چکیده
Abstract. We consider a semilinear elliptic equation with a nonsmooth, locally Lipschitz potential function (hemivariational inequality). Our hypotheses permit double resonance at infinity and at zero (double-double resonance situation). Our approach is based on the nonsmooth critical point theory for locally Lipschitz functionals and uses an abstract multiplicity result under local linking and an extension of the Castro–Lazer– Thews reduction method to a nonsmooth setting, which we develop here using tools from nonsmooth analysis.

Existence 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 کاملSolutions for Nonlinear Variational Inequalities with a Nonsmooth Potential
First we examine a resonant variational inequality driven by the p-Laplacian and with a nonsmooth potential. We prove the existence of a nontrivial solution. Then we use this existence theorem to obtain nontrivial positive solutions for a class of resonant elliptic equations involving the p-Laplacian and a nonsmooth potential. Our approach is variational based on the nonsmooth critical point th...

We consider resonance problems at an arbitrary eigenvalue of the Laplacien. We prove the existence of nontrivial solutions for some semilinear elliptic Dirichlet boundary values problems. We also obtain two nontrivial solutions by using Morse theory.
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.
متن کاملON THE EXISTENCE OF FIVE NONTRIVIAL SOLUTIONS FOR RESONANT PROBLEMS WITH p-LAPLACIAN
In this paper we study a nonlinear Dirichlet elliptic differential equation driven by the p-Laplacian and with a nonsmooth potential. The hypotheses on the nonsmooth potential allow resonance with respect to the principal eigenvalue λ1 > 0 of (−∆p,W 1,p 0 (Z)). We prove the existence of five nontrivial smooth solutions, two positive, two negative and the fifth nodal.
