- We introduce and study the logarithmic $p$-Laplacian $L_{Δ_p}$, which emerges from the formal derivative of the fractional $p$-Laplacian $(-Δ_p)^s$ at $s=0$. This operator is nonlocal, has logarithmic order, and is the nonlinear version of the newly developed logarithmic Laplacian operator. We present a variational framework to study the Dirichlet problems involving the $L_{Δ_p}$ in bounded domains. This allows us to investigate the connection between the first Dirichlet eigenvalue and eigenfunction of the fractional $p$-Laplacian and the logarithmic $p$-Laplacian. As a consequence, we deduce a Faber-Krahn inequality for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of $L_{Δ_p}$. We discuss maximum and comparison principles for $L_{Δ_p}$ in bounded domains and demonstrate that the validity of these depends on the sign of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of $L_{Δ_p}$. In addition, we prove that the first Dirichlet eigenfunction of $L_{Δ_p}$ is bounded. Furthermore, we establish a boundary Hardy-type inequality for the spaces associated with the weak formulation of the logarithmic $p$-Laplacian.
