In this paper, by Morse theory, we study the existence and multiplicity of solutions for the [Formula: see text]-Laplacian equation with a “concave” nonlinearity and a parameter. In our results, we do not need any additional global condition on the nonlinearities, except for a subcritical growth condition.

AbstractIn this paper, we consider the existence of nontrivial solutions for a fractional p-Laplacian equation in a bounded domain. Under different assumptions of nonlinearities, we give existence and multiplicity results respectively. Our approach is based on variational methods and some analytical techniques.

In view of variational approach we discuss a nonlocal problem, that is, a Kirchhoff-type equation involving -Laplace operator. Establishing some suitable conditions, we prove the existence and multiplicity of solutions.

Abstract This paper concerns with the existence of multiple solutions for a class of elliptic problems with discontinuous nonlinearity. By using dual variational methods, properties of the Nehari manifolds and Ekeland's variational principle, we show how the ‘shape’ of the graph of the function A affects the number of nontrivial solutions.

AbstractIn this article, we study the following p-fractional Laplacian equation: $ (P_{\lambda }) \quad -2\int _{\mathbb {R}^n}\frac{|u(y)-u(x)|^{p-2}(u(y)-u(x))}{|x-y|^{n+p\alpha }} dy = \lambda |u(x)|^{p-2} u(x) + b(x)|u(x)|^{\beta -2}u(x) \quad \text{in } \Omega , \quad u = 0 \quad \text{in }\mathbb {R}^n \setminus \Omega ,\, u\in W^{\alpha ,p}(\mathbb {R}^n), $ where Ω is a bounded domain in ℝn with smooth boundary, n > pα, p ≥ 2, α ∈ (0,1), λ > 0 and b : Ω ⊂ ℝn → ℝ is a sign-changing continuous function. We show the existence and multiplicity of non-negative solutions of (Pλ) with respect to the parameter λ, which changes according to whether 1 < β < p or p < β < p* with p* = np(n-pα)-1 respectively. We discuss both cases separately. Non-existence results are also obtained.

We are concerned with the following elliptic equations: (−Δ)psv+V(x)|v|p−2v=λa(x)|v|r−2v+g(x,v)inRN, where (−Δ)ps is the fractional p-Laplacian operator with 0<s<1<r<p<+∞, sp<N, the potential function V:RN→(0,∞) is a continuous potential function, and g:RN×R→R satisfies a Carathéodory condition. By employing the mountain pass theorem and a variant of Ekeland’s variational principle as the major tools, we show that the problem above admits at least two distinct non-trivial solutions for the case of a combined effect of concave–convex nonlinearities. Moreover, we present a result on the existence of multiple solutions to the given problem by utilizing the well-known fountain theorem.

We consider the existence and multiplicity of solutions to discrete conjugate boundary value problems. A generalized asymptotically linear condition on the nonlinearity is proposed, which includes the asymptotically linear as a special case. By classifying the linear systems, we define index functions and obtain some properties and the concrete computation formulae of index functions. Then, some new conditions on the existence and multiplicity of solutions are obtained by combining some nonlinear analysis methods, such as Leray-Schauder principle and Morse theory. Our results are new even for the case of asymptotically linear.
