3 A simple example Ω R n is open, bounded, smooth, connected. This will be essentially proved: other situations will be just quoted. 1/5

4 A simple example Ω R n is open, bounded, smooth, connected. Take standard boundary conditions (SBC) for b : H 2 b H0. (Dirichlet, Neumann, periodic, Ω compact manifold, are SBC) This will be essentially proved: other situations will be just quoted. 1/5

5 A simple example Ω R n is open, bounded, smooth, connected. Take standard boundary conditions (SBC) for b : H 2 b H0. (Dirichlet, Neumann, periodic, Ω compact manifold, are SBC) We require simplicity of the k-th eigenvalue µ k,b of b. This will be essentially proved: other situations will be just quoted. 1/5

6 A simple example Ω R n is open, bounded, smooth, connected. Take standard boundary conditions (SBC) for b : H 2 b H0. (Dirichlet, Neumann, periodic, Ω compact manifold, are SBC) We require simplicity of the k-th eigenvalue µ k,b of b. The smooth nonlinearities f : R R satisfy f is Morse; f (c) = 0, c Hb 2 = c / σ( b). This will be essentially proved: other situations will be just quoted. 1/5

7 A simple example Ω R n is open, bounded, smooth, connected. Take standard boundary conditions (SBC) for b : H 2 b H0. (Dirichlet, Neumann, periodic, Ω compact manifold, are SBC) We require simplicity of the k-th eigenvalue µ k,b of b. The smooth nonlinearities f : R R satisfy f is Morse; f (c) = 0, c Hb 2 = c / σ( b). x l, x r with f (x l ) = f (x r ) = µ k,b, f (x l )f (x r ) < 0. This will be essentially proved: other situations will be just quoted. 1/5

8 A simple example Ω R n is open, bounded, smooth, connected. Take standard boundary conditions (SBC) for b : H 2 b H0. (Dirichlet, Neumann, periodic, Ω compact manifold, are SBC) We require simplicity of the k-th eigenvalue µ k,b of b. The smooth nonlinearities f : R R satisfy f is Morse; f (c) = 0, c Hb 2 = c / σ( b). x l, x r with f (x l ) = f (x r ) = µ k,b, f (x l )f (x r ) < 0. Theorem (Calanchi,T., Zaccur) There is g C 0,α for which the equation F(u) = b u f (u) = g has (at least) three solutions. (more later) This will be essentially proved: other situations will be just quoted. 1/5
