Nodal solutions of the \(p\)-Laplacian with sign-changing weight (Q2015508): Difference between revisions

Summary: We are concerned with determining values of \(\gamma\), for which there exist nodal solutions of the boundary value problem \[ (|u'|^{p-2}u')'+\gamma m(t)f(u)=0,\quad t\in(0,1), \] \[ u(0)=u(1)=0, \] where \(m\in C[0,1]\) is a sign-changing function, \(F:\mathbb R\to\mathbb R\) with \(f(s)s>0\). The proof of our main results is based upon global bifurcation techniques.
