The existence of a nontrivial solution to a nonlinear elliptic problem of linking type without the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition

Abstract: Abstract. In this paper, we study the existence of a nontrivial solution to the following nonlinear elliptic problem:whereat t = 0 and subcritical at t = ∞. Under suitable conditions, (0.1) possesses the so-called linking geometric structure. We prove that the problem (0.1) has at least one nontrivial solution without assuming the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition. Our main result extends a recent result of Miyagaki and Souto given in [14] for (0.1) with a(x) = 0 and possessing the mountain-pass geometric struct… Show more

“…An inspection of the proof of [19,Lemma 2.6] also shows that η can be constructed such that η(t, −u) = −η(t, u) for t ∈ [0, 1], u ∈ X since the underlying functional I is even in u. Since D ∩ I −1 ([c − 2ε, c + 2ε]) = ∅ by (4.10), the map ϕ : I c+ε \ A c,ρ → I c−ε , ϕ(u)= η (1, u) has the desired properties.…”

“…If a(x) is sign-changing, when p = 2, the existence result can be obtained if the energy functional possesses a linking geometric structure, see [21,33,38]. However, such an existence result relies on a linking theorem on Hilbert spaces, which is based on the fact that each eigenvalue of −△ induces a suitable direct sum decomposition of W 1,2 0 (Ω).…”

“…For Neumann and Robin problems, we mention the works of D'Agui, Marano and Papageorgiou [5], Papageorgiou and Rȃdulescu [23,24,26], Papageorgiou, Rȃdulescu and Repovš [27], Papageorgiou and Smyrlis [28], Pucci et al [2,4], Shi and Li [31]. Superlinear problems were treated by Lan and Tang [14], Li and Wang [15], Miyagaki and Souto [17], who proved only existence results. The superlinear case was not studied in the context of Neumann and Robin problems.…”
