Abstract
We prove a characterization of a nonhomogeneous A-harmonic equation and describe its generalization. We also point out its connection with 1-Harmonic equation.

Summary
Both A-harmonic equations and p-harmonic geometry are rich subjects 1–5. Many results on both topics have been derived, respectively, but there are very few papers relating both subjects. We consider the following setting: a C1 function f : Rn → R is said to be A-harmonic if it is a weak solution of A-harmonic equation div A x, ∇f ∇f. Consider the following second-order divergencetype elliptic equation: div A x, ∇f x 0, Journal of Inequalities and Applications where A : Ω x Rn → Rn satisfies i |A x, u | ≤ λw x |u|p−1, ii A x, u , u ≥ λ−1w x |u|p, where 1 < p < ∞, λ ≥ 1 are two fixed constants, and w x is called a weight if w ∈ L1loc Rn and w > 0 a.e. in general dμ wdx where w is a weight.
