Abstract:
The paper is concerned with the study of sets which are approximatively compact with respect to a family of
functionals obtained by subtracting affine functionals from some fixed base functional. Nonconvexity of the base functional is shown to imply the minimum in a variational problem with some modified functional is not unique. The results obtained are applied to a specific equation involving the q-Laplacian.
