Obstacle Problems for Monotone Operators with Measure Data

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: International Series of Numerical Mathematics ((ISNM,volume 154))

Abstract

The aim of this work is to study obstacle problems associated to monotone operators when the forcing term is a bounded Radon measure. Existence, uniqueness, stability results, and properties of the solutions are investigated.
