Asymptotic Behaviour of the Gradient of Large Solutions to Some Nonlinear Elliptic Equations
Porretta Alessio, Véron Laurent · Advanced Nonlinear Studies · 2006
Abstract If h is a nondecreasing real valued function and 0 ≤ q ≤ 2, we analyse the boundary behaviour of the gradient of any solution u of −Δu + h(u) + |∇u| q = f in a smooth N-dimensional domain Ω with the condition that u tends to infinity when x tends to ∂Ω. We give precise expressions of the blow-up which, in particular, point out the fact that the phenomenon occurs essentially in the normal direction to ∂Ω. Motivated by the blow-up argument in our proof, we also give a symmetry result for some related problems in the half space.
