Abstract

We investigate the following quasilinear elliptic equation:

Δpu + uq + λup*-1 =0 , uW1,p0(Ω), (1λ)


where Ω is a bounded domain in RN with smooth boundary, Δpu=div(| u |p-2 u), N≥3, 2≤p < N, 0<q<1, and p*= (Np)/(N-p). By using variational methods, we obtain a lower bound of the extremal value λ*(Ω,p,q) for equation (1λ), which can be explicitly calculated.
