چکیده
Assuming that a system of quasilinear equations of gradient type admits a strict supersolution and a strict subsolution, we show that it also admits a positive solution.

Existence and Nonexistence Results for Quasilinear Semipositone Dirichlet Problems
We use the sub/supersolution method to analyze a semipositone Dirichlet problem for the p-Laplacian. To find a positive solution, we therefore focus on a related problem that produces positive subsolutions. We establish a new nonexistence result for this subsolution problem on general domains, discuss the existence of positive radial subsolutions on balls, and then apply our results to problems...
متن کاملViscosity Subsolutions and Supersolutions for Non-uniformly and Degenerate Elliptic Equations
In the present paper we study the Dirichlet boundary value problem for quasilinear elliptic equations including non-uniformly and degenerate ones. In particular, we consider mean curvature equation and pseudo p-Laplace equation as well. It is well-known that the proof of the existence of continuous viscosity solutions is based on Ishii’s implementation of Perron’s method. In order to use this m...
متن کاملUniqueness of Constrained Viscosity Solutions in Hybrid Control Systems
We study constrained viscosity solutions with an unbounded growth for a class of first order Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equations arising in hybrid control systems. To deal with the boundary constraint and rapid growth of the solutions, we construct a particular set of test functions and under very mild conditions establish a comparison theorem which gives the estimate of distance between the subs...
متن کاملON QUASILINEAR ELLIPTIC SYSTEMS INVOLVING MULTIPLE CRITICAL EXPONENTS
In this paper, we consider the existence of a non-trivial weaksolution to a quasilinear elliptic system involving critical Hardyexponents. The main issue of the paper is to understand thebehavior of these Palais-Smale sequences. Indeed, the principaldifficulty here is that there is an asymptotic competition betweenthe energy functional carried by the critical nonlinearities. Thenby the variatio...
متن کاملA Liouville-type theorem for Schrödinger operators
In this paper we prove a sufficient condition, in terms of the behavior of a ground state of a symmetric critical operator P1, such that a nonzero subsolution of a symmetric nonnegative operator P0 is a ground state. Particularly, if Pj := −∆ + Vj , for j = 0, 1, are two nonnegative Schrödinger operators defined on Ω ⊆ R such that P1 is critical in Ω with a ground state φ, the function ψ 0 is a...
