The Dirichlet problem with sublinear nonlinearities
We investigate the existence of solutions of the Dirichlet problem for the differential inclusion for a.e. y ∈ Ω, which is a generalized Euler-Lagrange equation for the functional . We develop a duality theory and formulate the variational principle for this problem. As a consequence of duality, we derive the variational principle for minimizing sequences of J. We consider the case when G is subquadratic at infinity.
