On a Model Semilinear Elliptic Equation in the Plane

详细

Assume that Ω is a regular domain in the complex plane ℂ, and A(z) is a symmetric 2×2 matrix with measurable entries, det A = 1, and such that 1/K|ξ|² ≤ 〈A(z)ξ, ξ〉 ≤ K|ξ|², ξ ∈ ℝ², 1 ≤ K < ∞. We study the blow-up problem for a model semilinear equation div (A(z)∇u) = e^u in Ω and show that the well-known Liouville–Bieberbach function solves the problem under an appropriate choice of the matrix A(z). The proof is based on the fact that every regular solution u can be expressed as u(z) = T(ω(z)), where ω : Ω → G stands for a quasiconformal homeomorphism generated by the matrix A(z), and T is a solution of the semilinear weihted Bieberbach equation △T = m(w)e in G. Here, the weight m(w) is the Jacobian determinant of the inverse mapping ω⁻¹(w).
