AbstractIn this paper we consider a nonlinear eigenvalue problem driven by the fractional Laplacian. By applying a version of the three-critical-points theorem we obtain the existence of three solutions of the problem in

By looking for critical points of functionals defined in some subspaces of , invariant under some subgroups of O (N), we prove the existence of many positive non-radial solutions for the following semilinear elliptic problem involving critical Sobolev exponent on an annulus, where 2* − 1 := (N + 2)/(N − 2) (N ≥ 4), the domain is an annulus and f : R+ × R+ → R is a C1 function, which is a subcritical perturbation.

We obtain a pair of nontrivial solutions for a class of concave-linear-convex type elliptic problems that are either critical or subcritical. The solutions we find are neither local minimizers nor of mountain pass type in general. They are higher critical points in the sense that they each have a higher critical group that is nontrivial. This fact is crucial for showing that our solutions are nontrivial. We also prove some intermediate results of independent interest on the localization and homotopy invariance of critical groups of functionals involving critical Sobolev exponents.

In this paper we obtain, for a semilinear elliptic problem in RN, families of solutions bifurcating from the bottom of the spectrum of −Δ. The problem is variational in nature and we apply a nonlinear reduction method that allows us to search for solutions as critical points of suitable functionals defined on finite-dimensional manifolds.
