This paper deals with the local behavior of solutions of quasi-linear partial differential equations of second order in n/> 2 independent variables.~ re shall be concerned specifically with the a priori majorization of solutions, the nature of removable singularities, and the behavior of a positive solution in the neighborhood of an isolated singularity. Corresponding results are for the most part well known for the case of the Laplace equation; roughly speaking, our work constitutes an extension of these results to a wide class of non-linear equations. Throughout the paper we are concerned with real quasi-linear equations of the general form div., 4 (x, u, uz)=~(x, u, ux).(1)Here~ is a given vector function of the variables x, u, ux,~ is a given scalar function of the same variables, and u~=(Ou/Ox 1..... Ou/Oxn) denotes the gradient of the dependent variable u= u (x), where x=(xl,..., xn). The structure of (1) is determined by the functions., 4 (x, u, p) and B (x, u, p). We assume that they are defined for all points x in some connected open set (domain)~ of the Euclidean number space E n, and for all values of u and p. Furthermore, they are to satisfy inequalities of the form
