    Discuss the following p-Monge-Ampère equation

    {det(D(|Du|p2Du))=g(|x|)f(|x|,u)  in B,u=0  on B, (1.1)

    and system

    {det(D(|Dui|p2Dui))=gi(|x|)fi(|x|,u1,u2,,un)  in B,ui=0  on B. (1.2)

    Here p2, iIn:={1,2,,n}, g, giC[0,1) are all singular at 1, B:={yRm:|y|<1}, and m, n2 are integers.

    A new operator proposed by Trudinger-Wang in [1] is p-Monge-Ampère operator, which is denoted by det(D(|Du|p2Du)). And such operator just is Monge-Ampère operator when p=2.

    Let M be a m×m real symmetric array, and

    σl(μ(M))=1i1<<ilmμi1μil

    denote the lth elemental symmetric function, where μ1,μ2,μm are the eigenvalues of M.

    If uΦp(Ω) satisfying (1.1), then u is said to be a p-convex strong solution. Here

    Φp(Rm):={uW2,qmloc(Rm):|Du|p2DuC1(Rm),λ(Di(|Du|p2Dju))Γm in Rm},

    where 1<q<p1p2, and

    Γm:={λRm:σl(λ)>0,l{1,2,,m}}.

    Now, we review several excellent conclusions related to p-Monge-Ampère Dirichlet problem (1.1) and system (1.2).

    Results of equations and systems involving p-Laplacian operator:

    We refer to the following articles [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16] for p-Laplacian equations and systems. We need to specifically mention here that Hai-Shivaji [17] investigated

    {Δpv=λf(v)  in D,v=0  on D. (1.3)

    Here p>1, λ denotes a positive parameter, and D denotes the unit ball in Rn (n1). Since a positive solution of (1.3) in the unit ball is radially symmetric, so the authors resolved the problem of ordinary differential equation

    {(rn1|v|p2v)=λrn1f(v),v(0)=0, v(1)=0. (1.4)

    The authors mainly used a sub-super solution method to demonstrate the uniqueness and existence of positive solution for problem (1.4).

    Recently, Feng-Zhang [18] employed the eigenvalue theory to discuss the existence of positive solution for the p-Laplacian elliptic system

    {Δpz1=λ1h1(|x|)zα2  in D,Δpz2=λ2h2(|x|)zβ1  in D,z1=z2=0  on  D.

    Here λ1, λ20 are parameters, α, β>0, and D denotes the unit ball in Rn (n2). The authors obtained a uniqueness and approximation result by iterations of the solution.

    In [19], Lan-Zhang considered the system of p-Laplace equations

    {Δpui=fi(x,u1,u2,,un)  in Ω,ui=0  on Ω, (1.5)

    where i{1,2,,n}. The authors obtained new existence results of nonzero positive weak solutions of (1.4) under some sublinear conditions by employing a well-known theorem of fixed point index on cones for completely continuous operators. The other recent results concerning p-Laplacian equations and systems can be found in Ju-Bisci-Zhang [20] and He-Ousbika-Allali-Zuo [21].

    Results of equations and systems involving Monge-Ampère operator:

    We observe that large numbers of mathematicians care about the existence of solution of equations and systems involving Monge-Ampère operator; see [22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37] and the bibliographies. Particularly, Cheng-Yau [40] considered the following Monge-Ampère problem

    {detD2v=v(n+2)  in Ω,v=0  on Ω, (1.6)

    where n2. Employing the Legendre transform and the approximated method, they derived some existence results of solution of (1.5).

    In [41], Feng investigated

    {det D2u=μf(u)  in Ω,u=0  on Ω, (1.7)

    where μ is a positive parameter. He use sharp estimates to verify that (1.6) admits at most one nontrivial radial convex solution.

    On systems involving Monge-Ampère operator, we only find a few results. In particular, Zhang-Qi [42] considered

    {det D2v1=(v2)α  in Ω,det D2v2=(v1)β  in Ω,v1<0,  v2<0  in Ω,v1=v2=0  on Ω,

    where α and β are two positive numbers. Using the index theory of fixed points on cones, they obtained several existence, nonexistence and uniqueness results of radial convex solutions when Ω denotes the unit ball in Rn.

    In [41], Feng considered a more general system

    {det D2v1=λ1f1(v2)  in Ω,det D2v2=λ2f2(v3)  in Ω,                  det D2vn=λnfn(v1)  in Ω,v1=v2==vn=0  on Ω, (1.8)

    where λi>0 (i{1,2,,n}) are parameters. He got some new existence and nonexistence results of (1.7) by means of the eigenvalue theory on cones.

    Recently, Feng [43] derived some existence, nonexistence and multiplicity results of nontrivial radial convex solutions of

    {det D2v1=λh1(|x|)f1(v2),in  Ω,det D2v2=λh2(|x|)f2(v1),in  Ω,v1=v2=0,  on  Ω

    for a certain range of λ>0.

