Quasilinear elliptic systems with measure data

We study the existence of solutions of quasilinear elliptic systems involving $N$ equations and a measure on the right hand side, with the form $$\left\{\begin{array}{ll} -\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{\partial}{\partial x_i}\left(\sum\limits_{\beta=1}^{N}\sum\limits_{j=1}^{n}% a_{i,j}^{\alpha,\beta}\left( x,u\right)\frac{\partial}{\partial x_j}u^\beta\right)=\mu^\alpha& \mbox{ in }\Omega ,\\ u=0 & \mbox{ on }\partial\Omega, \end{array}\right.$$ where $\alpha\in\{1,\dots,N\}$ is the equation index, $\Omega$ is an open bounded subset of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, $u:\Omega\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^{N}$ and $\mu$ is a finite Randon measure on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with values into $\mathbb{R}^{N}$. Existence of a solution is proved for two different sets of assumptions on $A$. Examples are provided that satisfy our conditions, but do not satisfy conditions required on previous works on this matter.

Optimal control of affine connection control systems from the point of view of Lie algebroids

The purpose of this paper is to use the framework of Lie algebroids to study optimal control problems for affine connection control systems (ACCSs) on Lie groups. In this context, the equations for critical trajectories of the problem are geometrically characterized as a Hamiltonian vector field.
