VISCOSITY SOLUTIONS TO THE INFINITY LAPLACIAN EQUATION WITH LOWER TERMS

We establish the existence and uniqueness of viscosity solutions to the Dirichlet problem & UDelta;hoou = f (x, u), in & omega;, u = q, on partial differential & omega;,where q & ISIN; C( partial differential & omega;), h > 1, & UDelta;hoou = |Du|h-3 & UDelta;oou. The operator & UDelta;oou = (D2uDu, Du) is the infinity Laplacian which is strongly degenerate, quasilinear and it is associated with the absolutely minimizing Lipschitz extension. When the nonhomogeneous term f (x, t) is non-decreasing in t, we prove the existence of the viscosity solution via Perron's method. We also establish a uniqueness result based on the perturbation analysis of the viscosity solutions. If the function f (x, t) is nonpositive (nonnegative) and non-increasing in t, we also give the existence of viscosity solutions by an iteration technique under the condition that the domain has small diameter. Furthermore, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of viscosity solutions to the boundary-value problem with singularity & UDelta;hoou =-b(x)g(u), in & omega;, u > 0, in & omega;, u = 0, on partial differential & omega;,when the domain satisfies some regular condition. We analyze asymptotic estimates for the viscosity solution near the boundary.
