The Sub-Supersolution Method and Extremal Solutions of Quasilinear Elliptic Equations in Orlicz-Sobolev Spaces

We prove the existence of extremal solutions of the following quasilinear elliptic problem -∑i=1N∂/∂xiai(x,u(x),Du(x))+g(x,u(x),Du(x))=0 under Dirichlet boundary condition in Orlicz-Sobolev spaces W01LM(Ω) and give the enclosure of solutions. The differential part is driven by a Leray-Lions operator...

description We prove the existence of extremal solutions of the following quasilinear elliptic problem -∑i=1N∂/∂xiai(x,u(x),Du(x))+g(x,u(x),Du(x))=0 under Dirichlet boundary condition in Orlicz-Sobolev spaces W01LM(Ω) and give the enclosure of solutions. The differential part is driven by a Leray-Lions operator in Orlicz-Sobolev spaces, while the nonlinear term g:Ω×R×RN→R is a Carathéodory function satisfying a growth condition. Our approach relies on the method of linear functional analysis theory and the sub-supersolution method.
