Solution to a semilinear problem on type II regions determined by the Fucik spectrum

Petr Tomiczek

Abstract:
We prove the existence of solutions to the semi-linear problem
$$\displaylines{ u''(x)+\alpha u^+(x)+\beta u^-(x)=f(x)\,,\quad x\in (0,\pi)\,,\cr u(0)=u(\pi)=0 } $$
where the point $(\alpha,\beta)$ falls in regions of type (II) between curves of the Fucik spectrum. We use a variational method based on the generalization of the Saddle Point Theorem.
