Controlling monotonicity of nonlinear operators

Analysis of PDEs 2021-10-29 v1

Abstract

Controlling the monotonicity and growth of Leray--Lions' operators including the pp-Laplacian plays a fundamental role in the theory of existence and regularity of solutions to second order nonlinear PDE. We collect, correct, and supply known estimates including the discussion on the constants. Moreover, we provide a comprehensive treatment of related results for operators with Orlicz growth. We pay special attention to exposition of the proofs and the use of elementary arguments.
