TY - JOUR T1 - A monotonicity approach to nonlinear Dirichlet problems in perforated domains JF - Adv. Math. Sci. Appl. 11 (2001) 721-751 Y1 - 2001 A1 - Gianni Dal Maso A1 - Igor V. Skrypnik AB - We study the asymptotic behaviour of solutions to Dirichlet problems in perforated domains for nonlinear elliptic equations associated with monotone operators. The main difference with respect to the previous papers on this subject is that no uniformity is assumed in the monotonicity condition. Under a very general hypothesis on the holes of the domains, we construct a limit equation, which is satisfied by the weak limits of the solutions. The additional term in the limit problem depends only on the local behaviour of the holes, which can be expressed in terms of suitable nonlinear capacities associated with the monotone operator.
