Abstract

Let Q N be an N-anisotropic Laplacian operator, which contains the ordinary Laplacian operator, N-Laplacian operator and the anisotropic Laplacian operator. We firstly obtain the properties of Q N , which contain the weak maximal principle, the comparison principle and the mean value property. Then a priori estimates and blow-up analysis for solutions of Q N u in bounded domain in ℝN, N ≥ 2 are established. Finally, the blow-up behavior of the only singular point is also considered.
