Resonance elliptic variational inequalities with discontinuous nonlinearities of linear growth

  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We consider resonance elliptic variational inequalities with second-order differential operators and discontinuous nonlinearities of linear growth. The theorem on existence of a strong solution is proved. The initial-value problem is reduced to the problem of existence of a fixed point for a compact multivalued mapping and then the existence of this point is established by the Leray–Schauder method.
