Introduction In this paper, we consider the existence of solutions for the following weighted p r -Laplacian ordinary equation with right-hand terms depending on the first-order derivative: r u p r u ) f r, u, r ) 1/ p r 1 u ) 0, r,t P with one of the following boundary value conditions: u ) ) c, u d, 1.1 g u ) )) 1/ p 1, w u )) ) 0, u d, 1. g u ) )) 1/ p 1, w u )) ) )) 1/ p 1 0, h u, w u )) T 0, 1.3 u ) ) ) u, w u ) p u ) ) w u ) T p T u ) T, 1.4 where p C,T, R and p r > 1; w C,T, R satisfies 0 <w r, r,t, and w r 1/ p r 1 L 1,T ; w r u p r u is called the weighted p r -Laplacian; the

The study of differential equations and variational problems with nonstandard p r growth conditions is a new and interesting topic. Many results have been obtained on these kinds of problem, for example, Ifw r p r p a constant, P is the well-known p-laplacian problem. Because of the nonhomogeneity of p x -Laplacian, p x -Laplacian problems are more complicated than those of p-laplacian, many methods and results for p-laplacian problems are invalid for p x -Laplacian problems. For example, 1 if Ω R n is an open bounded domain, then the Rayleigh quotient λ p x inf u W 1,p x 0 Ω \{0} Ω 1/p x ) u p x dx Ω 1/p x ) u p x dx is zero in general, and only under some special conditions λ p x > 0 see 4, but the fact that λ p > 0 is very important in the study of p-laplacian problems. In 19, the author considers the existence and nonexistence of positive weak solution to the following quasilinear elliptic system: Δ p u λf u, v λu α v γ in Ω, 1.7 Δ q v λg u, v λu δ v β in Ω, S u v 0on Ω, the first eigenfunction is used to constructing the subsolution of problem S successfully. On the p x -Laplacian problems, maybe p x -Laplacian does not have the first eigenvalue and the first eigenfunction. Because of the nonhomogeneity of p x -Laplacian, the first eigenfunction cannot be used to construct the subsolution of p x -Laplacian problems, even if the first eigenfunction of p x -Laplacian exists.on the existence of solutions for p x - Laplacian equations Dirichlet problems via subsuper solution methods, we refer to 13, 14 ; if w r p r p a constant and Δ p u>0, then u is concave, this property is used extensively in the study of one-dimensional p-laplacian problems, but it is invalid for Δ p r. It is another difference on Δ p and Δ p r : u p r u ; 3 on the existence of solutions of the typical p r -Laplacian problem: u p r u ) u q r u C, r 0, 1, 1.8 because of the nonhomogeneity of p t -Laplacian, when we use critical point theory to deal with the existence of solutions, we usually need the corresponding functional is coercive or satisfy Palais-Smale conditions. If 1 max r 0,1 q r < min r 0,1 p r, then the corresponding functional is coercive, if max r 0,1 p r < min r 0,1 q r, then the corresponding functional
3 Qihu Zhang et al. 3 satisfies Palais-Smale conditions see 3. But if min r 0,1 p r q r max r 0,1 p r, one can see that the corresponding functional is neither coercive nor satisfying Palais-Smale conditions, the results on this case are rare. There are many papers on the existence of solutions for p-laplacian boundary value problems via subsuper solution method see 0 4. But results on the sub-super-solution method for p x -Laplacian equations and systems are rare. In this paper, when p r is a general function, we establish several sub-super-solution theorems for the existence of solutions for weighted p r -Laplacian equation with Dirichlet, Robin, and Periodic boundary value conditions. Moreover, the case of min r 0,1 p r q r max r 0,1 p r is discussed. Our results partially generalize the results of 13, 14, 0, 5. Let < T and I,T, the function f : I R R R is assumed to be Caratheodory, by this we mean the following: i for almost every t I, the function f t,, is continuous; ii for each x, y R R, the function f,x,y is measurable on I; iii for each ρ>0, there is a α ρ L 1 I,R such that, for almost every t I and every x, y R R with x ρ, y ρ, one has f t, x, y αρ t. 1.9 We set C C I,R, C 1 {u C u is continuous in,t, lim r T w r u p r u r 1 and lim r T w r u p r u r exist}. Denote u 0 sup r,t u r and u 1 u 0 w r 1/ p r 1 u 0. The spaces C and C 1 will be equipped with the norm 0 and 1, respectively. We say a function u : I R is a solution of P, ifu C 1 and w r u p r u r is absolutely continuous and satisfies P almost every on I. Functions α, β C 1 are called subsolution and supersolution of P,if α p r α r and β p r β r are absolutely continuous and satisfy r α p r α ) f r, α, r ) 1/ p r 1 α ) 0, a.e. on I, r β p r β ) f r, β, r ) 1/ p r 1 β ) 0, a.e. on I Throughout this paper, we assume that α β are subsolution and supersolution, respectively. Denote Ω 0 { t, x t I, x [ α t,β t ]}, Ω 1 { t, x, y t I, x [ α t,β t ],y R } We also assume that H 1 f t, x, y A 1 t, x K 1 t, x, y A t, x K t, x, y, for all t, x, y Ω 1, where A i t, x i 1, are positive value and continuous on Ω 0, K i t, x, y i 1, are positive value and continuous on Ω 1. H There exist positive numbers M 1 and M such that K 1 t, x, y y φ y, K t, x, y M 1 φ y, for y M, where φ C 1,, 1, is increasing and satisfies 1 1/φ y 1/ p 1 dy, where p min r I p r.

