x)2ablau)=0 in Omega, with u=f on partialOmega and p(x)=infty in D, a subdomain of the reference domain Omega. The main issue is to give a proper sense to what a solution is. To this end, we consider the limit as noinfty of the solutions un to the corresponding problem when pn(x)=p(x)wedgen, in particular, with pn=n in D. Under suitable assumptions on the data, we find that such a limit exists and that it can be characterized as the unique solution of a variational minimization problem which is, in addition, infty-harmonic within D. Moreover, we examine this limit in the viscosity sense and find the boundary value problem it satisfies in the whole of Omega.