    More recently, in [44], Feng discussed the existence of nontrivial solution of

    {det(D(|Dv|p2Dv))=λh(|x|)f(|x|,v)  in Ω,v=0  on Ω, (1.9)

    where λ denotes a positive parameter. We also refer to Xu [38] and Lian-Wang-Xu [39] for the related results of p-Monge-Ampère problems.

    Remark 1. There is almost no article except [44] studying p-Monge-Ampère equation. But, in [44], the author only dealt with the existence of nontrivial solution, not the multiplicity of nontrivial solutions; and the author only studied single p-Monge-Ampère equation, not system of p-Monge-Ampère equations.

    Inspired by the above, we first search the multiplicity of nontrivial p-convex radial solutions of (1.1). Our proof makes use of the fixed point index theory on cones, which is completely different from that used in [41] and [44]. Then we seek existence and multiplicity results of nontrivial solutions of (1.2) by employing the theory of fixed point on cons when fi (iIn) satisfy some new growth conditions.

    The article will be organized as follows. In next section, we are going to study the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial p-convex radial solutions of (1.1). In addition, many nontrivial p-convex radial solutions are also studied. The third part will search nontrivial p-convex radial solution of system (1.2).

    Let us seek multiple nontrivial radial solutions of (1.1) in this section. In [45], Bao-Feng pointed out that one can change (1.1) into

    {r1n(1n(u)(p1)n)=g(r)f(r,u),  0<r<1,u(0)=u(1)=0. (2.1)

    Setting v=u, then one can rewrite (2.1) as follows:

    {r1n(1n(v)(p1)n)=g(r)f(r,v),  0<r<1,v(0)=v(1)=0. (2.2)

    We make the following suppositions:

    (C1) g:[0,1)R+ is continuous, g(t)0 on any subinterval of [0,1), and

    10g(t)dt<+,

    where R+=[0,+);

    (C2) f:[0,1]×R+R+ is continuous.

    Remark 2. It is not difficult to see that there are some elementary functions that satisfy (C1). For example

    g(r)=cπ1r2,

    where c is a positive real number.

    Obviously, g:[0,1)R+ is continuous, and g(t)0 on any subinterval of [0,1).

    Next, we verify that g satisfies 10g(t)dt<+.

    In fact,

    10g(r)dr=10cπ1r2dr             =limb0+1b0cπ1r2dr             =cπlimb0+[arcsinr]1b0             =cπlimb0+arcsin(1b)             =c2,

    which indicates that 10g(t)dt<+.

    Let J=[0,1] and E:=C[0,1]. Then E is a real Banach space (RBS for short) with the norm denoted by

    x=maxtJ|x(t)|.

    Lemma 2.1. If (C1) and (C2) holds, then v is a solution of (2.2) when and only when vE is a solution of

    v(t)=1t(τ0nsn1h(s)f(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndτ, (2.3)

    and

    mint[14,34]v(t)14v. (2.4)

    Proof. Similar to the proof of Lemma 2.1 in [44], we can prove that Lemma 2.1 is correct.

    Let KE be

    K={uE:v(t)0,tJ, min14t34u(t)14u}. (2.5)

    Define an operator T:KE as

    (Tv)(t)=1t(τ0nsn1g(s)f(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndτ, vK. (2.6)

    When (C1) and (C2) hold, one can verify that T:KE is compact.

    We shall apply the well-known fixed points index theorem to discuss problem (2.2), which can be found in Amann [46]. In addition, we use i(A,PΩ,P) to denote the fixed point index over PΩ with regard to P in Lemma 2.2.

    Lemma 2.2. Let E be a real Banach space. Suppose that PE is a cone and ΩE is a bounded open subset. Let A:PˉΩP be a completely continuous operator, which admits no fixed points on Ω. Then the following three conclusions are correct:

    (1) Suppose that there is a v0>0 so that vAvtv0,  vPΩ,  t0. Then

    i(A,PΩ,P)=0.

    (2) Suppose that Avμv for v(PΩ) and μ1. Then

    i(A,PΩ,P)=1.

    (3) Suppose that U is open in P so that ˉUPΩ. Then A admits a fixed point in (PΩ)(ˉUΩ) when i(A,PΩ,P)=1 and i(A,UP,P)=0. The same conclusion is also correct when i(A,PΩ,P)=0 and i(A,UP,P)=1.

    Remark 2.1. From Lan-Zhang [19], it is obvious to see that Lemma 2.1 is difficult to be applied to demonstrate the multiplicity of solutions of (2.2). In the present paper, we will use Lemma 2.2 to search the multiplicity of nonnegative solutions of (2.2). This needs some new ingredients in our proof.

    For ρ>0, we set

    Ωρ={vK:mint[14,34]v(t)<14ρ}={vE:14vmint[14,34]v(t)<14ρ}.

    We also set

    Kρ={vK:v<ρ}.

