Let $\Omega $ be a bounded open interval, and let $p\gt 1$ and $q\in (0, p- 1)$. Let $m\in {L}^{{p}^{\prime } } (\Omega )$ and $0\leq c\in {L}^{\infty } (\Omega )$. We study the existence of strictly positive solutions for elliptic problems of the form $- (\vert {u}^{\prime } \mathop{\vert }\nolimits ^{p- 2} {u}^{\prime } ){\text{} }^{\prime } + c(x){u}^{p- 1} = m(x){u}^{q} $ in $\Omega $, $u= 0$ on $\partial \Omega $. We mention that our results are new even in the case $c\equiv 0$.
