2005-Oujda International Conference on Nonlinear Analysis, Oujda, Morocco. Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, Conference 14 (2006), pp. 53-71. Title: Higher order nonlinear degenerate elliptic problems with weak monotonicity Authors: Youssef Akdim (Faculte des Sciences Dhar-Mahraz, Maroc) Elhoussine Azroul (Faculte des Sciences Dhar-Mahraz, Maroc) Mohamed Rhoudaf (Faculte des Sciences Dhar-Mahraz, Maroc) Abstract: We prove the existence of solutions for nonlinear degenerate elliptic boundary-value problems of higher order. Solutions are obtained using pseudo-monotonicity theory in a suitable weighted Sobolev space. Published September 20, 2006. Math Subject Classifications: 35J40, 35J70. Key Words: Weighted Sobolev spaces; pseudo-monotonicity; nonlinear degenerate elliptic operators; boundary value problems.
