On a generalized 1-harmonic equation and the inverse mean curvature flow (Q629379)

We study an analytic quantity \(w\) in the generalized \(1\)-harmonic equation \[ \text{div}\left(\frac{\nabla f}{ |\nabla f|}\right) =A(x,f,\nabla f), \] on a domain \(\Omega\) in a complete Riemannian manifold \(M\), that affects the behaviour of weak solutions to the equation, and establish its link with the geometry of \(\Omega\), in terms of its doubling constant \(D(\Omega)\), Cheeger constant \(l_{\infty}(\Omega)\), Sobolev constant \(S_{\infty}(\Omega)\) and the first eigenvalue \(\lambda_{1}(\Omega)\) of the Laplacian. In this study, some ideas from the last author's papers [SIGMA, Symmetry Integrability Geom. Methods Appl. 3, Paper 127 (2007; Zbl 1143.53055); Bull. Transylv. Univ. Brasov, Ser. III 1(50), 415--453 (2008)] are used.
