    The authors study the problem \(-\Delta u=f(x,u)\) in \(\Omega\), \(u=0\) on \(\partial\Omega\) by variational methods when \(f\) interacts with the first eigenvalue in a very weak sense. (The conditions are on the primitive of \(F\).) They discuss when the corresponding functional is coercive and when the mountain pass theorem can be applied.
