We examine the equation given by \begin{equation} \label{eq_abstract} -\Delta u + a(x) \cdot \nabla u = u^p \qquad \mbox{in $ \IR^N$,} \end{equation} where $p>1$ and $ a(x)$ is a smooth vector field satisfying some decay conditions. We show…
In this paper we aim to show continuous differentiability of weak solutions to a one-Laplace system perturbed by $p$-Laplacian with $1<p<\infty$. The main difficulty on this equation is that uniform ellipticity breaks near a facet, the…
