A note on gradient estimates for p-Laplacian equations

Abstract

The aim of this short paper is to show that some assumptions in [10] can be relaxed and even dropped when looking for weak solutions instead of strong ones. This improvement is a consequence of two results concerning gradient terms: an $L^{\infty }$ estimate, which exploits nonlinear potential theory, and a compactness result, based on the classical Riesz-Fréchet-Kolmogorov theorem.
