The Dirichlet problem for sublinear elliptic equations with source

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We present a necessary and sufficient condition on nonnegative Radon measures mu and u for the existence of a positive continuous solution of the Dirichlet problem for the sublinear elliptic equation −Deltau=muuq+u with prescribed nonnegative continuous boundary data in a general domain. Moreover, two-sided pointwise estimates of Brezis-Kamin type for positive bounded solutions and the uniqueness of a positive continuous Lq-solution are investigated.


The Dirichlet problem for \(-\Delta u =\mu u^q + \nu\) with prescribed nonnegative continuous boundary data in a general domain is considered, where \(\mu\) and \(\nu\) are nonnegative Radon measures and \(0<q<1\). A necessary and sufficient condition is derived for the existence of a positive continuous solution. Two-sided pointwise estimates of Brezis-Kamin-type for positive bounded solutions and the uniqueness of positive continuous \(L^q\) solutions are also established.
