Sobolev versus Hölder local minimizers and existence of multiple solutions for a singular quasilinear equation

Jacques Giacomoni, Ian Schindler, Peter Takáč (2007)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

We investigate the following quasilinear and singular problem, t o 2 . 7 c m - Δ p u = λ u δ + u q in Ω ; u | Ω = 0 , u > 0 in Ω , t o 2 . 7 c m (P) where Ω is an open bounded domain with smooth boundary, 1 < p < , p - 1 < q p * - 1 , λ > 0 , and 0 < δ < 1 . As usual, p * = N p N - p if 1 < p < N , p * ( p , ) is arbitrarily large if p = N , and p * = if p > N . We employ variational methods in order to show the existence of at least two distinct (positive) solutions of problem (P) in W 0 1 , p ( Ω ) . While following an approach due to Ambrosetti-Brezis-Cerami, we need to prove two new results of separate interest: a strong comparison principle and a regularity result for solutions...
