Abstract:In the present article we deal with the Dirichlet problem for a class of degenerate anisotropic elliptic second-order equations with L 1 -right-hand sides in a bounded domain of R n .n > 2/. This class is described by the presence of a set of exponents q 1 ; : : : ; q n and a set of weighted functions 1 ; : : : ; n in growth and coercitivity conditions on coefficients of the equations. The exponents q i characterize the rates of growth of the coefficients with respect to the corresponding derivatives of unknown function, and the functions i characterize degeneration or singularity of the coefficients with respect to independent variables. Our aim is to investigate the existence of entropy solutions of the problem under consideration.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
