Summary: This article studies the existence of solutions to the second-order quasilinear elliptic equation $$ -\nabla \cdot(a(u) \nabla u) + v\cdot \nabla u=f $$ with the condition $u(x_0)=u_0$ at a certain point in the domain, which is the 2 or the 3 dimensional torus. We prove that if the functions a, f, v satisfy certain conditions, then there exists a unique classical solution. Applications of our results include stationary heat/diffusion problems with convection and with a source/sink, when the value of the solution is known at a certain location.
