Abstract

We study isolated singularities of solutions of a class of quasilinear equations a model of which is \(\sum\nolimits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{{\left| {{u_{{x_i}}}} \right|}^{{p_i} - 2}}{u_{{x_i}}}} \right)}_{{x_i}}}} + {\sum\nolimits_{i = 1}^n {\left| {{u_{{x_i}}}} \right|} ^{{q_i}}} = 0\) . We give a sufficient condition on the exponents {p i } and {q i } for the removability of such singularities.
