Existence of solutions for a biharmonic equation with gradient term.

In this paper, we mainly study the existence of radial solutions for a class of biharmonic equation with a convection term, involving two real parameters A and p. We mainly use a combination of the fixed point index theory and the Banach contraction theorem to prove that there are A0 > 0 and p0 > 0 such the equation admits at least one radial solution for all (A, p) e [-Ao, x [0, p0].
