A class of degenerate elliptic eigenvalue problems

We consider a general class of eigenvalue problems where the leading elliptic term corresponds to a convex homogeneous energy function that is not necessarily differentiable. We derive a strong maximum principle and show uniqueness of the first eigenfunction. Moreover we prove the existence of a seq...
