Some Liouville Theorems for the p-Laplacian

preprint2001arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present several Liouville type results for the pp-Laplacian in RN\R^N. Suppose that hh is a nonnegative regular function such that h(x)=a∣x∣γfor ∣x∣ large, a>0 and γ>−p. h(x) = a|x|^γ {\rm for}\ |x|\ {\rm large},\ a>0\ {\rm and}\ γ> -p. We obtain the following non -existence result: 1) Suppose that N>p>1N>p>1, and u∈Wloc1,p(RN)∩C(RN)u\in W^{1,p}_{loc} (\R^N)\cap {\cal C} (\R^N) is a nonnegative weak solution of $ - {\rm div} (|\nabla u|^{p-2 }\nabla u) \geq h(x) u^q \;\;\mbox{in }\; \R^N $ . Suppose that p−1<q≤(N+γ)(p−1)N−pp-1< q\leq {(N+γ)(p-1)\over N-p} then u≡0u\equiv 0. 2) Let N≤pN\leq p. If u∈Wloc1,p(RN)∩C(RN)u\in W^{1,p}_{loc} (\R^N)\cap {\cal C} (\R^N) is a weak solution bounded below of −div(∣∇u∣p−2∇u)≥0-{\rm div} (|\nabla u|^{p-2 }\nabla u)\geq 0 in RN\R^N then uu is constant. 3) Let N>pN>p if uu is bounded from below and −div(∣∇u∣p−2∇u)=0-{\rm div} (|\nabla u|^{p-2 }\nabla u)=0 in RN\R^N then uu is constant. 4)If −Δpu+h(x)uq≤0, -Δ_p u+h(x) u^q\leq 0, . If q>p−1q> p-1, then u≡0u\equiv 0.
