Abstract: We derive explicit ground state solutions for several equations with the $p$-Laplacian in $R^n$, including (here $varphi(z)=z|z{|}^{p-2}$, with $p>1$) [ varphi left(u'(r) ight)' +frac{n-1}{r} varphi left(u'(r) ight)+u^M+u^Q=0 ,. ] The constant $M>0$ is assumed to be below the critical power, while $Q=fracMp-p+1p-1$ is above the critical power. This explicit solution is used to give a multiplicity result, similarly to C.S. Lin and W.-M. Ni [11]. We also give the $p$-Laplace version of G. Bratu's solution [3]. In another direction, we present a change of variables which removes the non-autonomous term $r^{alpha}$ in [ varphi left(u'(r) ight)' +frac{n-1}{r} varphi left(u'(r) ight)+r^{alpha} f(u)=0 ,, ] while preserving the form of this equation. In particular, we study singular equations, when $alpha<0$. The Coulomb case $alpha=-1$ turned out to give the critical power.
