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} $
.
Keywords: Conley index theory, semilinear elliptic equations, multiple solutions, resonance.
