Sign-changing Critical Points from Linking Type Theorems
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, the relationships between sign-changing critical point theorems and the linking type theorems of M. Schechter and the saddle point theorems of P. Rabinowitz are established. The abstract results are applied to the study of the existence of sign-changing solutions for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation −∆u+V (x)u = f(x, u), u ∈ H1(RN ), where f(x, u) is a Carathéodory function. Problems of jumping or oscillating nonlinearities and of double resonance are considered.

Mountain pass and linking type sign-changing solutions for nonlinear problems involving the fractional Laplacian
where ⊂Rn (n≥ 2) is a bounded smooth domain, s ∈ (0, 1), (– )s denotes the fractional Laplacian, λ is a real parameter, the nonlinear term f satisfies superlinear and subcritical growth conditions at zero and at infinity. When λ≤ 0, we prove the existence of a positive solution, a negative solution and a sign-changing solution by combing minimax method with invariant sets of descending flow. Wh...

In this paper, we investigate the existence of infinitely many solutions for a bi-nonlocal equation with sign-changing weight functions. We use some natural constraints and the Ljusternik-Schnirelman critical point theory on C1-manifolds, to prove our main results.
متن کاملMultiplicity for Symmetric Indefinite Functionals: Application to Hamiltonian and Elliptic Systems
In this article we study the existence of critical points for certain superquadratic strongly indefinite even functionals appearing in the study of periodic solutions of Hamiltonian systems and solutions of certain class of Elliptic Systems. We first present two abstract critical point theorems for even functionals. These results are well suited for our applications, but they are interesting by...
متن کاملExistence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions for $p$-Laplacian system with nonlinearities of concave-convex type and sign-changing weight functions
This paper is concerned with the existence of multiple positive solutions for a quasilinear elliptic system involving concave-convex nonlinearities and sign-changing weight functions. With the help of the Nehari manifold and Palais-Smale condition, we prove that the system has at least two nontrivial positive solutions, when the pair of parameters $(lambda,mu)$ belongs to a c...
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...
