Maximum and antimaximum principles for the p-Laplacian with weighted Steklov boundary conditions

Mabel Cuesta, Liamidi Leadi, Pascaline Nshimirimana

Abstract:
We study the maximum and antimaximum principles for the p-Laplacian operator under Steklov boundary conditions with an indefinite weight

where $\Omega$ is a smooth bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^N$, N>1. After reviewing some elementary properties of the principal eigenvalues of the p-Laplacian under Steklov boundary conditions with an indefinite weight, we investigate the maximum and antimaximum principles for this problem. Also we give a characterization for the interval of the validity of the uniform antimaximum principle.
