Elliptic problems with singular nonlinearities of indefinite sign

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $C^{1,1}$ boundary. We consider problems of the form $-\Delta u=\chi_{\left\{ u>0\right\}}\left( au^{-\alpha}-g\left( .,u\right) \right) $ in $\Omega,$ $u=0$ on $\partial\Omega,$ $u\geq0$ in $\Omega,$ where $\Omega$ is a bounded dom...

description Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $C^{1,1}$ boundary. We consider problems of the form $-\Delta u=\chi_{\left\{ u>0\right\}}\left( au^{-\alpha}-g\left( .,u\right) \right) $ in $\Omega,$ $u=0$ on $\partial\Omega,$ $u\geq0$ in $\Omega,$ where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $0\not \equiv a\in L^{\infty}\left( \Omega\right) ,$ $\alpha\in\left( 0,1\right) ,$ and $g:\Omega\times\left[ 0,\infty\right) \rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ is a nonnegative Carathéodory function. We prove, under suitable assumptions on $a$ and $g,$ the existence of nontrivial and nonnegative weak solutions $u\in H_{0}^{1}\left( \Omega\right) \cap L^{\infty}\left( \Omega\right) $ of the stated problem. Under additional assumptions, the positivity, $a.e.$ in $\Omega,$ of the found solution $u$, is also proved.
