Effective numerical computation of $p(x)-$Laplace equations in 2D

Abstract: In this article we implement a method for the computation of a nonlinear elliptic problem with nonstandard growth driven by the $p(x)-$Laplacian operator. Our implementation is based in the {\em decomposition--coordination} method that allows us, via an iterative process, to solve in each step a linear differential equation and a nonlinear algebraic equation. Our code is implemented in {\sc MatLab} in 2 dimensions and turns out to be extremely efficient from the computational point of view.
