Abstract

In this paper we are concerned with the multiplicity of solutions near resonance for the following nonlinear equation:

$ -\Delta u = \lambda u+f(x,u) $

associated with the Dirichlet boundary condition, where $ f $ satisfies some appropriate conditions. We will treat this problem in the framework of dynamical systems. It will be shown that there exist a one-sided neighborhood $ \Lambda_- $ of the eigenvalue $ \mu_k $ of the Laplacian operator and a dense subset $ {\mathcal D} $ of $ \mathbb{R} $ such that the equation has at least four distinct nontrivial solutions generically for $ \lambda\in\Lambda_- \cap {\mathcal D} $.
