Existence and uniqueness theorems for some semi-linear equations on locally finite graphs

Abstract

We study some semi-linear equations for the $(m,p)$-Laplacian operator on locally finite weighted graphs. We prove existence of weak solutions for all $m\in\mathbb{N}$ and $p\in(1,+\infty)$ via a variational method already known in the literature by exploiting the continuity properties of the energy functionals involved. When $m=1$, we also establish a uniqueness result in the spirit of the Brezis-Strauss Theorem. We finally provide some applications of our main results by dealing with some Yamabe-type and Kazdan-Warner-type equations on locally finite weighted graphs.Comment: 13 page
