Critical points in open sublevels and multiple solutions for parameter-depending quasilinear elliptic equations
2014
We investigate the existence of multiple nontrivial solutions of a quasilinear elliptic Dirichlet problem depending on a parameter $\lambda>0$ of the form $$ -\Delta_pu=\lambda f(u)\quad\mbox{in }\ \Omega,\quad u=0\quad\mbox{on }\ \partial\Omega, $$ where $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^N$ is a bounded domain, $\Delta_p$, $1 < p < +\infty$, is the $p$-Laplacian, and $f: \mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}$ is a continuous function satisfying a subcritical growth condition. More precisely, we establish a variational approach that when combined with differential inequality techniques, allows us to explicitly describe intervals for the parameter $\lambda$ for which the problem under consideration admits nontri…
Existence results for parametric boundary value problems involving the mean curvature operator
2014
In this note we propose a variational approach to a parametric differential problem where a prescribed mean curvature equation is considered. In particular, without asymptotic assumptions at zero and at infinity on the potential, we obtain an explicit positive interval of parameters for which the problem under examination has at least one nontrivial and nonnegative solution.
