First sentence: To start with we describe two applications of the theory to be developed in this monograph: Bernoulli's free-boundary problem and the plasma problem.
Description: "The subject of this research monograph is semilinear Dirichlet problems and similar equations involving the p-Laptacian. Solutions are constructed by a constraint variational method. The major new contribution is a detailed analysis of low-energy solutions. In PDE terms the low-energy limit corresponds to the well-known vanishing viscosity limit."--BOOK JACKET.
