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 prove the multiplicity of ordered positive radial solutions for a semilinear elliptic problem defined on an exterior domain. The key argument is to prove the existence of the third solution in presence of two known solutions. For this, we obtain some partial results related to three solutions theorem for certain singular boundary value problems. Proof are mainly based on the upper and lower solutions method and degree theory.

Symmetry properties of positive solutions for semilinear elliptic problems in n are considered. We give a symmetry result for the problem in the feneral case, and then derive various results for certain classes of demilinear elliptic equations. We employ the moving plane method based on the maximum principle on unbounded domains to obtain the result on symmetry.

In this paper, we are concerned with the existence of positive solutions for the boundary value problems of the form; $$(1) u"(t) + q(t)g(u(t)) = 0, 0 < t < 1 $$ $$ u(0) = 0 = u(1), $$ where q is singular at 0 and /or 1.or 1.

This paper is concerned with the global behavior of components of radial nodal solutions of semilinear elliptic problems -Δv = λh(x, v) in Ω, v = 0 on ∂Ω, where Ω = {x ∈ R^N : r₁ < |x| < r₂} with 0 < r₁ < r₂, N ≥ 2. The nonlinear term is continuous and satisfies h(x, 0) = h(x, s₁(x)) = h(x, s₂(x)) = 0 for suitable positive, concave function s₁ and negative, convex function s₂, as well as sh(x, s) > 0 for s ∈ ℝ \ {0, s₁(x), s₂(x)}. Moreover, we give the intervals for the parameter λ which ensure the existence and multiplicity of radial nodal solutions for the above problem. For this, we use global bifurcation techniques to prove our main results.

Let $N{\geq}3$, $2^*=2N/(N-2)$ and $p{\in}(2,2^*)$. Our purpose in this paper is to consider multiple existence of solutions of problem $$-{\Delta}u-{\frac{\mu}{{\mid}x{\mid}^2}}+{\alpha}u={\mid}u{\mid}^{p-2}u+{\lambda}f\;u{\in}H^1({\mathbb{R}}^n)$$, where a, ${\lambda}$ > 0, ${\mu}{\in}(0,(N-2)^2/4)f{\in}H^{-1}({\mathbb{R}}^N)$, $f{\geq}0$ and $f{\neq}0$.

We prove the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions for a fourth order problem ${\Delta}^2u+c{\Delta}u={\alpha}u-{\beta}(u+1)^-$ in ${\Omega}$, ${\Delta}u=0$ and $u=0$ on ${\partial}{\Omega}$, where ${\lambda}_1{\leq}c{\leq}{\lambda}_2$ (where $({\lambda}_i)_{i{\geq}1}$ is the sequence of the eigenvalues of $-{\Delta}$ in$H_0^1({\Omega})$) and ${\Omega}$ is a bounded open set in $R^N$ with smooth boundary ${\partial}{\Omega}$. The results are proved by applying minimax arguments and linking theory.
