Abstract: We derive a priori bounds for positive supersolutions of Deltapu=ho(x)f(u), where p>1 and Deltap is the p-Laplace operator, in a smooth bounded domain of RN with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. We apply the results to nonlinear elliptic eigenvalue problem Deltapu=lambdaf(u), with Dirichlet boundary condition, where f is a nondecreasing continuous differentiable function on [0,infty] such that f(0)>0, f(t)frac1p1 is superlinear at infinity, and give sharp upper and lower bounds for the extremal parameter lambdap*. In particular, we consider the nonlinearities f(u)=eu and f(u)=(1+u)m (m>p1) and give explicit estimates on lambdap*. As a by-product of our results, we obtain a lower bound for the principal eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian that improves obtained results in the recent literature for some range of p and N.
