Abstract

Let Ω be a bounded open interval, and let p>1 and q∈(0,p-1). Let m∈L^{p′}(Ω) and 0≤c∈L^{∞}(Ω). We study existence of strictly positive solutions for elliptic problems of the form -(|u′|^{p-2}u′)′+c(x)u^{p-1}=m(x)u^{q} in Ω, u=0 on ∂Ω. We mention that our results are new even in the case c≡0. 10.1017/S0004972713000725
