The author studies the nonlinear differential equation for differential forms \[ du| du| ^{p-2}=d^* v \] on flat Euclidean \(n\)-space, where \(1<p<\infty\) is fixed. He writes this out in coordinates. The main part of the paper consists of 10 explicit examples \((u,v)\) for which the author verifies that they fulfill the equation (most of the time \(n=3\)). He starts with a (known) \(p\)-harmonic function \(u\), i.e. \(u\) fulfills \(d^*(du| du| ^{p-2})=0\) and finds appropriate \(v\) (the existence of \(v\) is guaranteed by the Poincaré lemma). His \(u\) and \(v\) have (mild) singularities, an example is \(u(x_1,x_2,x_3)= (x_1^2+x_2^2+x_3^2)^{-1/2}\). The type of these singularities or the function class of his solutions is not discussed.
