Abstract
We are concerned with the solvability of variational inequalities that contain degenerate elliptic operators. By using a recession approach, we find conditions on the boundary conditions such that the inequality has at least one solution. Existence results of Landesman-Lazer type for a nonsmooth inequality and a resonance problem for a weighted p-Laplacian are discussed in detail.
