RT Journal Article T1 Positive solutions for φ-Laplacian equations with discontinuous state-dependent forcing terms A1 Precup, Radu A1 Rodríguez López, Jorge K1 Discontinuous differential equation K1 φ-Laplacian problem K1 Positive solution K1 Fixed point K1 Multivalued map K1 Infinitely many solutions AB This paper concerns the existence, localization and multiplicity of positive solutions fora -Laplacian problem with a perturbed term that may have discontinuities in the state variable.First, the initial discontinuous differential equation is replaced by a differential inclusion withan upper semicontinuous term. Next, the existence and localization of a positive solution of theinclusion is obtained via a compression-expansion fixed point theorem for a composition of twomultivalued maps, and finally, a suitable control of discontinuities allows to prove that any solutionof the inclusion is a solution in the sense of Carathéodory of the initial discontinuous equation. Nomonotonicity assumptions on the nonlinearity are required PB Vilnius University Press SN 1392-5113 YR 2019 FD 2019 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/21169 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/21169 LA eng NO PrecupR. and Rodríguez-LópezJ.
