Existence results for quasilinear elliptic exterior problems involving convection term and nonlinear Robin boundary conditions. (English) Zbl 1194.35150
Summary: The authors establish the existence of solutions for a class of elliptic exterior problems involving convection terms and nonlinear Robin boundary conditions. The proof of the result is made by combining Galerkin method with a priori estimates for this kind of problem.
