Minimax principles for critical-point theory in applications to quasilinear boundary-value problems

A. R. El Amrouss & M. Moussaoui

Abstract:
Using the variational method developed by the same author in [7], we establish the existence of solutions to the equation $-\Delta_p u = f(x,u)$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Here $\Delta_p$ denotes the p-Laplacian and $\int_0^s f(x,t)\,dt$ is assumed to lie between the first two eigenvalues of the p-Laplacian.
