The goal of this monograph is to offer a Morse theoretic study of a very general class of homogeneous operators that include the p-Laplacian as a special case. The authors work with a new sequence of eigenvalues that employs the cohomological index to systematically develop alternative tools such as nonlinear linking and local splitting theories to apply Morse theory to quasilinear problems. Specific topics addressed include: Morse theory and variational problems, abstract formulation, critical point theory, monotonicity and uniqueness, and indefinite eigenvalue problems.
