Finite energy solutions of quasilinear elliptic equations with   sub-natural growth terms
  We study finite energy solutions to quasilinear elliptic equations of the type $$ -\Delta_pu=\sigma \, u^q \quad \text{in } \mathbb{R}^n,$$ where $\Delta_p$ is the $p$-Laplacian, $p>1$, and $\sigma$ is a nonnegative function (or measure) on $\mathbb{R}^n$, in the case $0<q < p-1$ ( below the "natural growth" rate $q=p-1$ ). We give an explicit necessary and sufficient condition on $\sigma$ which ensures that there exists a solution $u$ in the homogeneous Sobolev space $L_0^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^n)$, and prove its uniqueness. Among our main tools are integral inequalities closely associated with this problem, and Wolff potential estimates used to obtain sharp bounds of solutions. More general quasilinear equations with the $\mathcal{A}$-Laplacian $ \text{div} \mathcal{A}(x,\nabla \cdot)$ in place of $\Delta_p$ are considered as well.
