In this paper, we consider the following coupled gradient-type quasilinear elliptic system $$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{*{20}l} - {\text{div}} ( a(x, u, \nabla u) ) + A_t (x, u, \nabla u) = G_u(x, u, v) &{}{\hbox { in }}\Omega ,\\ - {\text{div}} ( b(x, v, \nabla v) ) + B_t(x, v, \nabla v) = G_v\left( x, u, v\right) &{}{\hbox { in }}\Omega ,\\ u = v = 0 &{}{\hbox { on }}\partial \Omega , \end{array} \right. \end{aligned}$$ - div ( a ( x , u , ∇ u ) ) + A t ( x , u , ∇ u ) = G u ( x , u , v ) in Ω , - div ( b ( x , v , ∇ v ) ) + B t ( x , v , ∇ v ) = G v x , u , v in Ω , u = v = 0 on ∂ Ω , where $$\Omega$$ Ω is an open bounded domain in $${\mathbb {R}}^N$$ R N , $$N\ge 2$$ N ≥ 2 . We suppose that some $$\mathcal {C}^{1}$$ C 1 –Carathéodory functions $$A, B:\Omega \times {\mathbb {R}}\times {\mathbb {R}}^N\rightarrow {\mathbb {R}}$$ A , B : Ω × R × R N → R exist such that $$a(x,t,\xi ) = \nabla _{\xi } A(x,t,\xi )$$ a ( x , t , ξ ) = ∇ ξ A ( x , t , ξ ) , $$A_t(x,t,\xi ) = \frac{\partial A}{\partial t} (x,t,\xi )$$ A t ( x , t , ξ ) = ∂ A ∂ t ( x , t , ξ ) , $$b(x,t,\xi ) = \nabla _{\xi } B(x,t,\xi )$$ b ( x , t , ξ ) = ∇ ξ B ( x , t , ξ ) , $$B_t(x,t,\xi ) =\frac{\partial B}{\partial t}(x,t,\xi )$$ B t ( x , t , ξ ) = ∂ B ∂ t ( x , t , ξ ) , and that $$G_u(x, u, v)$$ G u ( x , u , v ) , $$G_v(x, u, v)$$ G v ( x , u , v ) are the partial derivatives of a $$\mathcal {C}^{1}$$ C 1 –Carathéodory nonlinearity $$G:\Omega \times {\mathbb {R}}\times {\mathbb {R}}\rightarrow {\mathbb {R}}$$ G : Ω × R × R → R . Roughly speaking, we assume that $$A(x,t,\xi )$$ A ( x , t , ξ ) grows at least as $$(1+|t|^{s_1p_1})|\xi |^{p_1}$$ ( 1 + | t | s 1 p 1 ) | ξ | p 1 , $$p_1 > 1$$ p 1 > 1 , $$s_1 \ge 0$$ s 1 ≥ 0 , while $$B(x,t,\xi )$$ B ( x , t , ξ ) grows as $$(1+|t|^{s_2p_2})|\xi |^{p_2}$$ ( 1 + | t | s 2 p 2 ) | ξ | p 2 , $$p_2 > 1$$ p 2 > 1 , $$s_2 \ge 0$$ s 2 ≥ 0 , and that G(x, u, v) can also have a supercritical growth related to $$s_1$$ s 1 and $$s_2$$ s 2 . Since the coefficients depend on the solution and its gradient themselves, the study of the interaction of two different norms in a suitable Banach space is needed. In spite of these difficulties, a variational approach is used to show that the system admits a nontrivial weak bounded solution and, under hypotheses of symmetry, infinitely many ones.

In this paper, we aim at establishing a new existence result for the quasilinear elliptic equation $$\begin{aligned} - \textrm{div} (a(x,u,\nabla u)) + A_t(x,u,\nabla u) + V(x) {\vert u \vert }^{p-2} u= g(x,u) \quad \quad \hbox { in }{{\mathbb {R}}}^{N} \end{aligned}$$ - div ( a ( x , u , ∇ u ) ) + A t ( x , u , ∇ u ) + V ( x ) | u | p - 2 u = g ( x , u ) in R N with $$p>1$$ p > 1 , $$N\ge 2\ $$ N ≥ 2 and $$V:{\mathbb {R}}^N\rightarrow {\mathbb {R}}$$ V : R N → R suitable measurable positive function. Here, we suppose $$A: {\mathbb {R}}^N \times {\mathbb {R}}\times {\mathbb {R}}^N \rightarrow {\mathbb {R}}$$ A : R N × R × R N → R is a given $${C}^{1}$$ C 1 -Carathéodory function which grows as $$|\xi |^p$$ | ξ | p , with $$A_t(x,t,\xi ) = \frac{\partial A}{\partial t}(x,t,\xi )$$ A t ( x , t , ξ ) = ∂ A ∂ t ( x , t , ξ ) , $$a(x,t,\xi ) = \nabla _\xi A(x,t,\xi )$$ a ( x , t , ξ ) = ∇ ξ A ( x , t , ξ ) , $$V:{\mathbb {R}}^N\rightarrow {\mathbb {R}}$$ V : R N → R is a suitable measurable function and $$g:{\mathbb {R}}^N \times {\mathbb {R}}\rightarrow {\mathbb {R}}$$ g : R N × R → R is a given Carathéodory function which grows as $$|\xi |^q$$ | ξ | q with $$1<q<p$$ 1 < q < p . Since the coefficient of the principal part depends on the solution itself, under suitable assumptions on $$A(x,t,\xi ), V(x)$$ A ( x , t , ξ ) , V ( x ) and g(x, t), we study the interaction of two different norms in a suitable Banach space with the aim of obtaining a good variational approach. Thus, a minimization argument on bounded sets can be used to state the existence of a nontrivial weak bounded solution on an arbitrary bounded domain. Then, one nontrivial bounded solution of the given equation can be found by passing to the limit on a sequence of solutions on bounded domains. Finally, under slightly stronger hypotheses, we can able to find a positive solution of the problem.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
