“…In order to prove Theorem 3.4 it will be enough to apply Theorem 2.2 to the functional I defined in (7) under the validity of the Palais-Smale condition (of course, if the Cerami condition holds, the Palais-Smale condition holds, as well); hence, we will apply Theorem 2.2 in the version of [2, Theorem 2.2], where the Palais-Smale condition is assumed.…”

“…For the first problem the idea is to apply a standard Linking Theorem, while in the second case the variational structure is the one of the classical Weierstrass Theorem. In our results the first situation is widened to cover the quasilinear form of the fractional p−Laplacian, which doesn't let us apply the classical Linking theorem directly, since the nonlinear operator (−∆) s p does not have linear eigenspaces; thus, the use of Linking over cones provides an original opportunity, see [2], [7], [15], [16] for related cases in the local situation.…”

We consider nonlinear problems governed by the fractional p−Laplacian in presence of nonlocal Neumann boundary conditions. We face two problems. First: the p−superlinear term may not satisfy the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition. Second, and more important: although the topological structure of the underlying functional reminds the one of the linking theorem, the nonlocal nature of the associated eigenfunctions prevents the use of such a classical theorem. For these reasons, we are led to adopt another approach, relying on the notion of linking over cones.

Abstract. This paper deals with variational-hemivariational inequalities involving the p-Laplace operator and a nonlinear Neumann boundary condition. Based on an abstract critical point result, which is developed at the beginning of the paper, it is shown the existence of at least three solutions to such inequalities whereby the cases p > N and p ≤ N are treated separately. The applicability of these results is emphasized with suitable examples.

Parametric nonlinear nonhomogeneous Neumann equations involving a nonhomogeneous differential operator

Abstract. This work is concerned with the existence of solutions to parametric elliptic equations driven by a nonhomogeneous differential operator with a nonhomogeneous Neumann boundary condition. The assumptions on the operator involve the p-Laplacian, the (p, q)-Laplacian, and the generalized pmean curvature differential operator. Based on variational tools combined with truncation and comparison techniques we prove the existence of at least three nontrivial solutions provided the parameter is sufficiently large whereby the first solution is positive, the second one is negative and the third one has changing sign (nodal). IntroductionLet Ω ⊆ R N be a bounded domain with a C 2 -boundary ∂Ω and let 1 < q ≤ p. We study the following nonlinear nonhomogeneous Neumann problemwhere ∂u/∂n a denotes the conormal derivative with respect to the mapping a : R N → R N which is supposed to be continuous and strictly monotone with (p − 1)-growth. The nonlinearities f : Ω × R → R and h : ∂Ω × R → R are assumed to be Carathéodory functions being (p − 1)-superlinear near ±∞ and bounded on bounded sets while χ, λ are real parameters to be specified. The aim of this paper is to establish the existence of at least three nontrivial solutions provided λ > 0 is sufficiently large depending on the first two eigenvalues of the negative q-Laplacian −∆ q with Steklov boundary condition. In addition we give complete sign information of the solutions obtained, that is, the first solution is positive, the second one is negative and finally, the third one has changing sign.Such results are known for quasilinear elliptic equations involving the p-Laplacian and were obtained by a number of authors in the last years with different methods. (H) There exists a number δ f > 0 such that f (x, s) |s| p−2 s ≥ 0 for all 0 < |s| ≤ δ f and for a.a. x ∈ Ω. Assumption (H) implies that the function f must change sign near zero. Now, we do not need this condition on f . It is also worth pointing out that we do not need differentiability, polynomial growth or some integral conditions on the mappings f and h. Our approach is based on variational methods coupled with truncation and comparison techniques. Preliminaries and hypothesesIn this section we recall some basic facts about critical point theory which will be needed in Section 3. For this purpose, let X be a Banach space with norm · X and denote by X * its dual space equipped with the dual norm · X * , that iswhere ·, · (X * ,X) stands for the duality paring of (X * , X).Definition 2.1. The functional ϕ ∈ C 1 (X) fulfills the Palais-Smale condition at the level c ∈ R (the PS c -condition for short) if every sequence (u n ) n≥1 ⊆ X satisfying ϕ(u n ) → c and ϕ (u n ) → 0 in X * , admits a strongly convergent subsequence. We say that ϕ satisfies the Palais-Smale condition (the PS-condition for short) if it satisfies the PS c -condition for every c ∈ R.This compactness-type condition on ϕ leads to a deformation theorem which is the main ingredient in the minimax theory of the critical values of ϕ. A basic r...
