Abstract

We discuss recent advances in the theory of quasilinear equations of the type Δpu=σuq-\Delta_{p} u = \sigma u^{q} in Rn\mathbb R^n, in the case 0<q<p10 < q < p-1, where σ\sigma is a nonnegative measurable function, or measure, for the pp-Laplacian Δpu=div(up2u)\Delta_{p}u= \mathrm{div}(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u), as well as more general quasilinear, fractional Laplacian, and Hessian operators.

Within this context, we obtain some new results, in particular, necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions uBMO(Rn),uLlocr(Rn)u \in \mathrm{BMO}(\mathbb R^n), u \in L^r_{{\mathrm loc}}(\mathbb R^n), etc., and prove an enhanced version of Wolff's inequality for intrinsic nonlinear potentials associated with such problems.
