Abstract

Our goal is to establish the theorems of existence and multiple of positive entire solutions for a class quasilinear elliptic equations in N with the Schauder-Tychonoff fixed point theorem as the principal tool. In many articles, the theorems of existence and multiple of positive entire solutions for a class semilinear elliptic equations are established. The results of the semilinear equations are extended to the quasilinear ones and the results of semilinear equations are developed.
