A priori estimates in L${}^{\infty }$ for non-diagonal perturbed quasilinear systems
Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze, Serie 5, Volume 8 (2009) no. 3, p. 417-428

We present a way to derive a priori estimates in ${L}^{\infty }$ for a class of quasilinear systems containing examples with a leading part which is neither diagonal nor of Uhlenbeck type. Moreover, a perturbation term with natural growth in first order derivatives is allowed.
