Existence of solutions for a non-variational system of elliptic PDE's via topological methods

Fethi Soltani, Habib Yazidi

Abstract:
In this article, we prove the existence of solutions for a non-variational system of elliptic PDE's. Also we study a system of bi-Laplacian equations with two nonlinearities and without variational assumptions. First, we prove a priori solution estimates, and then we use fixed point theory, to deduce the existence of solutions. Finally, to complement of the existence theorem, we establish a non-existence result.
