This paper deals with positive solutions of a class of nonlinear eigenvalue problems. For a quasilinear elliptic problem (#) - div (ϕ(|∇u|)∇u) = λf(x,u) in Ω, u = 0 on ∂Ω, we assume asymptotic conditions on ϕ and f such as ϕ(t) ~ tp0-2, f(x,t) ~ tq0-1as t → +0 and ϕ(t) ~ tp1-2, f(x,t) ~ tq1-1as t → ∞. The combined effects of sub-nonlinearity (p0> q0) and super-nonlinearity (p1< q1) with the subcritical term f(x,u) imply the existence of at least two positive solutions of (#) for 0 < λ < Λ.

AbstractLet Ω be a bounded domain in ℝIn this article we show the existence of at least two positive solutions for the following quasilinear elliptic problem with an exponential type nonlinearity:We use Monotonicity and Variational methods to obtain this multiplicity result.

Positive solutions of a kind of equations related to the Laplacian andp-Laplacian on a bounded domain inRNwithN⩾1are studied by using variational method. A sufficient condition of the existence of positive solutions is characterized by the eigenvalues of linear and another nonlinear eigenvalue problems.

We consider a compact, connected, orientable, boundaryless Riemannian manifold (M, g) of class C∞ where g denotes the metric tensor. Let n = dim M ≥ 3. Using Morse techniques, we prove the existence of [Formula: see text] nonconstant solutions u ∈ H1,p(M) to the quasilinear problem [Formula: see text] for ε > 0 small enough, where 2 ≤ p < n, p < q < p*, p* = np/(n - p) and [Formula: see text] is the p-laplacian associated to g of u (note that Δ2,g = Δg) and [Formula: see text] denotes the Poincaré polynomial of M. We also establish results of genericity of nondegenerate solutions for the quasilinear elliptic problem (Pε).
