Approximation of the symmetric spectral problems with nonlinear dependence on a parameter (Q1902778)

We study the questions of solvability and approximation for eigenvalue problems with a selfadjoint compact operator depending nonlinearly on a spectral parameter. The obtained results are a generalization of well-known results [see, e.g., \textit{S. H. Gould}, ``Variational methods for eigenvalue problems'', London (1966; Zbl 0156.12401)]\ concerning linear spectral problems with selfadjoint compact operators in a Hilbert space.
