We prove nonexistence results of Liouville type for nonnegative viscosity solutions of some equations involving the fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic operators \cal P^±k, defined respectively as the sum of the largest and the smallest k eigenvalues of the Hessian matrix. For the operator \cal P+k we obtain results analogous to those which hold for the Laplace operator in space dimension k. Whereas, owing to the stronger degeneracy of the operator \cal P-k, we get totally different results.
