Remarks on nonlinear equations with measures
  We study the Dirichlet boundary value problem for equations with absorption of the form $-\Delta u+g\circ u=\mu$ in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset R^N$ where $g$ is a continuous odd monotone increasing function. Under some additional assumptions on $g$, we present necessary and sufficient conditions for existence when $\mu$ is a finite measure. We also discuss the notion of solution when the measure $\mu$ is positive and blows up on a compact subset of $\Gw$.
