A generalization of Mahadevan's version of the Krein-Rutman theorem and applications to \(p\)-Laplacian boundary value problems





Summary: We present a generalization of Mahadevan's version of the Krein-Rutman theorem [\textit{R. Mahadevan}, Nonlinear Anal., Theory Methods Appl. 67, No.~11, A, 3084--3090 (2007; Zbl 1129.47049)] for a compact, positively 1-homogeneous operator on a Banach space having the properties of being increasing with respect to a cone \(P\) and such that there is a nonzero \(u \in P \setminus \{\theta\} - P\) for which \(MT^p u \geq u\) for some positive constant \(M\) and some positive integer \(p\). Moreover, we give some new results on the uniqueness of positive eigenvalue with positive eigenfunction and computation of the fixed point index. As applications, the existence of positive solutions for \(p\)-Laplacian boundary-value problems is considered under some conditions concerning the positive eigenvalues corresponding to the relevant positively 1-homogeneous operators.
