Weak solutions of a discrete Robin problem involving the anisotropic $\vect{p}$-mean curvature operator
B. Moussa, I. Nyanquini, S. Ouaro
This work investigates the existence and uniqueness of a so- lution to a discrete Robin boundary value problem involving the anisotropic p⃗-mean curvature operator. The existence re- sult is established through variational methods, specifically by applying the Mountain Pass Theorem of Ambrosetti and Rabinowitz in combination with Ekeland’s Var(...)
