Abstract

Existence and location of solutions to a Dirichlet problem driven by (pq)-Laplacian and containing a (convection) multivalued term fully depending on the solution and its gradient are established through the method of subsolution–supersolution. This result extends preceding works, in particular improving the growth condition for the lower order terms and allowing multivalued nonlinearities. A criterion for the existence of positive solutions with a priori estimates is obtained. Finally, an application to hemivariational inequalities is given.
