Extensions of a theorem of Cauchy–Liouville

We deal with the equations Δpu+f(u)=0 and Δpu+(p−1)g(u)p|∇u|+f(u)=0 in RN, where g(t) is a continuous function in (0,∞), p>1 and f(t) is a smooth function for t>0. Under appropriate conditions on g and f we show that the corresponding equation cannot have nontrivial non-negative entire solutions.
