We consider the following quasilinear elliptic equation: \[ \begin{cases} -\text{div}(\alpha|\nabla v|^{p-2}\nabla v)= f_0+ g_0|\nabla v|^p,\text{ in }B,\\ v\in W^{1,p}_0(B)\cap L^\infty(B),\\ v\text{ is a positive, spherically symmetric, and decreasing function},\end{cases}\tag{1} \] where \(B= B(0)\) is an open ball in \(\mathbb{R}^N\) \((N\geq 1)\) centered at the origin \(0\), \(1<p<\infty\), and \(\alpha\), \(f_0\) and \(g_0\) are arbitrary given positive constants. It is very well known that equation (1) plays an important role in the investigation of quasilinear elliptic equations of Leray-Lions type. We will prove that if \(f_0\) is ``large enough'' then equation (1) doesn't allow any solution in \(C^2(B\setminus\{0\})\cap C(\overline B)\). Moreover, in this case we are able to construct an unbounded sequence of subsolutions of (1). Let us note that if \(f_0\leq 0\) and \(g_0\in\mathbb{R}\) then (1) has no solutions.
