Summary: We study the existence of a nonnegative solution to the following problem in $$\displaylines{ -\Delta u=\lambda a(x)f(u) \cr u(x) \to 0 \quad \hbox{as }|x|\to \infty. }$$ The nonlinearity f above is of "positone" type; i.e., f is monotone increasing with $f(0)>0$. We show the existence of a nonnegative solution to the above problem for $\lambda>0$ small enough. We also prove the existence of a nonnegative solution to the above problem in exterior as well as in annular domains. Motivated by the scalar equation, we further extend these results to the case of coupled system. Our proof involves the method of monotone iteration applied to the integral equation corresponding to the problem.