If f is Caratheodory and satisfies H 1 ) and H ), α and β satisfy α c β, α T d β T,then P with 1.1 possesses a solution. Theorem 1.. If f is Caratheodory and satisfies H 1 ) and H ), α and β satisfy α T d β T, and g α )) 1/ p 1 α )) 0 g β )) 1/ p 1 β ) 1.1 then P with 1. possesses a solution. Theorem 1.3.

Theorem 1.4. If f is Caratheodory and satisfies H 1 ) and H ), α and β satisfy α ) α <β β T, w ) α ) p α ) w ) α T ) p T α T 1.14 then P with 1.4 possesses a solution. w ) β ) p β ) w ) β T ) p T β T As an application, we consider the existence of weak solutions for the following p x - Laplacian partial differential equation: div u p x u ) f x, u, x n 1 / p x 1 u ) 0, x Ω, 1.15 where Ω is a bounded symmetric domain in R n, p C Ω; R is radially symmetric. We will write p x p x p r, andp r satisfies 1 <p r C, f C Ω R R, R is radially symmetric with respect to x, namely, f x, u, v f x,u,v f r, u, v, andf satisfies the Caratheodory condition.. Preliminary Denote ϕ r, x x p r x, r, x I R. Obviously, ϕ has the following properties. Lemma.1. ϕ is a continuous function and satisfies i for any r,t, ϕ r, is strictly increasing; ii ϕ r, is a homeomorphism from R to R for any fixed r I.
5 Qihu Zhang et al. 5 For any fixed r I, denote ϕ 1 r, as ϕ 1 r, x x p r / p r 1 x, for x R \{0}, ϕ 1 r, It is clear that ϕ 1 r, is continuous and send bounded sets into bounded sets. Let us now consider the simple problem r ϕ r, u r )) f r,. with boundary value condition 1.1, where f L 1.Ifu is a solution of. with 1.1, by integrating. from to r, wefindthat w r ϕ r, u r ) w ) ϕ,u )) f t dt..3 Denote F f r f t dt, a w ) ϕ,u ).4 then u r u ) ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1 a F f r )] dr..5 The boundary conditions imply that ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1 a F f r )] dr d c..6 For fixed h C, we denote Λ h a ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1 a h r )] dr c d..7 We have the following lemma. Lemma.. The function Λ h has the following properties. i For any fixed h C, the equation Λ h a 0.8 has a unique solution ã h R. ii The function ã : C R, defined in i), is continuous and sends bounded sets to bounded sets. Proof. i Obviously, for any fixed h C, Λ h is continuous and strictly increasing, then, if.8 has a solution, it is unique. Since w r 1/ p r 1 L 1,T and h C, itiseasytoseethat lim Λ h a, a lim Λ h a. a.9
6 6 Journal of Inequalities and Applications It means the existence of solutions of Λ h a 0. In this way, we define a function ã h : C,T R, which satisfies ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1ã h h r )] dr ii We claim that { ã h c d ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1] 1 dr } p 1 h 0, h C..11 that If it is false. Without loss of generality, we may assume that there are some h C such { c d ã h > ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1] 1 dr } p 1 h 0,.1 then { c d ã h h> ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1] 1 dr } p 1 ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1ã h h r )] dr d c { } c d > ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1] 1 ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1] dr d c dr c d > 0. ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1] dr d c,.13 It is a contradiction. Thus,.11 is valid. It mens that ã sends bounded sets to bounded sets. Finally, to show the continuity of ã, let{u n } be a convergent sequence in C and u n u, asn. Obviously, {ã u n } is a bounded sequence, then it contains a convergent subsequence {ã u nj }.Letã u nj a 0 as j. Since ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1ã unj ) unj r )] dr 0,.14 letting j, we have ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1 a0 u r )] dr 0,.15 from i, wegeta 0 ã u, it means ã is continuous. This completes the proof.
7 Qihu Zhang et al. 7 Now, we define a : L 1 R is defined by a h ã F h )..16 It is clear that a is a continuous function which send bounded sets of L 1 into bounded sets of R, and hence it is a complete continuous mapping. We continue now with our argument previous to Lemma.. By solving for u in.3 and integrating, we find u r u ) { F ϕ 1 [ r, r ) 1 )]} a f F f r r..17 Let us define K h t F { ϕ 1[ r, r ) 1 )]} a h F h t, [ ] t,t..18 We denote by N f u : C 1,T L 1, the Nemytsky operator associated to f defined by N f u r f r, u r, r ) 1/ p r 1 u r a.e. on I..19 It is easy to see the following lemma. Lemma.3. u is a solution of P with boundary value condition 1.1 if and only if u is a solution of the following abstract equation: u c K N f u )..0 Lemma.4. The operator K is continuous and sends equi-integrable sets in L 1 into relatively compact sets in C 1. Proof. It is easy to check that K h t C 1. Since w r 1/ p r 1 L 1,and ) 1/ p t 1 K h w t t ϕ 1[ t, a h F h )], t [ ],T,.1 it is easy to check that K is a continuous operator from L 1 to C 1. Let now U be an equi-integrable set in L 1, then there exists ρ L 1, such that u t ρ t a.e. in I, for any u U.. We want to show that K U C 1 is a compact set. Let {u n } be a sequence in K U, then there exist a sequence {h n } Usuch that u n K h n. For t 1,t I, we have that ) ) ) ) t F hn t1 F hn t ρ t dt..3 t 1 Hence, the sequence {F h n } is uniformly bounded and equicontinuous, then there exists a subsequence of {F h n } which is convergent in C, and we name the same. Since the operator ã is bounded and continuous, we can choose a subsequence of {a h n F h n } which we still denote {a h n F h n } that is convergent in C, then w t ϕ t, K h n ) ) ) ) t a hn F hn.4 is convergent in C. Since K h n ) t F { r ) 1/ p r 1 ϕ 1 [ r, a h n ) F hn )]} t, t [,T ],.5 according to the continuous of ϕ 1 and the integrability of w r 1/ p r 1 in L 1, then K h n is convergent in C. Then, we can conclude that {u n } convergent in C 1.
8 8 Journal of Inequalities and Applications Lemma.5. Let α, β C 1 be subsolution and supersolution of P, respectively, which satisfies α t β t for any t,t, then there exists a positive constant L such that, for any solution x of P with 1.1 whichsatisfies α t x t β t,one has w t 1/ p t 1 x 0 L.

