NEUMANN PROBLEMS FOR NONLINEAR ELLIPTIC EQUATIONSINVOLVING VARIABLE EXPONENT AND MEASURE DATA
Mohamed Badr Benboubker, Stanislas Ouaro, Urbain Traore
This paper deals with the question of the existence of entropy solutions for the problem− div(a(x, u, ∇u) + φ(u)) + g(x, u, ∇u) = µ posed in an open bounded subset Ω of R^N with the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition (a(x, u, ∇u) + φ(u)) · η = 0. The functional setting involves Lebesgue and Sobolev spaces with variable exponent
