Existence and Nonexistence of Solutions for Sublinear Equations on Exterior Domains (open access)

Existence and Nonexistence of Solutions for Sublinear Equations on Exterior Domains

This article studies radial solutions of Δu + K(r)ƒ(u) = 0 on the exterior of the ball of radius R > 0, BR, centered at the origin in ℝN with u = 0 on @BR where ƒ is odd with ƒ < 0 on (0; β), ƒ > 0 on (β;∞), f(u) ~ uᵖ with 0 < p < 1 for large u and K(r) ~ r⁻ᵅ for large r.
