II INTERACTIVE MEETING OF APPLIED MATHEMATICS II EIM@ 2009 AN ABSTRACT ELLIPTIC KIRCHHOFF-TYPE PROBLEM EUGENIO CABANILLAS LAPA1 AND VICTOR E. CARRERA BARRANTES2 —————————————————— Abstract. In a real Hilbert space H, we study solvability of the abstract elliptic problem M (|A1/2 u|2 )Au = F (u, A1/2 u) (1) where A is a positive densely defined selfadjoint linear operator in H, F is a nonlinear operator mapping H into itself and M : R → R is a C1 –class function. —————————————————— 1 Instituto de Investigación de Matemática.
