Abstract

Let Lu=-∑i,j=1Naij(x,u)Diju+c(x,u)u. Consider the quasilinear elliptic equation Lu=f(x,u,∇u) on a bounded smooth domain Ω in ℝN, where c(x,r)<α>0, f(x,r,ξ)=o[|r|+h(|r|)|ξ|2]. It is shown that if the oscillation of aij(x,r) with respect to r is sufficiently small, then there exists a solution u∈W2,p(Ω)∩W0 1,p(Ω) to the equation Lu=f(x,u,∇u).
