Abstract

In the present paper we consider a second order weakly nonlinear elliptic equation of divergent form with a lower term growing at infinity (with respect to the unknown function) as a power function. It is proved that a sequence of solutions in the perforated cubes converges to a solution in the nonperforated cube as the diameters of the holes tends to zero, and the rate of convergence depends on the power exponent of the lower term.
