On a p-Laplacian system with critical Hardy–Sobolev exponents and critical Sobolev exponents

  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We consider a quasilinear elliptic system involving the critical Hardy–Sobolev exponent and the Sobolev exponent. We use variational methods and analytic techniques to establish the existence of positive solutions of the system.
