โฆ Synopsis
We consider the asymptotic behavior of certain solutions to a quasilinear problem with large exponent in the nonlinearity. Starting with the investigation of a Sobolev embedding, we get a sharp estimate for the embedding constant. Then we obtain a crucial (L^{\prime})-estimate for the (N)-Laplacian operators in (R^{*}). Using these estimates we prove that the solutions obtained by the standard variational method will develop a spiky pattern of peaks as the nonlincar exponent gets large, and we also have an upper bound depending on (N) only of the number of peaks. Stronger results for some special convex domains and some special solutions are also achieved. ' 1995 Academic Press. Inc.

In this work, we consider semilinear elliptic equations with boundary blow-up whose nonlinearities involve a negative exponent. Combining sub-and super-solution arguments, comparison principles and topological degree theory, we establish the existence of large solutions. Furthermore, we show the exi
