We consider a parametric semilinear Dirichlet problem with an unbounded and indefinite potential. In the reaction we have the competing effects of a sublinear (concave) term and of a superlinear (convex) term. Using variational methods coupled with suitable truncation techniques, we prove two multiplicity theorems for small values of the parameter. Both theorems produce five nontrivial smooth solutions, and in the second theorem we provide precise sign information for all the solutions.

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to extend previous results regarding the multiplicity of solutions for quasilinear elliptic problems with critical growth to the variable exponent case. We prove, in the spirit of [4], the existence of at least three nontrivial solutions to the quasilinear elliptic equation −Δ
