Abstract
We study the nonlinear boundary value problem in Ω, u = 0 on ∂Ω, where Ω is a bounded domain in ℝ
N
with smooth boundary; λ, μ are positive real numbers; p
1, p
2, q, α are a continuous functions on
; V
1 and V
2 are weight functions in the generalized Lebesgues spaces
and
respectively, such that V
1 > 0 in an open set Ω0 ⊂ Ω and V
2 ≥ 0 on Ω. We prove, under appropriate conditions that for any μ > 0, there exists a λ* large enough, such that for any λ ≥ λ*, the above nonhomogeneous quasilinear problem has a non-trivial positive weak solution. Moreover, under supplementary conditions on these functions, we establish that for any μ, λ > 0, the problem has a non-trivial solution. The proof relies on some variational method.
