Convergence at infinity for solutions of nonhomogeneous degenerate elliptic equations in exterior domains

Abstract: In this work, first we prove that for any compact set

K s u b s e t m a t h b b R^{n}

and any continuous function

p h i

defined on

p a r t i a l K

, there exists a bounded weak solution in

to the exterior Dirichlet problem

�egin{cases} -{ m div}�ig(,|

abla u|^{p-2}A(,| abla u|,)

abla u,�ig)=f & ext{ in }, mathbb{R}^n �ackslash K ;;;;;; u = phi & ext{ on } partial K end{cases}

provided

p > n

,

A

satisfies some growth conditions and

f i n L^{i n f t y} (m a t h b b R^{n})

meets a suitable pointwise decay rate. We obtain thereafter the existence of the limit at the infinity for solutions to this problem, for any

p i n (1, + i n f t y)

and

n g e q 2

. Moreover, for

p > n

we can show that the solutions converge at some rate and for

p < n

the convergence holds even for some unbounded

f

.
