Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, Conference 08 (2002), pp. 23-34 Title: Necessary conditions of existence for an elliptic equation with source term and measure data involving $p$-Laplacian Authors: Marie-Francoise Bidaut-Veron (CNRS UMR, Tours, France) Abstract: We study the nonnegative solutions to equation $$ -\Delta_{p}u=u^{q}+\lambda\nu, $$ in a bounded domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^{N}$, where $1p-1$, $\nu$ is a nonnegative Radon measure on $\Omega$, and $\lambda>0$ is a parameter. We give necessary conditions on $\nu$ for existence, with $\lambda$ small enough, in terms of capacity. We also give a priori estimates of the solutions. Published October 21, 2002.
