We prove the existence of 2N-1 distinct ordered positive solutions of a class of semilinear elliptic Dirichlet boundary value problems on Rn when the forcing term has N distinct positive stable zeros and the coefficient function decaying to the zero at infinity.

We investigate the number of the solutions for the elliptic boundary value problem. We obtain a theorem which shows the existence of six weak solutions for the elliptic problem with jumping nonlinearity crossing three eigenvalues. We get this result by using the geometric mapping defined on the finite dimensional subspace. We use the contraction mapping principle to reduce the problem on the infinite dimensional space to that on the finite dimensional subspace. We construct a three dimensional subspace with three axis spanned by three eigenvalues and a mapping from the finite dimensional subspace to the one dimensional subspace.

We give a theorem for the existence of at least three solutions for the fourth order elliptic boundary value problem with the square growth variable coefficient nonlinear term. We use the variational reduction method and the critical point theory for the associated functional on the finite dimensional subspace to prove our main result. We investigate the shape of the graph of the associated functional on the finite dimensional subspace, (P.S.) condition and the behavior of the associated functional in the neighborhood of the origin on the finite dimensional reduction subspace.

We consider a semilinear elliptic boundary value problem with Dirichlet boundary condition $Au+bu^+-au^-=t_{1{\phi}1}+t_{2{\phi}2}$ in ${\Omega}$ and ${\phi}_n$ is the eigenfuction corresponding to ${\lambda}_n(n=1,2,{\cdots})$. We have a concern with the multiplicity of solutions of the equation when ${\lambda}_1$ < a < ${\lambda}_2$ < b < ${\lambda}_3$.

We prove the global regularity of weak solutions to a conormal derivative boundary value problem for quasilinear elliptic equations in divergence form on Lipschitz domains under the controlled growth conditions on the low order terms. The leading coefficients are in the class of BMO functions with small mean oscillations.

The nonlinear fourth order elliptic equations with jumping nonlinearity was modeled by McKenna. We investigate the trends for the researches of the existence of solutions of a fourth order semilinear elliptic boundary value problem with Dirichlet boundary Condition, ${\Delta}^2u{＋}c{\Delta}u=b_1[(u＋1)^{-}1]{＋}b_2u^+$ in ${\Omega}$, where ${\Omega}$ is a bounded open set in $R^N$ with smooth boundary ${\partial}{\Omega}$.

We get a theorem which shows the existence of at least three solutions for some elliptic system with Dirichlet boundary condition. We obtain this result by using the finite dimensional reduction method which reduces the infinite dimensional problem to the finite dimensional one. We also use the critical point theory on the reduced finite dimensioal subspace.

We consider the boundary value problem with a Dirichlet condition for a second order linear uniformly elliptic operator in a non-divergence form. We study some properties of a barrier at infinity which was introduced by Meyers and Serrin to investigate a solution in an exterior domains. Also, we construct a modified barrier for more general domain than an exterior domain.

This paper is devoted to investigate the existence of the solutions for a class of the noncooperative elliptic system involving critical Sobolev exponents. We show the existence of the negative solution for the problem. We show the existence of the unique negative solution for the system of the linear part of the problem under some conditions, which is also the negative solution of the nonlinear problem. We also consider the eigenvalue problem of the matrix.
