SynopsisIn this paper we prove existence of multiple positive solutions for a Neumann problem in ℝN/(0, R), R large, with a superquadratic and odd nonlinearity. The proof is based on the fact that in such a situation the minimum of the corresponding energy functional (which is achieved) is not an even function and that there is quite a large gap (for large R) between such a minimum and the minimum of the same functional on even functions. In the set of functions whose energy lies in such a gap, we can apply index theory to prove the desired multiplicity result.

The Nehari Manifold

In this paper, we study the existence and multiplicity of solutions for the following fractional problem involving the Hardy potential and concave–convex nonlinearities: [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is a smooth bounded domain in [Formula: see text] containing [Formula: see text] in its interior, and [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] which may change sign in [Formula: see text]. We use the variational methods and the Nehari manifold decomposition to prove that this problem has at least two positive solutions for [Formula: see text] sufficiently small. The variational approach requires that [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text], the latter being the best fractional Hardy constant on [Formula: see text].

Abstract In this paper, we consider the existence of multiple positive solutions for the 2𝑛th order 𝑚-point boundary value problem: where (0,1), 0 < ξ 1 < ξ 2 < ⋯ < ξ 𝑚–2 < 1. Using the Leggett–Williams fixed point theorem, we provide sufficient conditions for the existence of at least three positive solutions to the above boundary value problem. The associated Green's function for the above problem is also given.
