2 K. Perera, E.A.B. Silva / Nonlinear Analysis 66 (2007) Here G(x, t) = t 0 g(x, s)ds and C denotes a generic positive constant. Our goal is to study the existence and multiplicity of solutions to this problem using variational methods. The first results on critical problems for the Laplacian were obtained in a celebrated paper of Brézis and Nirenberg [3]. This pioneering work has stimulated a vast amount of research on the subject since then (see, e.g., [1,4 8,10 14,19] and their references). The main difficulty in dealing with this class of problems is the fact that the associated functional does not satisfy the Palais Smale compactness condition (PS) since the imbedding of the Sobolev space W 1,p 0 (Ω) into L p (Ω) is not compact. However, using the concentration compactness principle of Lions [15,16] it was shown in Silva and Xavier [18] that the (PS) condition holds below any fixed level if μ>0issufficiently small. Our main results are Theorem 1.1. Assume λ σ( p ), the Dirichlet spectrum of p, and G(x, t) 0 (x, t). Then there is a μ 1 > 0 such that (1.1) has a nontrivial solution for all μ (0,μ 1 ). (1.4) Theorem 1.2. Assume that g is odd in t for all x. Then there is a μ k > 0 such that (1.1) has k pairs of nontrivial solutions for all μ (0,μ k ). Corollary 1.3. If p < q < p,thereisaμ k > 0 such that the problem { p u = μ u p 2 u + λ u p 2 u + u q 2 u in Ω u = 0 on Ω has k pairs of nontrivial solutions for all μ (0,μ k ). Our theorems are related to the results of Silva and Xavier [18] and the arguments here are adapted from Perera and Szulkin [17]. In particular, the proofs make use of a new unbounded sequence of eigenvalues of p, constructed in [17] via a minimax scheme involving the cohomological index of Fadell and Rabinowitz [9], and the pseudo-index of Benci [2]. 2. Cohomological index and eigenvalues Let S denote the class of symmetric subsets of a Banach space W. Fadell and Rabinowitz [9] constructed an index theory i : S N {0, } with the following properties: (i) Definiteness: i(s) = 0 S =. (ii) Monotonicity: If there is an odd map S S,theni(S) i(s ). In particular, equality holds if S and S are homeomorphic. (iii) Subadditivity: i(s S ) i(s) + i(s ). (iv) Continuity: If S is closed, then there is a closed neighborhood N S of S such that i(n) = i(s). (v) Neighborhood of zero: If U is a bounded symmetric neighborhood of 0 in W, then i( U) = dim W. (vi) Stability: If S is closed and S Z 2 is the join of S with Z 2 = {±1}, consisting of all line segments in W R joining ±1 to points of S,theni(S Z 2 ) = i(s) + 1. (vii) Piercing property: If S, S 0, S 1 are closed and ψ : S [0, 1] S 0 S 1 is an odd mapsuchthatψ(s [0, 1]) is closed, ψ(s {0}) S 0, ψ(s {1}) S 1,then i(ψ(s [0, 1]) S 0 S 1 ) i(s). (1.5)

3 456 K. Perera, E.A.B. Silva / Nonlinear Analysis 66 (2007) Let W = W 1,p 0 (Ω), normed by ( ) 1/p u = u p. Ω Dirichlet eigenvalues of p are the critical values of the C 1 functional I (u) = (2.1) 1 Ω u p, u S 1 = {u W : u =1} (2.2) by the Lagrange multiplier rule. Denote by A the class of compact symmetric subsets of S 1,let and set F l = {A A : i(a) l}, (2.3) λ l := inf max I (u). A F l u A It was shown in Perera and Szulkin [17]thatλ l are eigenvalues of p. (2.4) 3. Proof of Theorem 1.1 Solutions of (1.1) are the critical points of 1 Φ μ (u) = Ω p u p μ p u p λ p u p G(x, u), u W. (3.1) Since λ σ( p ) and the case λ<λ 1 has already been considered by Silva and Xavier [18], we assume that λ l <λ<λ l+1 for some l. Since λ>λ l,thereisana 0 F l such that I λ on A 0 and hence, by (1.4), Φ 0 (tu) t p ( 1 λ ) 0, p I (u) u A 0, t 0. (3.2) Take ϕ 0 C(CA 0, S 1 ) with ϕ 0 A0 = id, where CA 0 = (A 0 [0, 1])/(A 0 {1}) is the cone over A 0.By(1.3), Φ 0 (tu) as t (3.3) uniformly for u on the compact set ϕ 0 (CA 0 ),soφ 0 0onRϕ 0 (CA 0 ) when R > 0 is sufficiently large, and c 0 := sup u ϕ 0 (CA 0 ),t 0 Φ 0 (tu)<. (3.4) By Proposition 3.4 of Silva and Xavier [18], there is a μ 1 > 0 such that Φ μ satisfies the (PS) condition at all levels c 0 when μ (0,μ 1 ). Regarding W as a subspace of W R and CA 0 as a cone in W R, with vertex at some point W, let and A 1 = {tu : u A 0, t [0, 1]}, A = A 1 CA 0, (3.5) ϕ(v) = { Rv, v A1 Rϕ 0 (v), v CA 0, (3.6)

