Abstract:
This work establishes the existence of positive solutions to a quasilinear singular elliptic
equations involving the (p-q)-Laplacian operator with singularities and a vanishing potential.
We adapt the penalization method developed by del Pino and Felmer and we consider an auxiliary
problem whose corresponding functional satisfies the geometry of the mountain-pass theorem;
then, we prove that the Palais-Smale sequences are bounded in a Sobolev space; after that,
we show that the auxiliary problem has a solution. Finally, we use the Moser iteration
scheme to obtain an appropriate estimate and we conclude that the solution to the auxiliary
problem is also a solution to the original problem.