    According to a result of Lemma 2.5 in Lan [47], we can demonstrate that Ωρ is an open set relative to K and

    (1)  K14ρΩρKρ;

    (2)  vΩρ if and only if mint[14,34]v(t)=14ρ;

    (3) if vΩρ, then 14ρv(t)ρ for t[14,34].

    Define

    fρ14ρ=min{mint[14,34]f(t,u)ρ(p1)n:u[14ρ,ρ]},
    fρ0=max{maxtJf(t,u)ρ(p1)n:u[0,ρ]},
    f=limusupmaxtJf(t,u)u, f=limuinfmintJf(t,u)u,
    l=1nd2,   L=4pn1nd1,

    where

    d1=3414g(s)ds,  d2=10g(s)ds.

    Theorem 2.1. Under conditions (C1) and (C2), if there are ρ1,ρ2,ρ3(0,) satisfying ρ1<14ρ2 and ρ2<ρ3 so that

    (C3) fρ10<l or fρ30<l, and

    (C4) fρ214ρ2>L,

    then (2.2) admits a positive p-convex solution v with

    vΩρ2ˉKρ1 or vKρ3ˉΩρ2.

    Proof. For all vΩρ2, we assume that

    vTvθ. (2.7)

    Otherwise, then there is vΩρ2 so that Tv=v.

    According to (C3), we deduce that

    f(t,v)>Lρ(p1)n2, t[14,34], v[14ρ2,ρ2]. (2.8)

    Setting w(t)1, tJ, then wK with w1. We claim

    vTvζw  (vΩρ2, ζ0). (2.9)

    In reality, if there are v0Ωρ2 and ζ00 so that v0Tv0=ζ0w. Then (2.7) indicates that ζ0>0.

    So, for any t[14,34], we derive from (2.6) and (2.8) that

    v0(t)=1t(τ0nsn1g(s)f(s,v0(s))ds)1(p1)ndτ+ζ0w(s)       134(3414nsn1g(s)f(s,v0(s))ds)1(p1)ndτ+ζ0w(s)       >134(3414nsn1g(s)Lρ(p1)n2ds)1(p1)ndτ+ζ0w(s)       [Ln(14)n1]1(p1)n14ρ2(3414g(s))ds)1(p1)n+ζ0w(s)       =[Ln(14)n1d1]1(p1)n14ρ2+ζ0w(s)       =ρ2+ζ0w(s).

    This indicates that ρ2>ρ2+ζ0 by the property (3) of Ωρ, which leads to a conflict. So, (2.9) is correct. Hence it yields by (1) of Lemma 2.2

    i(T,Ωρ2,K)=0. (2.10)

    Moreover, by the definition of fρ10 and fρ10<l, we derive

    f(t,v)<lρ(p1)n1, tJ, v[0,ρ1].

    Next, we demonstrate that

    vKρ1, μ1Tvμv. (2.11)

    Actually, if there are v1Kρ1 and μ11 so that Tv1=μ1v1, then we derive from (2.6) that

    μ1v1(t)=1t(τ0nsn1g(s)f(s,v1(s))ds)1(p1)ndτ         10(10nsn1g(s)f(s,v1(s))ds)1(p1)ndτ         <10(10nsn1g(s)lρ(p1)n1ds)1(p1)ndτ         (ln)1(p1)nρ1(10g(s)ds)1(p1)n         (lnd2)1(p1)nρ1         =ρ1, tJ,

    which indicates that μv1<ρ1. We so derive that μρ1<ρ1. This shows that μ<1, which contradicts μ1. Hence (2.11) is correct. From (2) of Lemma 2.2, we derive

    i(T,Kρ1,K)=1. (2.12)

    In addition, one can similarly demonstrate

    i(T,Kρ3,K)=1. (2.13)

    Noticing that ρ1<γρ2, we have ˉKρ1Kγρ2Ωρ2. It so follows from (3) of Lemma 2.2 that (2.2) possesses a positive p-convex solution v satisfying vΩρ2ˉKρ1 or vKρ3ˉΩρ2. So Theorem 2.1 is correct.

    From the proof of Theorem 2.1, one can obtain the following conclusions.

    Theorem 2.2. Under conditions (C1) and (C2), if there exist ρ1,ρ2,ρ3(0,) with ρ1<14ρ2 and ρ2<ρ3 so that fρ10<l and fρ30<l, and (C4) holds, then problem (2.2) has two positive p-convex solutions v1, v2 with

    v1Ωρ2ˉKρ1,   v2Kρ3ˉΩρ2.

    Corollary 2.1. Under conditions (C1) and (C2), if there are ρ,ρ(0,) with ρ<14ρ so that fρ0<l, fρ14ρ>L and 0f<l, then (2.2) admits two positive p-convex solutions in K.

    Proof. We just need to verify that 0f<l yields that there exists a ρ3 such that fρ30<l.

