Abstract:

Under general $p,q$-growth conditions, we prove that the Dirichlet problem \begin{equation} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \sum_{i=1}^{{n}\frac{\partial} }{\partial x_{i}}a^{i}(x,Du)=b(x) & \quad \text{in}\,\Omega , \\ u=u_{0} & \quad \text{on}\,\partial \Omega% \end{array}% \right. \end{equation} has a weak solution $u\in W_{\mathrm{loc}}^{1,q}\left( \Omega \right) $ under the assumptions \begin{equation} 1<p\leq q\leq p+1\quad \text{and}\quad q<p\frac{n-1}{n-p}\,. \end{equation}% More regularity applies. Precisely, this solution is also in the class $W_{\text{loc}}^{1,\infty }(\Omega )\cap {W_{\text{loc}}^{2,2}(\Omega )}$.

Keywords: Lipschitz regularity, Elliptic equation, existence of solutions, $p,q$-growth conditions
