Abstract

We consider, for a bounded open domain Ω in Rn and a function u : Ω → Rm, the quasilinear elliptic system: (1). We generalize the system (QES)(f,g) in considering a right hand side depending on the jacobian matrix Du. Here, the star in (QES)(f,g) indicates that f may depend on Du. In the right hand side, v belongs to the dual space W-1,P’(Ω, ω*, Rm), , f and g satisfy some standard continuity and growth conditions. We prove existence of a regularity, growth and coercivity conditions for σ, but with only very mild monotonicity assumptions.

Highlights

  • In this paper, the main point is that we do not require monotonicity in the strict monotonicity of a typical Leray-Lions operator as it is usually assumed in previous papers

  • The Ball theorem [1] and especially the resulting tool mode available by Hungerbühler to partial differential equation theory give them a sufficient control on the gradient approximating sequence Duk to pass to the limit

  • Visik [9] and mainly by Hungurbühler to get the existence of a weak solution for the quasi-linear elliptic system [10]

Summary

Introduction

The main point is that we do not require monotonicity in the strict monotonicity of a typical Leray-Lions operator as it is usually assumed in previous papers The aims of this text are to prove analogous existence results under relaxed monotonicity, in particular under strict quasi-monotonicity. The Ball theorem [1] and especially the resulting tool mode available by Hungerbühler to partial differential equation theory give them a sufficient control on the gradient approximating sequence Duk to pass to the limit. This method is used by Dolzmann [2], G. This kind of problems finds its applications in the model of Thomas-Fermis in atomic physics [12], and porous flow modeling in reservoir [13]