    Set η(f,l). So there is r>η so that

    maxtJf(t,v)ηv, v[r,+)

    because of 0f<l. Letting

    γ=max{maxtJf(t,v):v[0,r]} and ρ3>max{γlη,ρ},

    then

    maxtJf(t,v)ηv+γηρ3+γ<lρ3, v[0,ρ3].

    This indicates that fρ30<l.

    Similarly, one can derive the following result.

    Theorem 2.3. Under conditions (C1) and (C2), suppose that there exist ρ1,ρ2,ρ3(0,) with ρ1<ρ2<ρ3 so that

    (C5) fρ20<l,  fρ114ρ1>L and fρ314ρ3>L,

    then (2.2) admits two positive p-convex solutions v1, v2 with

    v1Ωρ2ˉKρ1, v2Kρ3ˉΩρ2.

    The following conclusion is a special circumstances of Theorem 2.3.

    Corollary 2.2. Under conditions (C1) and (C2), suppose that there are ρ,ρ(0,) with ρ<14ρ such that fρ0<l, fρ14ρ>L and L<f+, then (2.2) admits two positive p-convex solutions in K.

    Moreover, one can generalize Theorem 2.2 and Theorem 2.3 to derive many solutions.

    Theorem 2.4. Under conditions (C1) and (C2), if there are

    {ρi}2N0i=1(0,) with ρ1<γρ2<ρ2<ρ3<γρ4<<ρ2N0

    so that

    (C6) fρ2N10<l, fρ2N14ρ2N>L, N{1,2,,N0},

    then (2.2) admits 2N0 positive p-convex solutions in K.

    Theorem 2.5. Under conditions (C1) and (C2), if there exist

    {ρi}2N0i=1(0,) with ρ1<γρ2<ρ2<ρ3<γρ4<<ρ2N0

    so that

    (C7) fρ2N10<l, fρ2N14ρ2N>L, N{1,2,,N0},

    then (2.2) admits (2N01) positive p-convex solutions in K.

    In this section, we are gonging to discuss the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial p-convex solutions of system (1.2). Using a conclusion of Bao-Feng [45], we can change system (1.2) into

    {r1n(1n(ui)(p1)n)=gi(r)fi(r,u1,u2,,un),  0<r<1,ui(0)=0,  ui(1)=0,  iIn. (3.1)

    Letting vi=ui for iIn, then one can rewrite (3.1) as

    {r1n(1n(vi)(p1)n)=gi(r)fi(r,v1,v2,,vn),  0<r<1,vi(0)=0,  vi(1)=0,  iIn. (3.2)

    For each iIn, we assume that gi and fi gratify

    (G) gi:[0,1)R+ is continuous, gi(s)0 in any subinterval of [0,1), and

    10gi(s)ds<+;

    (F) fi:J×Rn+R+ are continuous for iIn, where

    J=[0,1], R+=[0,+), Rn+=nR+×R+××R+.

    Let v(t)=(v1(t),v2(t),,vn(t)). Then v(t) is a positive p-convex solution of system (3.2) iff v(r) is a solution of

    vi(r)=1r(t0nsn1hi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt, rJ, iIn. (3.3)

    Let || denote the maximum norm in Rn defined by |v|=max{|vi|:iIn}, where v=(v1,v2,,vn)Rn, and set

    (Rn+)J={vRn+:|v|J},

    where J=[l1,l2] if l1,l2[0,) with l1l2 and J=[l1,l2) if l1,l2[0,] with l1<l2.

    We also let Y=C(J;Rn). Then Y is a RBS of continuous functions from J into Rn with norm v=max{vi0, iIn}, where 0 denotes the supremum norm of C[0,1].

    Under conditions (G) and (F), if v is a positive solution of (3.2), then from Lemma 2.1 of Feng [43] we derive

    minrJ0vi(r)14vi0, (3.4)

    where J0=[14,34].

    Hence one can define a cone P in Y as

    P={v=(v1,v2,,vn)Y: vi(r)0, rJ}. (3.5)

    Let T=(T1,T2,,Tn) and (G) and (F) hold. Then we can show that T:PP is a compact operator. We understand

    Tv=(T1v,T2v,,Tnv),

    where

    (Tiv)(r)=1r(t0nsn1gi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt,  iIn. (3.6)

    Denote a fixed point equation by

    v=T(v), vP. (3.7)

    Our main goal is to look for nonzero fixed points of operator T because (3.2) is equivalent to (3.7).

    We will apply a well known fixed point theorem for compact maps to tackle system (3.2), which can be found in Amann [46]).

    Lemma 3.1. Let E be a real Banach space. Suppose that Ω1 and Ω2 are two bounded open sets in E with θΩ1 and ˉΩ1Ω2. Suppose that P is a cone in E and operator A:P(ˉΩ2Ω1)P is completely continuous. Let one of the following two conditions

    (a) there is a u0>0 such that uAutu0,uPΩ2,t0; Auμu,uPΩ1,μ1,

    (b) there is a u0>0 such that uAutu0,uPΩ1,t0; Auμu,uPΩ2,μ1 be satisfied. Then A admits at least one fixed point in P(Ω2ˉΩ1).

