On a class of quasilinear eigenvalue problems in RN

We study an eigenvalue problem in R ^N which involves the p ‐Laplacian (p > N ≥ 2) and the nonlinear term has a global (p – 1)‐sublinear growth. The existence of certain open intervals of eigenvalues is guaranteed for which the eigenvalue problem has two nonzero, radially symmetric solutions. Some stability properties of solutions with respect to the eigenvalues are also obtained. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Multiple positive solutions of singular eigenvalue type problems involving the one-dimensional p-Laplacian

We establish a existence result of multiple positive solutions for a singular eigenvalue type problem involving the one-dimensional p-Laplacian. Furthermore, we obtain a nonexistence result of positive solutions by taking advantage of the internal geometric properties related to the problem. Our approach is based on the fixed point index theory and the fixed point theorem in cones.
