Quasi-regular Dirichlet forms and the obstacle problem for elliptic equations with measure data

Abstract

We consider the obstacle problem with irregular barriers for semilinear elliptic equation involving measure data and operator corresponding to a general quasi-regular Dirichlet form. We prove existence and uniqueness of a solution as well as its representation as an envelope of a supersolution to some related partial differential equation. We also prove regularity results for the solution and the Lewy-Stampacchia inequality.
