MULTIPLE SOLUTIONS FOR NONLINEAR ELLIPTIC EQUATIONS ON COMPACT RIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS

Let (M,g) be a smooth compact Riemannian n-manifold, n ≥ 4, and h be a Holdër continuous function on M. We prove multiplicity of changing sign solutions for equations like Δg u + hu = |u|2* - 2 u, where Δg is the Laplace–Beltrami operator and 2* = 2n/(n - 2) is critical from the Sobolev viewpoint.
