Abstract.
This paper concerns boundary value problems for quasilinear second order elliptic systems which are, for example, of the type
Here Ω is a Lipschitz domain in \(\mathbb{R}^{N},\) ν j are the components of the unit outward normal vector field on ∂Ω, the sets Γβ are open in ∂Ω and their relative boundaries are Lipschitz hypersurfaces in ∂Ω. The coefficient functions are supposed to be bounded and measurable with respect to the space variable and smooth with respect to the unknown vector function u and to the control parameter λ. It is shown that, under natural conditions, such boundary value problems generate smooth Fredholm maps between appropriate Sobolev-Campanato spaces, that the weak solutions are Hölder continuous up to the boundary and that the Implicit Function Theorem and the Newton Iteration Procedure are applicable.
