Nonlinear boundary value problems involving the \(p\)-Laplacian and \(p\)-Laplacian-like operators (Q2492096)

Summary: We study nonlinear boundary value problems for systems driven by the vector \(p\)-Laplacian or \(p\)-Laplacian-like operators and having a maximal monotone term. We consider periodic problems and problems with nonlinear boundary conditions formulated in terms of maximal monotone operators. This way we achieve a unified treatment of the classical Dirichlet, Neumann and periodic problems. Our hypotheses permit the presence of Hartman and Nagumo-Hartman nonlinearities, partially extending this way some recent works of Mawhin and his coworkers.
