Abstract
Variational principles which exhibit only linear growth arise in several contexts. As a paradigm for the questions which these principles suggest, we take up here the study of the problem
Here ϕ : R n → R is a non-negative convex sufficiently differentiable function satisfying
for some λ > 0, subject to
The competing v belong to a suitable class A of functions from Ω to R where Ω is a bounded domain with sufficiently smooth boundary and f is given.
