Hey MathGroup, I apologise beforehand since this might turn to be more a mathematical query than a Mathematica one. However, I appreciate any suggestion on the matter. In[1]:= $Version Out[1]= "7.0 for Mac OS X x86 (64-bit) (February 19, 2009)" This is my setup: f = (g*x + y)^h + d* i[x, y]; u1 = a*f - x^2; u2 = (1 - a)*f - y^2; Where x, y are the variables and {a,h,g,d} are just parameters, with 0 < a < 1, g > 0, d bigger or equal to 0 i[x,y] is the function that I need to specify. Further, it must be true that i[ x, 0] = 0 & i[ 0, y ] = 0 For simplicity I've set h=1; Though if the solution you suggest requires it, h could belong to (0,1] What I need is the analytic solution for {x, y}, hopefully a unique real solution (I don't mind if there are complex ones) to: sol = Solve[{D[u1, x] == 0, D[u2, y] == 0}, {x, y}]; Obviously, I need to specify i[x,y] to do that. I need the function i[x,y] to grow slower that x^2 or y^2. i[ x, y] = x^(1/2)*y^(1/2) or i[x,y] = Log[1+x] * Log[1+y ] do the trick but Mathematica can't find an analytic solution. The only thing that works is i[x,y] = x*y but the problem is that it grows as fast as x^2. Thanks for your time, ME
