Abstract: | We improve some previous existence and nonexistence results for positive principal eigenvalues of the problem —Δpu = λg(x)ψp(u), x ∈ ?N, lim‖x‖?+∞u(x) = 0. Also we discuss existence, nonexistence and antimaximum principle questions concerning the perturbed problem —Δpu = λg(x)ψp(u) + f(x), x∈ ?N. |
