Critical Neumann problems with asymmetric nonlinearity

Francisco Odair de Paiva, Wallisom Rosa

Abstract


We prove an existence result for a semilinear elliptic equation with superlinear and asymmetric nonlinearity. The asymmetry that we consider is of the type: linear at $-\infty$ and superlinear at $+\infty$. To obtain these results we apply a Linking Theorem.

Keywords
