Hello,

I'm trying to find either an analytical or a semi-analytical method for solving the following P-B Eq.

with C and A being two constants. The equation is to be solved within a rectangle with constant boundary conditions.

If anyone has a clue, I'll be grateful.

Have a good evening.

Not sure that you're right because the exponential term contains the function itself rather than the independent variables x or y.
 
In that case, the only other method I know would be to write the right hand side as a power series centered at the origin of the domain and truncate the series to some low order, like first or second, and solve the resulting PDE.
