Abstract: | Given a connected open set
and a function w ∈LN/p(Ω) if 1 < p < N and w ∈Lr (Ω) for some r ∈(1, ∞) if p ≧ N, with
we prove that the positive principal eigenvalue of the problem
is unique and simple. This improves previous works all of which assumed w in a smaller space than LN/p (Ω) to ensure that Harnack’s inequality holds. Our proof does not rely on Harnack’s inequality, which may fail in our case.
