Gradient estimates for weighted p-Laplacian equations on Riemannian manifolds with a Sobolev inequality and integral Ricci bounds

抄録

In this paper, we consider the non-linear general p-Laplacian equation Δ_p,fu + F(u) = 0 for a smooth function F on smooth metric measure spaces. Assume that a Sobolev inequality holds true on M and an integral Ricci curvature is small, we first prove a local gradient estimate for the equation. Then, as its applications, we prove several Liouville type results on manifolds with lower bounds of Ricci curvature. We also derive new local gradient estimates provided that the integral Ricci curvature is small enough.
