Asymmetric, Noncoercive, Superlinear (p,2)-Equations
Journal of convex analysis, Tome 24 (2017) no. 3, pp. 769-793
We examine a nonlinear nonhomogeneous Dirichlet problem driven by the sum of a $p$-Laplacian $(p\geq 2)$ and a Laplacian (a $(p,2)$-equation). The reaction term is asymmetric and it is superlinear in the positive direction and sublinear in the negative direction. The superlinearity is not expressed using the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition, while the asymptotic behavior as $x\rightarrow-\infty$ permits resonance with respect to any nonprincipal eigenvalue of $(-\Delta_p,W^{1,p}_{0}(\Omega))$. Using variational methods based on the critical point theory and Morse theory (critical groups), we prove a multiplicity theorem producing three nontrivial solutions.
