Existence and multiplicity for elliptic p-Laplacian problems with critical growth in the gradient (Q1650900): Difference between revisions

The authors study \(p\)-Laplacian equations \[ \displaystyle -\Delta_p u =\lambda c(x)|u|^{p-2}u +\mu(x) |\nabla u|^p +h(x), \text{ in } u \in W_0^{1,p}(\Omega) \cap L^\infty(\Omega) \] where \(1<p <\infty\), \(N\geq 2\), \(\Omega\) is a bounded smooth domain in \(\mathbb{R}^N\). Sufficient conditions for the existence of a solution are given on the parameter \(\lambda\) and on the coefficients \(c(x)\), \(\mu(x)\) and \(h(x)\). In the case \(\mu\) is constant, results on uniqueness and multiplicity of solutions are obtained.
