چکیده
We will show that under suitable conditions on f and h, there exists a positive number λ∗ such that the nonhomogeneous elliptic equation −Δu + u = λ( f (x,u) + h(x)) in Ω, u ∈ H 0 (Ω), N ≥ 2, has at least two positive solutions if λ ∈ (0,λ∗), a unique positive solution if λ = λ∗ , and no positive solution if λ > λ∗ , where Ω is the entire space or an exterior domain or an unbounded cylinder domain or the complement in a strip domain of a bounded domain. We also obtain some properties of the set of solutions.

Palais-smale Approaches to Semilinear Elliptic Equations in Unbounded Domains
Let Ω be a domain in RN , N ≥ 1, and 2∗ = ∞ if N = 1, 2, 2∗ = 2N N−2 if N > 2, 2 < p < 2 ∗. Consider the semilinear elliptic problem −∆u+ u = |u|p−2u in Ω; u ∈ H 0 (Ω). Let H1 0 (Ω) be the Sobolev space in Ω. The existence, the nonexistence, and the multiplicity of positive solutions are affected by the geometry and the topology of the domain Ω. The existence, the nonexistence, and the multipli...

We consider a certain class of quasilinear elliptic equations with a term in the critical growth range. We prove the existence of positive solutions in bounded and unbounded domains. The proofs involve several generalizations of standard variational arguments.
