Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Moving from the seminal papers by Bobkov and Tanaka [“On positive solutions for ( p , q )-Laplace equations with two parameters,” Calc. Var. Partial Differ. Equ. , vol. 54, pp. 3277–3301, 2015, “Remarks on minimizers for ( p , q )-Laplace equations with two parameters,” Commun. Pure Appl. Anal. , vol. 17, pp. 1219–1253, 2018, “Multiplicity of positive solutions for ( p , q )-Laplace equations with two parameters,” Commun. Contemp. Math. , vol. 24, 2022, Art. no. 2150008] on the spectrum of the ( p , q )-Laplacian, we analyze the case of the double-phase operator. We discuss the region of parameters in which existence and non-existence of positive solutions occur. The proofs are based on normalization procedures, the Nehari manifold, and truncation techniques, exploiting Picone-type inequalities and an ad-hoc strong maximum principle.
