Eigenvalue problems for a quasilinear elliptic equation on ℝN
We prove the existence of a simple, isolated, positive principal eigenvalue for the quasilinear elliptic equation −Δpu=λg(x)|u|p−2u, x∈ℝN, lim|x|→+∞u(x)=0, where Δpu=div(|∇u|p−2∇u) is the p-Laplacian operator and the weight function g(x), being bounded, changes sign and is negative and away from zer...

description | We prove the existence of a simple, isolated, positive principal eigenvalue for the quasilinear elliptic equation −Δpu=λg(x)|u|p−2u, x∈ℝN, lim|x|→+∞u(x)=0, where Δpu=div(|∇u|p−2∇u) is the p-Laplacian operator and the weight function g(x), being bounded, changes sign and is negative and away from zero at infinity. |
