Caccioppoli--type estimates and Hardy--type inequalities derived from degenerated p--harmonic problems

We obtain Caccioppoli--type estimates for nontrivial and nonnegative solutions to the anticoercive partial differential inequalities of elliptic type involving degenerated $p$--Laplacian: $-\Delta_{p,a} u:= -\mathrm{div}(a(x)|\na u|^{p-2}\na u)\ge b(x)\Phi (u)$, where $u$ is defined in a domain $\Omega$. Using Caccioppoli--type estimates, we obtain several variants of Hardy--type inequalities in weighted Sobolev spaces.
