quasi-linear elliptic equations and inequalities; weak solution; local boundedness; pointwise differentiability; difference quotient
Summary:
The local boundedness of weak solutions to variational inequalities (obstacle problem) with the linear growth condition is obtained. Consequently, an analogue of a theorem by Reshetnyak about a.e\. differentiability of weak solutions to elliptic divergence type differential equations is proved for variational inequalities.
