Positive solutions for elliptic boundary value problems with a Harnack-like property

Abstract


The aim of this paper is to present some existence results of positive solutions for elliptic equations and systems on bounded domains of \(\mathbb{R} ^{N}~(N~\geq1)\). The main tool is Krasnosel’skii’s compression-expansion fixed point theorem.
