Abstract
Sufficient conditions for the existence of a generalized solution to a nonlinear elliptic differential equation with nonlocal boundary conditions of Bitsadze–Samarskii type are proved. The strong ellipticity condition is used for an auxiliary differential-difference operator. Under the formulated conditions, the differential-difference operator is demicontinuous, coercive, and has a semibounded variation, so the general theory of pseudomonotone operators can be applied.
Notes
In the definitions, we consider abstract Banach spaces \(X\) and \(Y\).
For now we assume that \(\rho < p - 1\). The situation \(\rho = p - 1\) will be explained at the end of the proof.
