چکیده

where λ ∈ R. Next, we state the general hypotheses which will be assumed throughout the paper. (E) Assume that N , p satisfy the following relation N > p > 1. (G) g is a smooth function, at least C1,α(RN ) for some α∈ (0,1), such that g ∈ L∞(RN ) and g(x) > 0, on Ω+, with measure of Ω+, |Ω+| > 0. Also there exist R0 sufficiently large and k > 0 such that g(x) <−k, for all |x| > R0. Generally, problems where the operator −∆p is present arise both from pure mathematics (e.g., the theory of quasiregular and quasiconformal mappings), as well as from a variety of applications (e.g., non-Newtonian fluids, reaction-diffusion problems, flow through porous media, nonlinear elasticity, glaciology, astronomy, etc.). On various types of bounded domains, there is an extensive literature on eigenvalue problems and the picture for “the principal eigenpair” seems to be fairly complete. Papers on unbounded domains have appeared quite recently. These problems are of a more complex nature, as the equation may give rise to a noncompact operator. Such a problem is the one presented in [7]. The main aim of this paper is to study the quasilinear elliptic problem (1.1)-(1.2), by generalizing ideas introduced in [9], for the case p = 2. In Section 2, we study the space

Existence of at least three weak solutions for a quasilinear elliptic system

In this paper, applying two theorems of Ricceri and Bonanno, we will establish the existence of three weak solutions for a quasilinear elliptic system. Indeed, we will assign a differentiable nonlinear operator to a differential equation system such that the critical points of this operator are weak solutions of the system. In this paper, applying two theorems of R...

ON QUASILINEAR ELLIPTIC SYSTEMS INVOLVING MULTIPLE CRITICAL EXPONENTS

In this paper, we consider the existence of a non-trivial weaksolution to a quasilinear elliptic system involving critical Hardyexponents. The main issue of the paper is to understand thebehavior of these Palais-Smale sequences. Indeed, the principaldifficulty here is that there is an asymptotic competition betweenthe energy functional carried by the critical nonlinearities. Thenby the variatio...
