A homotopic deformation along \(p\) of a Leray-Schauder degree result and existence for \((| u'| ^{p-2}u')'+f(t,u)=0\), \(u(0)=u(T)=0\), \(p>1\) (Q920258): Difference between revisions

The authors consider the boundary value problem \((\phi_ p(u'))'+f(t,u)=0,\) \(u(0)=u(T)=0\), where \(f: [0,1]\times {\mathbb R}\to {\mathbb R}\) is continuous and \(\phi_ p(s)=| s|^{p-2}s,\) \(p>1\). The problem stated is investigated by means of the Leray-Schauder homotopy method.