We will only prove that u t β t for any t,t. The argument of the case of α t u t for any t,t is similar. Assume that u t >β t for some t,t, then there exist a t 0,T and a positive number δ such that u t 0 β t 0 δ, u t β t δ, for any t,t. Hence, t0 )) 1/ p t0 1 u t 0 ) t0 )) 1/ p t0 1 β t 0 )..36 There exists a positive number η such that u t >β t, for any t J : t 0 η, t 0 η,t.

Proofs of main results In this section, we will deal with the proofs of main results. Proof of Theorem 1.1. From Lemmas.5 and.6, we only need to prove the existence of solutions for SBVP with 1.1. Obviously, u is a solution of SBVP with 1.1 if and only if u is a solution of u Φ f u : c K N f u ). 3.1 We set C 1 c,d { u C 1 u ) c, u ) d }. 3. Obviously, N f u sends C 1 into equi-integrable sets in L 1. Similar to the proof of Lemma.4, we can conclude that K sends equi-integrable sets in L 1 into relatively compact sets in C 1, then Φ f u is compact continuous. Obviously, for any u C 1, we have Φ f u C 1 c,d,andφ f C 1 is bounded. By virtue of Schauder fixed point theorem, Φ f u has at least one fixed point u in C 1. Then, u is a c,d solution of SBVP with 1.1. This completes the proof. Proof of Theorem 1.. Let d with α T d β T be fixed. According to Theorem 1.1, P with the following boundary value condition: possesses a solution u 1 such that u 1 ) α u1 ) d, 3.3 α t u 1 t β t, t [ ],T. 3.4 Since lim r T w r 1 u p r 1 u 1 r exists, we have u 1 r u 1 ) t ) 1/ p t 1 [ t ) 1/ p t 1 u 1 t ] dt )) 1/ p 1 ) ) u 1/ p t 1 ) 1 w t 1 o 1 dt. 3.5

Since u 1 is a solution of P, it is also a subsolution of P. Similarly, P with boundary value condition possesses a solution v 1 such that which satisfies then v 1 ) β v1 ) d, 3.10 u 1 t v 1 t β t, t [,T ], 3.11 )) 1/ p 1 v 1 ) )) 1/ p 1 β 3.1 g v 1 )) 1/ p 1 v 1 )) g β )) 1/ p 1 β )) Obviously, u 1 t and v 1 t are subsolution and supersolution of P with 1., respectively.
