On very weak entire solutions on nonlinear partial differential equations. (English. French, Italian summaries) Zbl 0954.35060

Summary: We consider the variational equation in \(\mathbb{R}^n\), \[ \text{div}\Biggl(a(x) F'(|\nabla u|){\nabla u\over|\nabla u|}\Biggr)= 0, \] where \(0< \lambda_0\leq a(x)\leq \Lambda_0< \infty\) and \(F\) is a convex increasing function such that \(pF(t)\leq tF'(t)\leq qF(t)\) where \(1< p\leq q<\infty\). We prove that the very weak solutions of such equations, belonging to a suitable Orlicz-Sobolev space, must be zero almost everywhere.
