Abstract

We prove the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution to a Dirichlet boundary value problem for a class of nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations in the setting of weighted Sobolev spaces. Our proof is based on the weighted Sobolev spaces theory and the Browder–Minty theorem. First, we transform the problem into an equivalent operator equation; second, we utilized the Browder–Minty theorem to prove the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution to the considered problem.