    For iIn, let

    (fi)=lim sup|v(p1)n|+maxsJfi(s,v)|v|(p1)n,  (fi)=lim inf|v|+minsJfi(s,v)|v|(p1)n,
    (fi)0=lim sup|v|0+maxsJfi(s,v)|v|(p1)n,  (fi)0=lim inf|v|0+minsJfi(s,v)|v|(p1)n,
    f=max{(fi), iIn},  f=max{(fi), iIn},
    f0=max{(fi)0, iIn},  f0=max{(fi)0, iIn},
    (Fi):=lim_|v|+fi(s,v) uniformly for sJ,

    and

    Dni=ndi,  Dni0=[(14)pn1ndi0],

    where

    di=10gi(s)ds,  di0=3414gi0(s)ds.

    Theorem 3.1. Under conditions (G) and (F), if in addition there exists i0In such that

    Dnif<1<Dni0(fi0)0,

    then we derive:

    (i) (3.2) has a positive p-convex solution v=(v1,v2,,vn); and then

    (ii) (1.2) has a nontrivial p-convex radial solution u=(u1,u2,,un), where

    ui(|x|)=vi(r) for iIn and rJ.

    Proof. We assume that there is l1>0 so that

    vTvθ, vP, 0<vl1. (3.8)

    If not, then there is vPl1 such that

    Tv=v.

    On the one hand, it yields from the definition of (fi0)0 and Di0(fi0)0>1 that there are ε1>0 and l2>0 such that

    fi0(s,v)((fi0)0ε1)|v|(p1)n,  sJ,  vPl2, (3.9)

    where ε1 gratifies that

    Dni0((fi0)0ε1)1.

    For iIn, letting w={w1,w2,,wn} with wi(s)1 for sJ, then wP with wi01. Next, we demonstrate

    vTvζw  (vPl, ζ0), (3.10)

    where

    0<l<min{l1,l2}.

    In reality, if there are vPl and ζ0 so that vTv=ζw. Then (3.8) shows that ζ>0 and

    vi0=ζwi0+Ti0vζwi0.

    Let

    ζ=sup{ζ|vi0ζwi0}. (3.11)

    Then

    ζ=ζwi00vi00=l<l2[Dni0((fi0)0ε1)]1(p1)n1.

    Therefore, for any rJ0, we derive from (3.6), (3.9) and (3.11) that

    vi0(r)=1r(t0nsn1gi0(s)fi0(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        134(3414nsn1gi0(s)fi0(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        134(3414nsn1gi0(s)((fi0)0ε1)|v(s)|(p1)nds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        134(3414nsn1gi0(s)((fi0)0ε1)|vi0(s)|(p1)nds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        134(3414nsn1gi0(s)((fi0)0ε1)(ζwi0(s))(p1)nds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        14ζ[n(14)n1((fi0)0ε1)]1(p1)n(3414gi0(s)ds)1(p1)n+ζwi0(r)        =14ζ[di0n(14)n1((fi0)0ε1)]1(p1)n+ζwi0(r)        =ζ[Dni0((fi0)0ε1)]1(p1)n+ζwi0(r)        ζ+ζwi0(r)        =(ζ+ζ)wi0(r),

    which conflicts with the definition of ζ. So, (3.10) is correct.

    In addition, by the definition of f and Dif<1 we have that there are ε2>0 and l3>0 so that

    fi(s,v)((fi)+ε2)|v|(p1)n, sJ, v(Rn+)[l3,).

    Define

    Li=maxsJ,v(Rn+)[0,l3]fi(s,v).

    We so derive

    fi(s,v)((fi)+ε2)|v|(p1)n+Li, sJ,vRn+. (3.12)

    Set

    R>{l3,(LiDni1Dni(((fi)+ε2))(p1)n} (3.13)

    for iIn.

    We declare

    vPR, μ1Tvμv. (3.14)

    Actually, if there are vPR and μ1 so that Tv=μv, then for each iIn it follows from (3.6), (3.12) and (3.13) that

    μvi(r)=1r(t0nsn1gi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt         10(10nsn1gi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt         10(10ngi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt         <10(10ngi(s)(((fi)+ε2)|v(s)|(p1)n+Li)ds)1(p1)ndt         (10ngi(s)(((fi)+ε2)v(p1)n+Li)ds)1(p1)n         =[n(((fi)+ε2)v(p1)n+Li)]1(p1)n(10gi(s))ds)1(p1)n         =[ndi(((fi)+ε2)v(p1)n+Li)]1(p1)n         <R,

    which shows that μvi0<R, and then we have μv<R. We hence derive μR<R. This indicates that μ<1, which conflicts with μ1. So (3.14) is correct.

