Abstract: In this paper, we prove that for $ p>1$ the problem $ \Delta u=a(x)u^p$ in a bounded $ C^2$ domain $ \Omega$ of $ \mathbb{R}^N$ has a unique positive solution with $ u=\infty$ on $ \partial\Omega$. The nonnegative weight $ a(x)$ is continuous in $ \overline{\Omega}$, but is only assumed to verify a ``bounded oscillations" condition of local nature near $ \partial\Omega$, in contrast with previous works, where a definite behavior of $ a$ near $ \partial\Omega$ was imposed.
