Sturm-Picone type theorems for second-order nonlinear elliptic differential equations
Electronic journal of differential equations, Tome 2014 (2014)
The aim of this article is to give Sturm-Picone type theorems for the pair of second-order nonlinear differential equations

$\displaylines{ (p_1(t)|x'|^{\alpha-1}x')'+q_1(t)f_1(x)=0 \cr (p_2(t)|y'|^{\alpha-1}y')'+q_2(t)f_2(y)=0,\quad t_1}$

in both regular and singular cases. Our results include some earlier results and generalize the well-known comparison theorems given by Sturm [19], Picone [18] and Leighton [5] which play a key role in the qualitative behaviour of the solutions.