    From Lemma 3.1 (b), it hence yields from (3.10) and (3.14) that T possesses a fixed point v in PRˉPl satisfying l<v<R. So (3.2) has a positive p-convex solution v satisfying l<v<R. Hence we finish the proof of Theorem 3.1.

    Remark 3.1. Although the essence of Lemma 2.1 and Lemma 3.1 is the same, the specific processing technique of Theorem 3.1 is different from that of Theorem 2.1.

    Theorem 3.2. Under conditions (G) and (F), if in addition there exists i0In such that

    Dnif0<1<Dni0(fi0),

    then we derive:

    (i) (3.2) has a positive p-convex solution v=(v1,v2,,vn); and then

    (ii) (1.2) has a nontrivial p-convex radial solution u=(u1,u2,,un), where

    ui(|x|)=vi(r) for iIn and rJ.

    Proof. We assume that (3.8) holds. Considering the definition of (fi0), then there are ε3>0 and ˆR>0 with ˆR>l1 so that

    fi0(s,v)((fi0)ε3)|v|(p1)n  (sJ,  v(Rn+)[ˆR,+)), (3.15)

    where ε3 satisfies that

    Dni0((fi0)ε3)1.

    For iIn, let

    w={w1,w2,,wn}

    with wi(s)1 for sJ. Then wP with wi1. Next, we demonstrate that

    vTvζw  (vPR, ζ0), (3.16)

    where R=4ˆR.

    In reality, if there are vPR and ζ0 so that vTv=ζw. Then (3.8) shows that ζ>0 and

    vi0=ζwi0+Ti0vζwi0.

    In addition, for vPR we derive

    vi(s)minsJ0vi(s)14vi014max{vi0, iIn}=14v=ˆR.

    Let ζ be defined as in (3.11). Then, for vPR and rJ0, we derive from (3.6) and (3.15) that

    vi0(r)=1r(t0nsn1gi0(s)fi0(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        134(3414nsn1gi0(s)fi0(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        134(3414nsn1gi0(s)((fi0)0ε3)|v(s)|(p1)nds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        134(3414nsn1gi0(s)((fi0)0ε3)|vi0(s)|(p1)nds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        134(3414nsn1gi0(s)((fi0)0ε3)(ζwi0(s))(p1)nds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        14ζ[n(14)n1((fi0)0ε3)]1(p1)n(3414gi0(s)ds)1(p1)n+ζwi0(r)        =14ζ[ndi0(14)n1((fi0)0ε3)]1(p1)n+ζwi0(r)        =ζ[ndi0(14)pn1((fi0)0ε3)]1(p1)n+ζwi0(r)        =ζ[Dni0((fi0)0ε3)]1(p1)n+ζwi0(r)        ζ+ζwi0(r)        =(ζ+ζ)wi0(r),

    which conflicts with the definition of ζ. So, (3.16) is correct.

    In addition, by the definition of f0 and Dnif0<1 we know that there are ε4>0 and l>0 with l<l1 so that

    fi(s,v)((fi)+ε4)|v|1(p1)n, sJ, v(Rn+)[0,l], (3.17)

    where ε4 satisfies

    2(p1)nDni((fi)0+ε4)1.

    We declare that

    vPl, μ1Tvμv. (3.18)

    Actually, if there are vPl and μ1 so that Tv=μv, then for each iIn it follows from (2.5) and (3.17) that

    μvi(r)=1r(t0nsn1gi(s)fi(s,v(s)))ds)1(p1)ndt         10(10nsn1gi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt         10(10ngi(s)fi(v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt         <10(10ngi(s)((fi)+ε4)|v(s)|(p1)nds)1(p1)ndt         (10ngi(s)((fi)+ε4)v(p1)nds)1(p1)n         =[n((fi)+ε4)]1(p1)nv(10gi(s)ds)1(p1)n         =[ndi((fi)+ε4)]1(p1)nv         =[Dni((fi)+ε4)]1(p1)nv         12v=12l<l,

    which shows that μvi0<l, and then we have μv<l. We hence derive μl<l. This indicates that μ<1, which conflicts with μ1. So (3.18) is correct.

    According to (b) of Lemma 3.1, it so yields from (3.16) and (3.18) that operator T possesses a fixed point v in PRˉPl satisfying l<v<R. So (3.2) has a positive p-convex solution v satisfying l<v<R. Therefore Theorem 3.2 is correct.

    Theorem 3.3. Under conditions (G) and (F), if in addition there exists i0In so that

    Dni0(fi0)0>1 or Dni0(fi0)>1

    and there is bi>0 so that

    maxsJ, v(Rn+)[0,bi]fi(s,v)<1Dnibi (3.19)

    for each iIn, then we have:

    (i) (3.2) possesses a positive p-convex solution v=(v1,v2,,vn) in P; and then

    (ii) (1.2) possesses a nontrivial p-convex radial solution u=(u1,u2,,un), where

    ui(|x|)=vi(r) for iIn and rJ.

