We consider weak solutions towith p > 1, q ≥ max{p − 1, 1}. We exploit the Moser iteration technique to prove a Harnack comparison inequality for C1 weak solutions. As a consequence we deduce a strong comparison principle.

The aim of the paper is to study the asymptotic behaviour of the solution of a quasilinear elliptic equation of the form with a high-contrast discontinuous coefficient aε(x), where ε is the parameter characterizing the scale of the microstucture. The coefficient aε(x) is assumed to degenerate everywhere in the domain Ω except in a thin connected microstructure of asymptotically small measure. It is shown that the asymptotical behaviour of the solution uε as ε → 0 is described by a homogenized quasilinear equation with the coefficients calculated by local energetic characteristics of the domain Ω.

AbstractWe establish that the elliptic equation defined in an exterior domain of ℝn, n≥3, has a positive solution which decays to 0 as $\vert x\vert \rightarrow +\infty $ under quite general assumptions upon f and g.

AbstractThis paper is concerned with the following type of quasilinear elliptic equations in{\mathbb{R}^{N}}involving thep-Laplacian and critical growth:-\Delta_{p}u+V(|x|)|u|^{p-2}u-\Delta_{p}(|u|^{2})u=\lambda|u|^{q-2}u+|u|^{2p^{% *}-2}u,which arises as a model in mathematical physics, where{2<p<N},{p^{*}=\frac{Np}{N-p}}. For any given integer{k\geq 0}, by using change of variables and minimization arguments, we obtain, under some additional assumptions onpandq, a radial sign-changing nodal solution with{k+1}nodal domains. Since the critical exponent appears and the lower order term (obtained by a transformation) may change sign, we shall use delicate arguments.

We study the uniqueness of weak solutions for quasilinear elliptic equations in divergence form. Some counterexamples are given to show that our uniqueness result cannot be improved in the general case.
