Existence of solutions to nonlocal elliptic equations with discontinuous terms

Francisco Julio S. A. Correa, Rubia G. Nascimento

Abstract:
In this article, we study the existence of nonnegative solutions for the elliptic partial differential equation
$$\displaylines{ -[M(\|u\|^{p}_{1,p})]^{1,p}\Delta_{p}u = f(x,u) \quad\hbox{in } \Omega , \cr u = 0 \quad\hbox{on } \partial\Omega , }$$
where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ is a bounded smooth domain, $f:\overline{\Omega}\times \mathbb{R}^+\to \mathbb{R}$ is a discontinuous nonlinear function.
