Some existence results of solutions for \(p\)-Laplacian (Q1418262)

This paper is devoted to the existence of solutions for the following Dirichlet problem for \(p\)-Laplacian \(p>1\), \[ \begin{cases} -\text{div}(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u)= f(x,u),\quad x\in\Omega,\\ u\in W^{1,p}_0(\Omega),\end{cases}\tag{1} \] where \(\Omega\) is a bounded domain with smooth boundary in \(\mathbb{R}^N\) and \(f: \Omega\times \mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\) is a given function. Under suitable assumptions on \(f\) and by using critical point theory, the authors prove the existence of solutions for (1).
