Existence and asymptotic behavior of positive continuous solutions for a nonlinear elliptic system in the half space

Sameh Turki

Abstract. This paper deals with the existence and the asymptotic behavior of positive continuous solutions of the nonlinear elliptic system \(\Delta u=p(x)u^{\alpha}v^r\), \(\Delta v = q(x)u^s v^{\beta}\), in the half space \(\mathbb{R}^n_+ :=\{x=(x_1,..., x_n)\in \mathbb{R}^n : x_n \gt 0\}\), \(n \geq 2\), where \(\alpha, \beta \gt 1\) and \(r, s \geq 0\). The functions \(p\) and \(q\) are required to satisfy some appropriate conditions related to the Kato class \(K^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^n_+)\). Our approach is based on potential theory tools and the use of Schauder's fixed point theorem.

Keywords: asymptotic behavior, elliptic system, regular equation.
