Comparison theorems for Riccati inequalities arising in the theory of PDE's with p-Laplacian

Ondrej Dosly, Simona Fisnarova, Robert Marik

Abstract:
In this article, we study a Riccati inequality that appears in the theory of partial differential equations with p-Laplacian. Our results allow to compare existence and nonexistence of positive solutions for Riccati type inequalities which are associated with equations with different powers p.
