The semilinear elliptic boundary value problem

1.1

will be considered in an exterior domain Ω ⊂ Rn, n ≥ 2, with boundary ∂Ω ∊ C2 + α, 0 < α < 1, where

1.2

Di = ∂/∂xi, i = 1, …, n. The coefficients aij, bi in (1.2) are assumed to be real-valued functions defined in Ω ∪ ∂Ω such that each , , and (aij(x)) is uniformly positive definite in every bounded domain in Ω. The Hölder exponent α is understood to be fixed throughout, 0 < α < 1 . The regularity hypotheses on f and g are stated as H 1 near the beginning of Section 2.
