Abstract

The limiting behavior of solutions of quasilinear elliptic equations on thin domains is investigated. As we will see the boundary conditions play an important role. If one considers homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions, the sequence of solutions will converge to the null function, whereas, if one considers Neumann boundary conditions, there is a nontrivial equation which determines the limiting behavior.

    \(J_{\psi }: W_{0}^{1,p}(\varOmega ^{\epsilon }) \rightarrow 2^{W^{-1,p'}(\varOmega ^{\epsilon }) }\) is defined by \(J_{\psi }u:=\{ u^{{\ast}}\in W^{-1,p'}(\varOmega ^{\epsilon }):\| u^{{\ast}}\|_{W^{-1,p'}(\varOmega ^{\epsilon })} =\psi (\|u\|_{W_{0}^{1,p}(\varOmega ^{\epsilon })})\|u\|_{W_{0}^{1,p}(\varOmega ^{\epsilon })},\ \langle u^{{\ast}},u\rangle _{W_{0}^{-1,p'},W_{0}^{1,p}} =\psi (\|u\|_{W_{0}^{1,p}(\varOmega ^{\epsilon })})\}\)
