Abstract: We solve the nonlinear Dirichlet problem (uniquely) for functions with prescribed asymptotic singularities at a finite number of points, and with arbitrary continuous boundary data, on a domain in euclidean space. The main results apply, in particular, to subequations with a Riesz characteristic $pgeq2$. In this case it is shown that, without requiring uniform ellipticity, the Dirichlet problem can be solved uniquely for arbitrary continuous boundary data with singularities asymptotic to the Riesz kernel: $Thet{a}_j{K}_p(x-x_j)$, where $K_p(x)=-1over|x{|}^{p-2}$ for $p>2$ and $K_2(x)=log|x|$, at any prescribed finite set of points $x_1,\mathrm{...},x_k$ in the domain and any finite set of positive real numbers $Thet{a}_1,\mathrm{...},Thet{a}_k$. This sharpens a previous result of the authors concerning the discreteness of high-density sets of subsolutions. Uniqueness and existence results are also established for finite-type singularities such as $Thet{a}_j|x-x_j{|}^{2-p}$ for $1leqp<2$. The main results apply similarly with prescribed singularities asymptotic to the fundamental solutions of Armstrong-Sirakov-Smart (in the uniformly elliptic case).