4 K. Perera, E.A.B. Silva / Nonlinear Analysis 66 (2007) so that Φ μ Φ 0 0onϕ(A). On the other hand, by (1.3), Φ μ (tu) = t p ( 1 λ ) p I (u) + o(1) as t 0, u S 1, (3.7) and λ<λ l+1, so the infimum of Φ μ on B = { u S ρ : I (u/ρ) λ l+1 }, (3.8) where S ρ = { u =ρ}, is positive when 0 <ρ<r is sufficiently small. Lemma 3.1. ( A, ϕ) links B with respect to K = {tv : v CA 0, t [0, 1]}, (3.9) i.e., γ(k ) B for every map in Γ = {γ C(K, W) : γ A = ϕ}. Proof. Regarding A 0 Z 2 as a double cone over A 0,anyγ Γ can be extended to an odd map γ on K = {tv : v A 0 Z 2, t [0, 1]}, (3.10) and it suffices to show that γ( K ) B. Applying the piercing property to gives so S = A 0 Z 2, S 0 = { u ρ}, S 1 = { u ρ}, ψ(v,t) = γ(tv) (3.11) i( γ( K ) S ρ ) = i(ψ(s [0, 1]) S 0 S 1 ) i(s) = i(a 0 ) + 1 l + 1, (3.12) max I (u/ρ) λ l+1 (3.13) u γ( K ) S ρ and hence γ( K ) intersects B. Set c := inf max Φ μ(u). (3.14) γ Γ u γ(k ) Taking γ(tv) = tϕ(v) shows that c c 0 and hence Φ μ satisfies (PS) c.sincemaxφ μ (ϕ(a)) 0 < inf Φ μ (B), it follows from Lemma 3.1 that c > 0 is a critical value of Φ μ. 4. Proof of Theorem 1.2 Since g is odd in t for all x, G is even in t for all x and hence the functional Φ μ is even. We fix a μ 0 > 0 and work with μ μ 0.LetS denote the class of compact symmetric subsets of W and Γ μ the group of odd homeomorphisms γ of W such that γ = id on Φμ 1 ((, 0]). Since λ l, λ<λ l+1 when l is sufficiently large. Using (3.7), takeρ > 0 so small that inf Φ μ0 (B) >0whereB is as in (3.8), andlet iμ (A) := min i(γ (A) S ρ ), A S (4.1) γ Γ μ be the pseudo-index of Benci [2] related to i, S ρ,andγ μ.

5 458 K. Perera, E.A.B. Silva / Nonlinear Analysis 66 (2007) Lemma 4.1. For any μ 0, Fm μ := { A S : iμ (A) m} m. (4.2) Proof. Take A 0 F m and, using (1.3), R >ρso large that Φ μ 0onRA 0,andlet A = {tu : u RA 0, t [0, 1]}. (4.3) Then for any γ Γ μ, γ RA0 = id and γ(0) = 0, and applying the piercing property to S = RA 0, S 0 = { u ρ}, S 1 = { u ρ}, ψ(u, t) = γ(tu) (4.4) gives i(γ (A) S ρ ) = i(ψ(s [0, 1]) S 0 S 1 ) i(s) = i(a 0 ) m. (4.5) By Lemma 4.1, c 0 := inf max Φ 0(u) <, (4.6) A Fl+k 0 u A and by Proposition 3.4 of Silva and Xavier [18], there is a 0 <μ k μ 0 such that Φ μ satisfies the (PS) condition at all levels c 0 when μ (0,μ k ).Set c m := inf max Φ μ(u), 1 m k. (4.7) A F μ u A l+m Noting that c 1 c k c 0, we will show that c 1 > 0 and hence Φ μ has k pairs of nontrivial critical points (see Benci [2]). Let A F μ l+1.takingγ = id in (4.1), i(a S ρ) l + 1, so max I (u/ρ) λ l+1 (4.8) u A S ρ and hence A B. Therefore References max Φ μ(u) inf Φ μ 0 (u) >0. (4.9) u A u B [1] A. Ambrosetti, M.
