Some regularity results for a singular elliptic problem. (English) Zbl 1336.35146

Summary: In the present paper we investigate the following singular elliptic problem with \(p\)-Laplacian operator: \[ \begin{cases} -\Delta_p u = \frac{K(x)}{u^{\alpha}}\text{ in }\Omega, \\ u = 0\text{ on }\partial\Omega, \,u>0\text{ on }\Omega, \end{cases} \tag{P} \] where \(\Omega\) is a regular bounded domain of \(\mathbb R^{N}\), \(\alpha\in\mathbb R\), \(K\in L^\infty_{\mathrm{loc}}(\Omega)\) a non-negative function. We discuss the existence, the regularity and the uniqueness of a weak solution \(u\) to the problem (P).