    Proof. Here we only consider the case Dni0(fi0)0>1 and (3.19). We choose l with 0<l<bi for each iIn.

    If Dni0(fi0)0>1, then

    vTvζw  (vPl, ζ0). (3.20)

    The proof is similar to that of (3.10). Therefore, it is omitted.

    On the other hand, by (3.19), we can define

    Li=maxsJ,v(Rn+)[0,bi]fi(s,v)<D1nib(p1)ni. (3.21)

    Let

    b=max{bi:iIn}. (3.22)

    Next, we prove that

    vPb, μ1Tvμv. (3.23)

    Indeed, suppose that there are vPb and μ1 such that Tv=μv, then for each iIn it follows from (3.6), (3.21) and (3.22) that

    μvi(r)=1r(t0nsn1gi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt         10(10nsn1gi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt         (10ngi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)n         (10ngi(s)Lids)1(p1)n         =(nLi)1(p1)n(10gi(s)ds)1(p1)n         =(ndiLi)1(p1)n         =(DniLi)1(p1)n         <bib.

    which indicates that μvi0<b, and then we get μv<b. Thus we derive μb<b. So we have μ<1. This conflicts with μ1. Hence (3.23) is correct.

    So, by (3.20) and (3.23), it follows from (b) of Lemma 3.1 that T possesses a fixed point v in PbˉPl with l<v<b. This follows that (3.2) has a positive p-convex solution v satisfying l<v<b. So Theorem 3.3 is correct.

    Similarly, one can derive the following multiplicity conclusions.

    Theorem 3.4. Under conditions (G) and (F), if in addition there is i0In so that

    Dni0(fi0)0>1 and Dni0(fi0)>1

    and there is bi>0 so that (3.19) holds for each iIn, then we derive:

    (i) (3.2) possesses two p-convex positive solutions v and v in P with

    0<v<max{bi, iIn}<v;

    and then

    (ii) (1.2) possesses two nontrivial p-convex radial solutions u and u with

    ui(|x|)=vi(r)  ui(|x|)=vi(r) for iIn and rJ.

    Next, we consider the nonexistence result on system (3.2).

    Theorem 3.5. Under conditions (G) and (F), if for each iIn fi(s,v)<1Dni|v|(p1)n for all sJ and vR+ with |v|>0, then (3.2) possesses no positive solution.

    Proof. Conversely, suppose that v is a positive solution of system (3.2).

    So, for rJ, vP with v>0 we obtain that

       vi(r)=1r(t0nsn1gi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt         10(10nsn1gi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt         (10ngi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)n         <(10ngi(s)(1Dni|v(s)|)(p1)nds)1(p1)n         v(1Dnin)1(p1)n(10gi(s)ds)1(p1)n         =v(1Dnindi)1(p1)n         =v.

    This shows vi0<v, and hence we derive that v<v, a contradiction. So Theorem 3.5 is correct.

    Remark 3.2. It is interesting to point out that, for iIn, if we define

    (fi)=lim sup|v|+maxsJfi(s,v)|v|,  (fi)=lim inf|v|+minsJfi(s,v)|v|,
    (fi)0=lim sup|v|0+maxsJfi(s,v)|v|,  (fi)0=lim inf|v|0+minsJfi(s,v)|v|,
    f=max{(fi), iIn},  f=max{(fi), iIn},
    f0=max{(fi)0, iIn},  f0=max{(fi)0, iIn},

    then we derive:

    Theorem 3.6. Under conditions (H) and (F), if in addition there is i0In so that

    Dif<1<Di0(fi0)0,

    then we derive:

    (i) (3.2) has a p-convex positive solution v=(v1,v2,,vn); and then

    (ii) (1.2) has a nontrivial p-convex radial solution u=(u1,u2,,un), where

    ui(|x|)=vi(r) for iIn and rJ.

    Proof. We assume that there is l1>0 so that

    vTvθ, vP, 0<vl1. (3.24)

    If not, then there is vPl1 such that

    Tv=v.

    On the one hand, it yields from the definition of (fi0)0 and Di0(fi0)0>1 that there are ε1>0 and l2>0 such that

    fi0(s,v)((fi0)0ε1)|v|,  sJ,  vPl2. (3.25)

    For iIn, letting

    w={w1,w2,,wn}

    with wi(s)1 for sJ, then wP with wi01. Now, we clare

    vTvζw  (vPl, ζ0), (3.26)

    where

    0<l<min{l1,l2}.

    In reality, if there are vPl and ζ0 such that

    vTv=ζw.

    Then (3.24) indicates ζ>0 and

    vi0=ζwi0+Ti0vζwi0.

