Title: Weighted (p,q)-equations with gradient dependent reaction Authors: Zhao Jing (Guangxi Univ. of Finance and Economics, Nanning, Guangxi, China) Zhenhai Liu (Guangxi Minzu Univ., Nanning, Guangxi, China) Nikolaos S. Papageorgiou (National Technical Univ., Zografou, Athens, Greece) Abstract: We consider a weighted (p,q)-equation with a parametric reaction depending on the gradient. Using truncation and comparison techniques and the theory of nonlinear operators of monotone type, we show that for all small values of the parameter, the problem has a positive smooth solution.
