For a quasilinear equation involving the n−Laplacian and an exponential nonlinearity, I will discuss quantization issues for blow-up masses in the non-compact situation, where the exponential nonlinearity concentrates as a sum of Dirac measures. A fundamental tool is provided here by some Harnack inequality of sup + inf type, a question of independent interest that we prove in the quasilinear context through a new and simple blow-up approach. If time permits, we will also discuss some recent progress concerning sharp sup+inf inequalities. Joint work with Marcello Lucia.
