Résumé

For a certain class of second-order anisotropic elliptic equations with variable nonlinearity indices and $L_1$ right-hand side we consider the Dirichlet problem in arbitrary unbounded domains. We prove the existence and uniqueness of entropy solutions in anisotropic Sobolev spaces with variable indices.
