Nonlinear Picone identities to Pseudo $p$-Laplace operator and applications

Abstract

In this paper, we derive a nonlinear Picone identity to the pseudo p-Laplace operator, which contains some known Picone identities and removes a condition used in many previous papers. Some applications are given including a Liouville type theorem to the singular pseudo p-Laplace system, a Sturmian comparison principle to the pseudo p-Laplace equation, a new Hardy type inequality with weight and remainder term, a nonnegative estimate of the functional associated to pseudo p-Laplace equation.
