Sturmian comparison results for quasilinear elliptic equations in R^n

Tadie

Abstract:
We obtain Sturmian comparison results for the nonnegative solutions to Dirichlet problems associated with p-Laplacian operators. From Picone-type identities [4,9], we obtain results comparing solutions of two types of equations. We also present results related to those operators using Picone-type identities.
