Positive solutions for nonlinear hemivariational inequalities

Abstract

In this paper we study the existence of positive solutions for nonlinear problems driven by the p-Laplacian or more generally, by multivalued p-Laplacian-like operators. Both problems have a nonsmooth locally Lipschitz potential (hemivariational inequalities). Using variational methods based on the nonsmooth critical point theory, we prove two existence results with the p-Laplacian and multivalued p-Laplacian-like operators.
