Abstract

We study and solve the Dirichlet problem for graphs of prescribed mean curvature in Rn+1\mathbb R^{n+1} over general domains Ω\Omega without requiring a mean convexity assumption. By using pieces of nodoids as barriers we first give sufficient conditions for the solvability in case of zero boundary values. Applying a result by Schulz and Williams we can then also solve the Dirichlet problem for boundary values satisfying a Lipschitz condition.
