“…Also, they obtained an explicit and general decay rate, depending on σ, g and φ, for the energy of solutions of (1.1) without any growth assumption on g and φ at the origin, and on σ at infinity. Also, the following problem 2) where is a bounded region in R n (n ≥ 1), with a smooth boundary ∂ , was considered by many authors. For instance, in the case when f (u) = |u| p−2 u, g(u t ) = |u t | m−2 u t , m, p > 2, Nakao [70] showed that (1.2) has a unique global weak solution if 0 ≤ p − 2 ≤ 2/(n − 2), n ≥ 3 and a global unique strong solution if p −2 > 2/(n −2), n ≥ 3.…”
