Existence of weak solutions for nonlinear elliptic systems on $\mathbb{R}^N$

Eada A. El-Zahrani, Hassan M. Serag

Abstract:
In this paper, we consider the nonlinear elliptic system
$$\displaylines{ -\Delta_pu=a(x)|u|^{p-2}u-b(x)|u|^\alpha|v|^\beta v+f,\cr -\Delta_qv=-c(x)|u|^\alpha |v|^\beta u + d(x) |v|^{q-2}v +g ,\cr \lim_{|x|\to\infty}u=\lim_{|x|\to\infty}v=0\quad u,v>0 }$$
on a bounded and unbounded domains of $\mathbb{R}^N$, where $\Delta_p$ denotes the p-Laplacian. The existence of weak solutions for these systems is proved using the theory of monotone operators
