The authors use a reduction method in proving existence of solutions to certain elliptic equations involving the \(p\)-Laplace operator such as \[ \Delta_p u+ku^{p-1}-Ku^q=0,\qquad q>p-1, \] where \(K\geq0\) and \(k\leq K\) are smooth functions on the complete non-compact Riemannian manifold \((M,g)\) and \(\Delta_pu=\text{div\,}(| \nabla u| ^{p-2}\nabla u).\) Precisely, the existence is implied by existence of a positive essentially weak subsolution on a manifold and the existence of a positive supersolution on each compact domain of this manifold. The existence/nonexistence of positive supersolutions is expressed in terms of the sign of the first eigenvalue of the nonlinear operator under consideration.
