Abstract

In this paper we present a result of existence of infinitely many arbitrarily small positive solutions to the following Dirichlet problem involving the p-Laplacian, where Ω ∈ RN is a bounded open set with sufficiently smooth boundary ∂Ω, p > 1, λ > 0, and f: Ω × R → R is a Carathéodory function satisfying the following condition: there exists > 0 such that Precisely, our result ensures the existence of a sequence of a.e. positive weak solutions to the above problem, converging to zero in L(Ω).
