Existence of homoclinic constant sign solutions for a difference equation on the integers

摘要

We consider a difference equation involving the discrete p-Laplacian operator, depending on a positive real parameter λ. We prove, under convenient assumptions, that for λ big enough the equations admit at least one homoclinic constant sign solution in Z. Our method consists in two parts: first, we prove the existence of two Dirichlet-type solutions for the equation in the discrete interval [-n,n], for all n∈N big enough; then, we show that such solutions converge to a homoclinic solution in Z, as n→∞.
