AbstractIn this paper, dedicated to Laurent Veron, we prove that the Strong Maximum Principle holds for solutions of some quasilinear elliptic equations having lower order terms with quadratic growth with respect to the gradient of the solution.
SynopsisIn [6] and [9] two different methods are given for comparing solutions of Dirichlet problems for second order quasilinear elliptic equations on convex regions. In this paper a general comparison technique is outlined—one which contains the methods of [6] and [9] as special cases. This technique is then applied to a number of special examples, comparisons with known results are given and a number of possible extensions are indicated.