    Let

    ζ=sup{ζ|vi0ζwi0}. (3.27)

    Then

    ζ=ζwi00vi00=l<l2[Dni0((fi0)0ε1)]1(p1)n1.

    Therefore, for any rJ0, we derive from (3.6), (3.25) and (3.27) that

    vi0(r)=1r(t0nsn1gi0(s)fi0(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        134(3414nsn1gi0(s)fi0(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        134(3414nsn1gi0(s)((fi0)0ε1)|v(s)|ds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        134(3414nsn1gi0(s)((fi0)0ε1)|vi0(s)|ds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        134(3414nsn1gi0(s)((fi0)0ε1)ζwi0(s)ds)1(p1)ndt+ζwi0(r)        14[n(14)n1((fi0)0ε1)ζ]1(p1)n(3414gi0(s)ds)1(p1)n+ζwi0(r)        =14[di0n(14)n1((fi0)0ε1)ζ]1(p1)n+ζwi0(r)        =[Dni0((fi0)0ε1)ζ]1(p1)n+ζwi0(r)        ζ+ζwi0(r)        =(ζ+ζ)wi0(r),

    which conflicts with the definition of ζ. So, (3.26) is correct.

    In addition, by the definition of f and Dif<1 we know that there are ε2>0 and l3>0 so that

    fi(s,v)((fi)+ε2)|v|, sJ, v(Rn+)[l3,).

    Define

    Li=maxsJ,v(Rn+)[0,l3]fi(s,v).

    We so derive

    fi(s,v)((fi)+ε2)|v|+Li, sJ,vRn+. (3.28)

    Take R large enough (say R>l3) such that

    ndi((fi)+ε2)|v|Rpnn1+ndiLiRpnn<1 (3.29)

    for iIn.

    We declare

    vPR, μ1Tvμv. (3.30)

    Actually, if there are vPR and μ1 so that Tv=μv, then for each iIn it follows from (3.6), (3.28) and (3.29) that

    μvi(r)=1r(t0nsn1gi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt         10(10nsn1gi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt         10(10ngi(s)fi(s,v(s))ds)1(p1)ndt         <10(10ngi(s)(((fi)+ε2)|v(s)|+Li)ds)1(p1)ndt         (10ngi(s)(((fi)+ε2)v+Li)ds)1(p1)n         =[n(((fi)+ε2)v+Li)]1(p1)n(10gi(s))ds)1(p1)n         =[ndi(((fi)+ε2)v+Li)]1(p1)n         <R.

    This indicates that μvi0<R, and then we have μv<R. So we derive μR<R, which shows that μ<1. This conflicts with μ1. So (3.30) is correct.

    By (b) of Lemma 3.1, it so yields from (3.26) and (3.30) that operator T admits a fixed point v in PRˉPl satisfying l<v<R. Therefore (3.2) possesses a p-convex positive solution v satisfying l<v<R. Hence Theorem 3.6 is correct.

    Remark 3.3. It is not difficult to see that the technique to prove Theorem 3.6 is different from that used in Theorem 3.1. However, we can not apply this technique to prove:

    Theorem 3.7. Under conditions (H) and (F), if in addition there exists i0In such that

    Dnif0<1<Dni0(fi0),

    then we derive:

    (i) (3.2) has a p-convex positive solution v=(v1,v2,,vn); and then

    (ii) (1.2) has a nontrivial p-convex radial solution u=(u1,u2,,un), where

    ui(|x|)=vi(r) for iIn and rJ.

    Theorem 3.8. Under conditions (H) and (F), if in addition there exists i0In so that

    Dni0(fi0)0>1 and Dni0(fi0)>1

    and there is bi>0 so that (3.19) holds for each iIn, then we derive:

    (i) (3.2) possesses two p-convex positive solutions v and v in P with

    0<v<max{bi, iIn}<v;

    and then

    (ii) system (1.2) possesses two nontrivial p-convex radial solutions u and u with

    ui(|x|)=vi(r)  ui(|x|)=vi(r) for iIn and rJ.

    Remark 3. The conclusions in Theorems 3.1-3.8 can be generalized to the system of p-k-Hessian equation

    {σk(λ(Di(|DuI|p2DjuI)))=hI(|x|)fI(|x|,u1,u2,,un)  in Ω,u=0  on Ω.

    Here k{1,2,,n}, p2, hIC[0,1) is singular at 1 for each I{1,2,,n}, fI are continuous functions, Ω={xRn:|x|<1}. There is only a few results on problems involving p-k-Hessian operator; see Bao-Feng [45], Feng-Zhang [48], Kan-Zhang [49] and Zhang-Yang [50].

    In this paper, we study the singular p-Monge-Ampère problems: equations and systems of equations. we first analyze the multiplicity of nontrivial p-convex radial solutions to a single equation involving p-Monge-Ampère. Then, we establish some new criteria of existence, nonexistence and multiplicity for nontrivial p-convex radial solutions for a singular system of p-Monge-Ampère equation.
