Abstract
We consider the strongly nonlinear boundary value problem,
where A is an elliptic operator of finite or infinite order. We introduce anisotropic weighted Sobolev spaces and we show under a certain sign condition of the Carathéodory function g without assuming any growth restrictions, the existence of the weak solutions.
