A remark on the existence of large solutions via sub and supersolutions.
(English)
[J] Electron. J. Differ. Equ. 2003, Paper No. 110, 4 p., electronic only (2003). ISSN 1072-6691/e

The author considers the boundary blow-up elliptic problem $$\cases \Delta u= a(x)f(u)\quad &\text{in }\Omega,\\ u=+\infty\quad &\text{on }\partial\Omega,\endcases\tag1$$ where $\Omega\subset\bbfR^N$, $N\ge 2$ is a smooth bounded domain, $a(x)$ is a Hölder continuous positive function defined in $\Omega$ and $f$ is locally Hölder in $(0,+\infty)$. The author is mainly interested in the existence of positive classical solutions to (1), that is solutions $u\in C^2(\Omega)$ to $\Delta u= a(x)f(u)$ such that $u(x)\to +\infty$ as $d(x):= \text{dist}(x,\partial\Omega)\to 0$. Using sub- and supersolution techniques the author proves the existence of at least one positive solution under some suitable assumptions on $a$ and $f$.
