Abstract:

In this paper, we study the multiplicity results of positive solutions for a class of quasi-linear elliptic equations involving critical Sobolev exponent. With the help of Nehari manifold and a mini-max principle, we prove that problem admits at least two or three positive solutions under different conditions.

Key words: Nehari manifold, critical Sobolev exponent, quasi-linear problem, mini-max principle, multiple positive solutions
