Singular Dirichlet (p, q)-Equations
AbstractWe consider a nonlinear Dirichlet problem driven by the (p, q)-Laplacian and with a reaction having the combined effects of a singular term and of a parametric $$(p-1)$$ ( p - 1 ) -superlinear perturbation. We prove a bifurcation-type result describing the changes in the set of positive solutions as the parameter $$\lambda >0$$ λ > 0 varies. Moreover, we prove the existence of a minimal positive solution $$u^*_\lambda $$ u λ ∗ and study the monotonicity and continuity properties of the map $$\lambda \rightarrow u^*_\lambda $$ λ → u λ ∗ .
