Existence results for quasilinear elliptic systems in RN. <i>Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 1999</i>(39), pp. 1-15.1072-6691https://hdl.handle.net/10877/8877We prove existence results for the quasilinear elliptic system -∆pu = λα(x)|u|γ-2u + λb(x)|u|α-1|v|β+1u, -∆qv = λd(x)|v|δ-2v + λb(x)|u|α+1|v|β-1v, where γ and δ may reach the critical Sobolev exponents, and the coefficient functions α, b, and d may change sign. For the unperturbed system (α = 0, b = 0), we establish the existence and simplicity of a positive principal eigenvalue, under the assumption that u(x) > 0, v(x) > 0, and lim|x|→∞ u(x) = 0.Text15 pages1 file (.pdf)enAttribution 4.0 Internationalp-LaplacianNonlinear eigenvalue problemsHomogeneous Sobolev spacesMaximum principlePalais-Smale ConditionArticle
