Multiple Solutions for Strongly Resonant Nonlinear Elliptic Problems with Discontinuities

چکیده
We examine a nonlinear strongly resonant elliptic problem driven by the p-Laplacian and with a discontinuous nonlinearity. We assume that the discontinuity points are countable and at them the nonlinearity has an upward jump discontinuity. We show that the problem has at least two nontrivial solutions without using a multivalued interpretation of the problem as it is often the case in the literature. Our approach is variational based on the nonsmooth critical point theory for locally Lipschitz functions.

Renormalized Solutions for Strongly Nonlinear Elliptic Problems with Lower Order Terms and Measure Data in Orlicz-Sobolev Spaces
The purpose of this paper is to prove the existence of a renormalized solution of perturbed elliptic problems$ -operatorname{div}Big(a(x,u,nabla u)+Phi(u) Big)+ g(x,u,nabla u) = mumbox{ in }Omega, $ in the framework of Orlicz-Sobolev spaces without any restriction on the $M$ N-function of the Orlicz spaces, where $-operatorname{div}Big(a(x,u,nabla u)Big)$ is a Leray-Lions operator defined f...
متن کاملMultiple Solutions for Nonlinear Discontinuous Strongly Resonant Elliptic Problems
We consider quasilinear strongly resonant problems with discontinuous right-hand side. To develop an existence theory we pass to a multivalued problem by, roughly speaking, filling in the gaps at the discontinuity points. We prove the existence of at least three nontrivial solutions. Our approach uses the nonsmooth critical point theory for locally Lipschitz functionals due to Chang (1981) and ...
متن کاملUnilateral Boundary Value Problems with Jump Discontinuities
Using the critical point theory of Szulkin (1986), we study elliptic problems with unilateral boundary conditions and discontinuous nonlinearities. We do not use the method of upper and lower solutions. We prove two existence theorems: one when the right-hand side is nondecreasing and the other when it is nonincreasing. 1. Introduction. In this paper, using the critical-point theory of Szulkin ...
متن کاملExistence of at least three weak solutions for a quasilinear elliptic system
In this paper, applying two theorems of Ricceri and Bonanno, we will establish the existence of three weak solutions for a quasilinear elliptic system. Indeed, we will assign a differentiable nonlinear operator to a differential equation system such that the critical points of this operator are weak solutions of the system. In this paper, applying two theorems of R...
متن کاملExistence and multiplicity of positive solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic system with nonlinear boundary conditions
This study concerns the existence and multiplicity of positive weak solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic systems with nonlinear boundary conditions. Our results is depending on the local minimization method on the Nehari manifold and some variational techniques. Also, by using Mountain Pass Lemma, we establish the existence of at least one solution with positive energy.
