Abstract

Based on the recent Berkovits degree, and by way of an abstract Hammerstein equation, we study the Dirichlet boundary value problem involving nonlinear operators of the form

$$ - div a(x,\nabla u)=\lambda u+f(x, u,\nabla u),$$

where a and f are Carathéodory functions satisfying some nonstandard growth conditions and \(\lambda \in I\!R\) . The function a satisfy also a condition of strict monotony and a condition of coercivity. We prove the existence of weak solutions of this problem in the weighted Sobolev spaces \(W_0^{1,p(x)}(\varOmega ,\rho )\) where \(\rho \) is a weight function, satisfying some integrability conditions.
